In the month of February, we had a week of special activities with the kids which we called "Dulces Vacaciones"! We spent several mornings in the swimming pool where Jonas gave some swimming lessons and the kids played and laughed a ton. After lunch, we had devotional time and then some time for crafts and games.

One afternoon the kids went to Cerro Lambare, which is a high "hill" on the outskirts of the city that gives you an amazing view of Asuncion. Many kids have never seen more then what is in their neighborhood so outings like this are very special for them. The next special outing that week was to the zoo! The kids had a blast visiting all the museums and seeing the animals. They played some games in the park and we had lunch together under the trees.

They also spent 2 afternoons doing crafts!

| Making little soaps! |
 |
| A friend from my church came to teach the children how to do decoupage! |
And of course there was always special meal times and devotionals.
All in all, we had a blast with the kids and were able to bless them with lots of love, laughter, the Word of God and give them special memories! We hope to do this again soon.. =)
