Mama and Papa Garcia in Honduras!!! : )

Hi Everyone!!!

Sooo finally after about a month of being out of site I'm beginning to settle back into my little town of Nacaome and start working/saving lives :P jkjk

What have I been doing this past month you ask?? Well, first my parents came to visit!!!

I underestimated their bad- assness! The heat may have been a tad bit overwhelming, especially in my site and public transportation might have

been... interesting, but they made it back home safe and sound!!!

Thank you parents for coming to visit! I had sooo much fun! Love you!!!

Here are some pics of their trip!

Hey all,

So here I am, "on sight" (I'm such an idiot, lol), during one of my work days in Nacaome, just one of the projects I am working on. Check it out.

On other news, life is treating me well, possibly taking a trip to El Salvador tommorrow for a few days! ( : AND my PARENTS are coming to VISIT in MAY!!! YAY!! SOOOO excited! I'll make sure to post some pics of their little vk.

Anywho, I really miss you all and I hope everyone is doing well.
