11/24

Ok, as I type here I am listening to Shannon put herself to sleep. My new favorite sound..She is amazing but of course I am biased..I promise to put a picture up tomorrow of Shannon in her party dress for Thanksgiving. Sean my computer guy/photographer is gone so I have to step up. Highlights over the last few days are Shannon scooting around in a walkerd as she's finally grown enough to work her feet. She is really becoming the social butterfly these days.We're staying busy (AND OUT OF THE HOUSE) as much as we can, one with the dorm life here and two with trying not to wait by the phone for our call for Centensia. Today we found the NAVIDAD Store. Colombians truly go all out for Christmas. While waiting outside the store with Shannon, a women commented first on Shannon and then said how no one celebrates Christmas quite like Colombians and she is right. The store included a blinking lights display of the Nativity scene. The hair salon up the street has the entire building decked out in a winter wonderland theme including white sheets on the sidewalk to represent snow. Feliz Navidad!!!

Any day now we'll get the call, and hopefully be leaving within a week from then. Shannon is worth the wait. I will definately post pictures tomorrow!
