John's Birthday (and Happy Halloween)


Today is John's birthday! We celebrated by taking a bus to the Costa Rica Outward Bound school for outdoor adventure education. There he did research. Then we went out for lunch (Micah, Ethan & Kendal were in school) and went grocery shopping at Peli. John then walked to St. Gregory's to read/write and to pick up the kids. Marcie baked a birthday cake for tonight and we even found ice cream to go with it. After dinner we will have a birthday celebration! Hope you all have a Happy Halloween tonight!

Happy Birthday to you John. I hope you got our card, and you enjoyed the day. Sounds like you are all having a wonderful adventure. Uncle Gary and I will be having supper with Joy tonight-- Todd is gone to a conference so we thought we'd help out at bath time. Love you all and hope to talk to you soon-and see you as soon as your webcam is installed. Love Auntie Sue
