2011 - 2013 Class Memories

Miss Raquel & I at "Light Up the Night" Prom

Awesome.  
In that one word, I can summarize this whole school year.  God has answered so many prayers this year!  I am learning Portuguese, my students are AMAZING, and I love my friends and adopted family here in Brazil.  I want to share some of my class's favorite memories from this year.  
I will be home Thursday night!  I can't wait to see all of my family and friends!  I can't wait to lead Kid's Worship and teach at Sabine Creek Ranch!
