Santa Visits Again With More Goodies and Fun for the Children at Semillas de Amor

This year the children at Semillas de Amor were blessed with not one but two wonderful Christmas parties. December 23rd Santa arrived loaded with gifts for the children. The Cooper Family Foundation and Futuro de los Ninos Foundations funded and organized the Christmas party. Thank you to both Foundations for your continued support of Semillas de Amor.

What a party! New shoes, sweatshirts, socks, toys, McDonald’s, cupcakes. We had a blast! Bodhi and Dooney, our Tibetan Mastiffs loved the party but were not happy when the clown (as clowns will do) got a bit too close and threatening to Santos. I was a bit afraid that we might have clown parts strewn around the yard but all went well. Good to know that we are well protected.

Thank you to everyone who hosted the party; Gary, Ellora, Mary, John and Chrissy.

Santa Arrives at Semillas de Amor

For the second year in a row Monica Zelaya, family and friends arranged a wonderful Christmas party for our kids at Semillas de Amor. It is always a treat for us when Guatemalan families are involved in our children’s home. The kids had a wonderful time as did all the adults. I hear that Santa is making a stopover to see the kids one more time today!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at Semillas de Amor to all of you and your families.

FUEGO

The active volcanoes in Guatemala never cease to amaze me. Fuego is the closest active volcano to us. And as the crow flies it is very close. The photos are of Fuego in action yesterday.
