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 :)
