We have had a very fun-filled Christmas break celebrating many family activities which has included a lot of Christmas cookie baking and playing soccer and fixing puzzles.  Joel’s dad, Earl, came down to Ecuador to be with us for the holidays as well which has been nice.  We were also able to slip away for a couple of days with Earl to the beach.  A big highlight for this trip was for us seeing baby sea turtles hatch out of their eggs and make the trip to the ocean.  Witnessing this personally was one of the things on Kim’s bucket list.  Enjoy the pictures!
