Well, besides from being Awesome day, 4th of July is also teacher day in Peru. So this afternoon the kids put together a big party for all the teachers. There were jokes, dances, junk food and games. There was a sack hopping relay where there was a student and a teacher on each team. Nicolas and I destroyed everyone. Then there was an eating contest, and I won that too, but I will admit the kids gave me a smaller portion.
Matt made an awesome shirt for 4th of July, he just colored USA RULES on the front of a white t-shirt, the wrote FREEDOM on the back, drew and american flag on one sleeve, and an eagle on the other. Our plans to finish up our 4th of July celebration is to go to the most American resturant here which is a Pizza place that caters to all the surfers in the summer, then we are going to watch the movie The Patriot. Some people blow up some really loud fireworks almost every night so we are going to try and find those and light a couple off.
I have a couple prayer requests...
Gerson is really sick with some sort of cough, and they haven't been able to take him to the doctors yet because the house moms are really busy. Also his sister Betsy is really sick too.

We missed you at the family gathering, Kev, but we're all so proud of the work you're doing. Clint says he loves reading your blog, but he doesn't know how to leave a comment, so I'm showing him how now! Love, Kristal
