SENTENCIA!

WE FINALLY HAVE SENTENCIA! Dad went out to Faca to sign the papers on Friday. Now only a week and a half to two weeks for passports, visas, birth certificates, I.D's etc. before they can come home. Mom, Dominic and I will be flying home Monday night without them. We have been here six weeks already and we were told only 4-6 weeks now the whole process is going to take 7 or 8. Ugg. Oh well. I can't wait to be home in my own house, my own room and my own bed. I never knew how much I would miss home. Please pray that all goes well with all the paperwork that has to be done so the kids can enter the states. Love you all!

Jamie Duque Park, Thursday

 Possibly one of the most awesome places I've ever been. The seven wonders of the ancient world, Dante's divine comedy ride, Ali Baba and the 40 theives ride, life size replica of the Taj Mahal and so much more! As you can probably imagine the Dante ride was a little freaky. I screamed a little (more for the fun of screaming then anything else though). There were lots of demons who moved and looked like they were coming to get you. XD CREEEEEPY! Ok, it wasn't that creepy. But it was really dark. 
We went with a family from Virginia who are here with their nine year old daughter, Christine, and their new twelve year old girl, Leidy. They are a really nice family and their girls are both very sweet!

Monkey in a tree! (I'm gonna have one of these for a pet when I have my own house :P)

 Ossolotte, I just wanted to go in there and pet it. It was so sweet looking.

A guinea pig gave birth to three little babies a few minutes before we got there. 

They were really cute but the mother was ignoring one of the babies.

It was really sad 'cause I knew it wouldn't survive very long. :(

It was a long day but it was worth it.
