Hi, its me again! Thanks for coming back to read...even though it has been a while since I've posted! I guess I could blame it on getting a schedule back together, the general business of life, vacation hangover, or just plain laziness....but let's just say that the fact that you're reading this means you've already forgiven me and so let's get down to business. Here are a few things that have been going on in my version of the southern hemisphere: thing one.School has started! We marched back into the Longaví schools on March 7th...more specifics on that next week! thing two.We had a garage sale at church...sort of. Read about it HERE. thing three.3) We decided last weekend to take a trip to somewhere the doggies could run and play freely...so we went camping...just a few kilometers from the Chile/Argentina border...on a volcano. HERE you can see Jon's breathtaking pictures and Elise's lovely ability to tell a story. DON'T miss the epic video at the end. thing four.Fall. Fall happened. And, as if he knew I was having troubles rearranging seasons & months in my head, my friend Facebook helped to remind me what season it was. It was also helpful during a vocabulary review with 5th grade to practice: "Fall: March, April, May / Winter: June, July, August"...now I just have to work on internalizing it. #lifeinthesouthernhemisphere thing five.My puppy had a 'sterilization' surgery at the end of February and is recovering well. I think she was upset with me for a few hours, but we talked it through and soon her snuggles resumed.
She knows {"Sit" / "Lay down" / "Venga" (Come in Spanish) / "No (No in Spanish)"}. Technically I don't believe this makes her bilingual, just confused. She continues to be adorable and snuggly and I recently learned that she is a mini-puma, born to climb mountains.
