Every evening now, we have kids outside our gate, singing Christmas carols: We wish you a Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, and others. Their goal? to get goodies after singing--they each get a piece of candy. Not a bad way to spend an evening...or 10 of them, as it would be. And they come in little groups, so you have 5 sets a night at least! Our dog has quit barking at them they are so frequent. It's good fun for them. And it's helping us get to bed earlier--as long as our lights are on, they come a'singing!
Right now, Ben's sister and family are visiting us. Ty is loving it up, as his cousins are a blast to play with. Ellie is learning the art of playing along with another almost-2 year old. They've had good fun making fishing rods, roasting one of our chickens over an open fire (pictures soon coming), and taking an adventure walk thru the mangrove swamp (with mud up to their waists!) and across the beach...

Wow! That's amazing that they do it for 10 nights straight! Do you see the same kids over and over or do they rotate neighborhoods?
