Hola...Que Paso...Hello, What's Up? I haven't written for a while, so I want to catch you up. The students were on their own with their families all weekend. Each family did different things, parks, church, shopping, etc. I attended a 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration of my host daughter's grandparents! They actually got married again...for the THIRD time...once, again at 25 years and now at 50 years! What a fiesta THAT was!
