birthday weekend!!

I am getting bad at forgetting to update my post! Agian, I have to add two weekends at the same time...o well! Here is all of my fun from LAST weekend!!

As many of you know, it was my Birthday on Monday the 15th. To start my birthday off well, I went to a women's bible study retreat at the Skylark Center outside of Managua. That night, Jessica and I got to wack a pinata for our birthdays! We had a grand old time and a work out to boot!! The retreat was enlightening and relaxing which was awesome!

After I got back from the retreat, I went to a lovely restaurant on the edge of a crater in the city. Because it was Valentine's weekend, the place was all decorated with red, pink and white. The best part was that they had a live band and salsa dancing!!!! Of course we made our way up to the dance floor and released some of our stress from teaching all week! Later they had a DJ and they played some songs like the YMCA and some Elvis too. I can't deicide who my favorite dancer was. It was either the 75 year old woman who could still groove, or the little girl who was just learning to ramba!

On my birthday, which was on Monday, I got to go out for some icecream with some friends and catch up on skype with family and friends! It was great to recieve so many messages and calls!
