This past Friday we had an exam in our Language class. After studying typical Costa Rican parties, our exam was, with another class, to plan a party! Everything from decorations, food, games, and clean up. Some of the requirements were to speak in Spanish the whole time, include some jokes and use a Costa Rican idiom or saying. I was in charge of the game. So I bought a pinata and filled it. It was a lot of fun! Below are a couple of videos of our time in the party. The first one is of me talking a little bit in Spanish. I am telling the class there are surpises in the pinata. The next video is of me hitting the pinata and breaking it! Be sure to push pause on music box on the side bar to the left to hear the video sound! Enjoy.
Also this week we had a cultural day. The grade school and high school put on a performance with many different performances from other cultures. They had a song in Korean, different verses of the Bible read in different languages, a video of many different people from around the world, and a human video (which was my favorite) to the song "Go Light Your World" by Kathy Troccoli. They worked very hard to get ready for this day and we were privledged to be a part of it. About half way through the performance I was looking at Evie and noticed I had dressed her in her little Mexico dress. Actually that morning she picked it out herself. So I don't know if she knew what she was doing or not but she fit right in for the day! Below is the link to click on to see the pictures. Just double click on any picture. Have a great week!
