Ready to Share



Hello everyone! I took a little break from cleaning the house to upload the pictures from our trip to Honduras and Puerto Rico to our virtual album. As I mentioned before, we had an awesome time with friends and family. It was my first trip Honduras, even when Jose and I have been together for 12 years. I was very happy to finally be able to visit la "Madre Patria" of my honey. Jose had not been there in eight years, so he was extremely excited to be there as well. Being able to spend time with Mama Rosa, Jose grandma, was very nice and probable the biggest highlight of our trip. The other highlight of our trip was visiting "Project Manuelito", an orphanage for "ninos de la calle". It was a beautiful experience to play, interact and eat next to these incrediable kids, who've had a very rough life. The most amazing things is that these kids actually are not "real orphans". Their parents are still alive, but for different reason, alcohol, drugs or poverty, decide they don't want their kids any more. It's extremely sad but what the Lord is doing through Project Manuelito, is marvelous. It gives these kids a second chance. We are hoping to be able to help to project in a more personal level.

For New Years, we headed to Puerto Rico were we partied and partied and also had some pretty relaxing days at the beach or just chilling at home. Elizabeth had a chance to play with her cousins and with our little neighbors from back home. It was a delight to see her bloom during this trip.
