In this past week, a lot has happened! First, on the 19th, we took a road trip to the Dominican Republic with the Ayars! We stayed at a resort called "RIU" in Puerta Plata! It was absolutely gorgeous there!
Here is the building we stayed in...
And the beach, the beautiful beach...
Gorgeous, just plain gorgeous...
Ethan and I!
Just watching the waves crash up against the shore was amazing...
My family...
And the Ayars family!
Every night before dinner, our families took a walk around RIU, it was awesome. Every single time we walked around, I was continually amazed by God's creativity in his creation...
RIU also had a pool, though it was COLD. Every time I jumped in, I had to do water aerobics for a few minutes to warm up!
Sweet little Sofia...
They had a beach volleyball court (which we used quite often during our stay!) and they had pool volleyball too ! Which as you can see, we also used quite often!
After spending a relaxing five days in the the D.R. we traveled home, just in time for Christmas!
We had our little special Christmas dinner at the Ayars house, with a pig leg we got in the D.R.!
It was good...
One thing that I've wanted for a long time was a second ear piercing...
So my Nana got me an ear piercing kit for Christmas! Last night Dad pierced them for me!
I love them!
Now for an update on the cats...
After being lost for a couple days, Cally's kitten "Rosie" is now safe in her home, growing quickly, and happy as could be...
Merry Christmas!

There are days I long for Haiti and you mysteriously post on those exact days, today is one of them. Each post fills that piece of my heart that seems missing. I love seeing the beauty through your eyes, hearing of your adventures for they make me feel as if i'm there. Keep posting sweet girl!
