Week #2 November 23-30

Hola Familia and Amigo's (Friends and Family)
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL!
We have so much to be thankful for. Thank you all for being in our lives. We had a great thanksgiving. We cooked a very common meal in the Streeter household, breakfast dinner. Eggs, bacon, potatoes, OJ, and Pancakes. This week the kids started school and are doing really well. We spend the morning doing school and then the afternoons we play at the beach or pool or both. Days here start at about 6am. Cory and I have coffee by the pool while the kids wake up. We are getting used to absolutely nothing...NO TV, NO PHONE, NO CAR! It is amazing what you can really do without. It is hard I will tell you the truth but nice. Time almost stops here. Each day is the same. You can really just enjoy each day as they are. We have met Rachel who lives in the house next to us and she offered to watch the kids. She is a trusted person by many of the expat families. The other day she had 14 kids over at her house to swim in the pool and hang out. The kids loved having other kids around. Kai wants to hang out at the pool in the hopes kids will come and play. That is one thing we need to do is get to know some of the local kids. I am going to try and upload some pictures. We will see how long this takes. :) Love you all!
