Visit to the Orphanage

Hi Natalie, Serena, Justin, Andrew & Jordyn - how are you? We hope you are all doing good. Sounds like you all had a fun day at Jordyn's birthday party. We hope you didn't get too many bruises from the roller skating. We are sure you all did very well on the skates. Aunt Jessica sent us a picture of all of you. It sure was nice to see you having so much fun together.

The other day we went to the Orphanage. This is the place here in Mazatlan that takes care of children that don't have any parents or their parents can't take care of them any more for some reason. This time of year they don't get very much fruit so Grandma and Grandpa took them some apples, oranges, watermelon, bananas and some popsicles. It is very hot here in Mazatlan right now and they don't have air conditioning at the orphanage so they will really enjoy the popsicles. Since Halloween is coming, we also took them some Happy Halloween suckers.

The day we visited the Orphanage one of the little girls, Paulina, was celebrating her 6th birthday. Here is a picture of Paulina's birthday cake and a little video of the other children singing Happy Birthday to her in Spanish.

So cute. Justin just watched both of the videos and in the first one, when Grandpa says "how are you?" Justin said that he was doing good and he said "Bye!" at the end. After the birthday video, he clapped.

I asked if he had anything to say and he asked me to tell you..."Thank you for telling us about the duck."

We LOVE this blog!
