This year's Santa picture is pretty much the same as the others.  O-well...Merry Christmas!

Nicaragua Trip

We got back late last night from our 5 day trip to Nicaragua.  I took close to 300 pictures, so these are just some to show the different things we got to do.  We hiked up a mountain on Sunday afternoon, which has a great view of Jinotega.

 

Angela and I helped Becky organize baby supplies for the Casa Maternas.

We passed out SMILE boxes.  This was one of the older girls.

Always time for a coffee break!

We were there for the Mision's Christmas party...the kids helped decorate the tree.

Aaron making the kids smile :)

Lots of Smile boxes! 

Visiting a Casa Materna.

Our group from Grapevine with Benny and Donna (missionaries our church supports).

Our last stop on Wednesday was to a preschool.  These kids were the most fun, and we got to give them dresses and clothes too.  They were so excited!
