It was filled with lots of yummy candy, real coffee (Instant is the main form of coffee here) and some jewelry\/purse for Mikayla.&#160; Great fun!&#160; We also got another piece of fun mail from Lylah and Lara.&#160; All of which were enjoyed immensely.&#160; I just wish I could say we still had a lot of the candy left to munch on!<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none;

He joined us for most of our meals.&#160; It was good to talk with someone from the US face to face.&#160; He lives about twenty minutes down the road from us and is hoping to volunteer some at Cabrini.&#160; He will be here for two years, so a familiar face if nothing else!<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow is mine and Ben&#8217;s 7 year anniversary!&#160; Hard to believe we have been married for that long.&#160; We plan on making bacon in the morning and playing Settler&#8217;s after Mikayla goes to bed.&#160; Who knows what else our day will include, but I can guarantee it will be filled with relaxation!&#160; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday Mikayla and I went for a little bird watching around our house while Ben did a little work.&#160;
