Our first visitors

Our first visitors came over Thanksgiving.  (Mom, I know that you, technically, were our first visitor when you flew down with us when we arrived!)  It was nice to have such familiar faces in our house. Robin Inks (dear friend and former co-worker) brought Hill Country grad Ashlee Mora and two Hillco Seniors, Aimee Mora and Andi Bandow. We went up to Mount Isabel, had some yummy BBQ in Jarabacoa (it was no Rudy's, but what can we do??), they worked at school and the Mak House, they watched the 'Makarios softball team' gets destroyed by a local church (some of those 'Makarianos' I'd never seen in my life!!),  visited the villages of Pancho Mateo and Chichigua and Robin did her best to catch up with dear friends in the short time she was here.  Oh, yeah, and we squeezed a couple trips to the beach.  :)  We are so grateful for their willingness to us in watching our kids so Joe and I could go on a date!  Thank you so much for your generosity in dollars and pesos while here, girls.  We had such a nice time during your visit.  Robin, Andi and Aimee--see you in March!!  :)  SLEEP OVER!
