Independence Day





Today is Guatemala's Independence Day. Last year, we woke up to parades and fireworks in Antigua. It is much quieter around here. The New Life school had a day of activities yesterday to celebrate though. The teachers and students worked very hard to decorate their classrooms, prepare special food, and to present a program for the parents. Many of the children dressed in native costumes. I especially liked the little boys with painted on beards and mustaches!
