Go Tar Heels!!!!

Ok this is a little late, but if you are surprised, then you obviously don't know me. Anyways the Tar Heels won the National Championship this year and needless to say I was more that a little excited. I REALLY wanted to be on Franklin Street jumping over bonfires. I'll have to say that it is one of the most home-sick moments for me in Honduras. Beyond that, there wasn't anyone I could share my excitement with. I tried to explain it to my friends here in Honduras, but it kind of loses its excitement after a 5 min explanation. So young Isaac was drafted into Tar Heel nation. Just to be clear, I had planned on his forced conscription since he was born, I was just going to wait until he was potty-trained. So as the clock was winding down Issac got out of bed (was taken out of bed-just a question of symantics), and watched the last few minutes of his first Tar Heel championship. I can't tell you how excited he was. In the absence of the words I have submitted the pictures of said championship celebration. Just for the record, I wanted to see if he could jump over our "bonfire"(see picture below) but his mom stepped in and played the good parent role.






I know that it looks like he is yawning, but he is actually cheering, (I promise)

Our trip to Cayos Cochinos

"Our new car"

I wanted to share a couple of pictures of our new car. It is a Suzuki Aerio 2004 and we really like it. It was a good decision to buy it since we are gonna be here for another 9 months probably, at least that's what they said at the U.S consulate.

CHIMINIKE

This was about two weeks ago. We had a lot of fun.
Enjoy the video!!!

It has been a while since I posted anything on the blog. Life has been a little busy lately, but we are doing good here in Honduras. I wanted to post a few pictures of Isaac eating a mango, it looks delicious doesn't it?. I also wanted to post a few pictures we took while we were eating at T.G.I Fridays and Isaac and Mark were playing like little kids. Isaac of course is a little kid but Mark is not a kid any more, even though he acts like it most of the time(*note from Mark: I object to your western-world, masculine-dominated society's definition of "kid" -- if you compare me to Methusala, for example I am still very very young and have quite a bit of growing to do--end note from Mark).
We also wanted to let you know that we already received the last packet of papers from the lawyer and on Monday we are going to go to the U. S consulate to drop it off. After we do that we are gonna have a waiting period of 6-9 months for the next appointment and that is when we will know if I can go back to the U.S or not.
We also bought a car a few weeks ago. It was getting expensive and dangerous to take taxis all the time, plus we are gonna be here for a little while and buying a car was definitely worth it. I don't have to worry about dropping a cell phone on a taxi or riding in buses and getting my camera stolen again. I will put a picture of our car next time I post something.
We will keep you posted if anything new happens.
We are very exited to hear that my parents-in- law are coming to Honduras this summer, we are planning to take them to beautiful places here in Honduras. Anyone who would like to come is welcome!!!
Enjoy the pictures!!!!!

We had a delicious dessert, brownies with icecream hummm!!!
