Well--it is time for the Oktober Fiesta. This is the 6th annual Oktober Fiesta, and it gets crazier every year. The Spanish Teacher and I dreamed this up 6 years ago, thinking that it would be fun to have a gathering with all of the German and Spanish students along with their families. It has now become legendary (if that can happen in just 6 years.) This year we have the Delaware Saengerbund Dancers coming. We will also have a mariachi Band playing. This year, we are expecting almost 300 people!

As far as adoption news, Mark and I are working on updating all of our information. We had our fingerprints taken (yes, once again) We have had our medical physicals, and next week we will meet with our social worker to update our homestudy. Lord willing, this will be the last time that we have to update our paperwork. They have placed children with people who have LID's through May 18. We should be hearing more in a few weeks about the next batch. We are hoping for a big one!
