Dia de la Independencia

Tomorrow, September 15th, is Costa Rica's independence day. Today at school, during our morning break, the little kids had a desfile (parade) and the adults walked in it too. Heath and I bought the wrong thing because they had run out of what we needed. We looked super cool.

Also, this morning, we experienced our first tremor of an earthquake. Heath didn't really notice it because of the construction at his house, but I was snoozing with my alarm clock and was certain that someone had come in and jumped on my bed. It was very cool.

Hope you are all doing well!

Buenos Tardes de Costa Rica!

We are thoroughly enjoying the rainy season here in San Jose, Costa Rica. We arrived last Monday and have finished our orientation at the language school. We begin classes tomorrow morning at 7:30. We are looking forward to learning and studying here with our new friends and our Tican families. It is going well so far. We will keep you posted as things progress.

Speaking of things progressing...Heath proposed on Saturday night and we are engaged! Here is a picture for you to enjoy :)

Better Late than Never

I realize this is late, but here is my graduation photo. Lots of exciting things going on here. Going to Costa Rica in August to attend Spanish language school. Be back in December. I will probably try to stay up to date with the blog because I won't have a phone for 4 months. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.

New York Baby!

Violated Again

My poor Black Beauty. She was violated again this past weekend while I was in New York. I got back to her on Monday night around 12:15 am. I went to charge my cell phone and noticed that my charger was gone. So was the face to my practically brand new CD player. Awesome. And my favorite brown sunglasses. Yes, those are gone too. And they made off with some Post-It notes as well. I mean seriously, who needs Post-Its besides me??? Absolutely ridiculous.

Pictures from the Big Apple to follow shortly...
