A Letter a Month

I get really excited when a new month passes because it means I get to open another letter from my friend Rowena! Rowena wrote me a letter for every month that I am in Uruguay. Awww. I was given strict directions not to open the letters until the month designated on the front of enevelope. I haven't cheated once (yet), but it makes me happy the first of every month because that means I can open a new one. Yay.

Visit with friends

I got to see my Emily and Nicole this week! We had a little rendezvous in Frederick. I missed my girls so much, so this was good for the spirit. It's amazing how fast time can fly by without seeing people who are dear to you. Sad. Writing this post, I realize we did not take any photos. Booo.

Frederick has a cute little downtown, where we went out to eat. Mmmm, good food, outside on that terrace. And then we went back to Emily's place to chat and watch SNL skits. Tiny Fey and Amy Poehler as Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton, so unbelievably funny. Oh, we also got some presents from a little place known as Paris, France. Thanks Em.
