I just got a package notice at school today and went to the post office in town with Rodney to go pick it up. It was a big package sent from 9 Continental Blvd, Mom, I think you got our old address mixed up with our new one, and I couldnt wait to open it. It was full with fun holiday things: Christmas lights, Christmas decorations, Christmas gift bags with tissue paper, wrapping paper, Christmas recipes, cookie cutters, Christmas CDs, little Christmas stockings with the initials B and J for Jenny and I, chocolate from France, thanks Dad!, and a beautiful Thanksgiving card, haha. I soooo loved it, my mom must know how much I love Christmas, especially Christmas music, and how much I needed those decorations and gift supplies! Thanks Mom! I love you!
Well this week has been pretty chaotic and super crafty. Our ever cluttered classroom has been laying under a layer of glitter and glue for the past week. Soon it will be over. I love my kids. They are so cute. They each memorized a line about the holidays to say during our special flag ceremony performance on Monday and they are so eager to tell me their line, to know if theyre saying it right and be praised for learning it so well. I love hearing them try to speak in English. Words like hang and remember arent the easiest for them to say. They are so stinkin cute. Today we made Santa Claus ornaments and they took them home. They are excited for their flag ceremony performance on Monday and then their big dance in the Christmas Show with the whole school on Tuesday. Then I wont see them until January, Ill be really excited to see them the day we come back.
Tomorrow is the big dinner that the schools putting on for us, it should be really nice, were all excited. And there will definitely be a lot of dancing so Rodney and I will get to show off our moves when they put on salsa and cumbia.
Im so excited to see home and my family and friends and Rugby!!!!!!
One week to go.....

Hey Britt,
Oh it is always fun to get a package. One from home is even better! Everyone is waiting for you to get home. We are doing the cookie swap today in a bad snow storm at your Mom's. All the neighbors are coming. We had so much fun this year but wish you were going to be there. Carl came home and surprised me yesterday afternoon. It is nice to have him home. Well better go I have cookies about ready to come out of the over. Have a great day and can't wait to see you! I saw Jenn yesterday.
love ya,
Aunt Jackie
