Returning the favor

So, we received another 8 Christmas cards since the last post. That was exciting. We also realized that we haven't discovered where we hid at least two others for the trip back to MX. So that bumps the number up to 10 more for a total of 40 cards. Thanks!!!


I also want to put a disclaimer on here. We are not keeping track of who has and hasn't sent us a card, so I don't want anyone feeling bad if they didn't send us a card. We know that you all love us with a card or without. So, don't feel bad (you can always send us one next year :)).


So it is only fair that we 'send' out a Christmas card too, so here you go. You can even print it out and post it on you wall, door, refrigerator, or wherever you post all your Christmas cards. You can make it the wallpaper on your computer or you can just look at it on the blog. I give you complete freedom to do with it whatever you want. We will most likely never ever know what you do. So, no worries.







So, since the last post, not a lot has happened here. I, Regg, am back to teaching. I have my two classes in the elementary (Primaria). They are at 11:50 and 12:40. I also do a recess detention at 10:30 for those who need a little extra encouragement to behave in class. In the evening I have an adult class from 7:30-8:30. There are 6 (maybe 7) people in that class and I generally enjoy that class a lot. I think I am definitely more of a secondary teacher than an Elementary teacher, but I am getting along.




Bev has kept busy with several different things. She is able to fill the day with a number of things. She is a great cook and even lets me help out in the kitchen when I come back from class. She spends a lot of time on the piano/keyboard, especially now that she can record herself (Thanks, Warren, for the tip on Audacity). She is working on her share of 'Thank You's" a lot more diligently than I am working on mine. And I can't forget her love of the word game "Every word". She got a new high score yesterday. Next time I may have to interview her about some of this stuff.


In other news. I was going to put breakfast in the oven a half hour ago but I kinda forgot about it after I lit the oven, so breakfast is going to be a little later than was planned. Oh, well. What are you going to do?



Much love to all! Until next week, adios!

Is lighting the oven something like lighting a campfire??? Just trying to get a feel for how primitive it is down there ;) It's so nice that you help Bev with the cooking! And thanks for the Christmas card, we will need to find it a place of honor!
Love,

Man, Missy keeps beating me to the first comment! Lighting the oven sounds similar to the way I light my stove since the automatic lighter doesn't work. It's great fun really;-) The days sound like they are just packed down there. If you ever get bored, I will gladly forward on some of my homework!
love,
Anita

We finally took family pictures and hope to send out a "Happy Valentines" Day Card. Or it may not come until April Fools Day, but we will try to get you one.

We love the Christmas card ~ thanks! Glad to hear that school is going well and you are both keeping busy. School detention though, . . . what a mean teacher! :) Hope you have a Happy Birthday Regg! Jesse has been reminding the others that yours is just days before his.
Love you lots, Warren & Cindy JNNJIJ

Hey Bev,
How do you play the word game- "Every Word"? Haven't heard of that one yet. Sounds like it might be one to play while we get this blizzard up here in the north. Lots of Love to you both. The Beard's
