Today we FINALLY caught up on Like a Sun Cat...as shown by the last 24 new posts. It was practically an all-day effort. I know Joy's mom,Steph's dad and our 3 other Followers must have been thrilled:-)

Today we started off at midnight with 7 of us packed into a cab (8 with the cab driver) singing Happy Birthday to Noe, who turned 23 today! We improvised with matches into a cracker for her first "birthday cake", and look forward to celebrating with her officially next weekend.

Today we celebrated Thanksgiving with our house mates with a feast filled with stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, macaroni corn casserole, rolls, fruit salad, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, pumpkin bread, chicken (ahem turkey is hard to find and way overpriced), and a whole host of desserts (apple pie, pumpkin pie, pumpkin cheesecake...)!!! Needless to say, it was amazing. After sitting down for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, we had friends over to share in the food and traditions. We spent the day playing signs (yes, we brought it to Argentina!), jamming out on guitars, playing cards, having awesome conversation and of course eating entirely too much food. The party only ended when we lost power due to a thunder storm.

Today we woke up and spent the vast majority of the day in the kitchen. Steph cooked 3 apple pies (that's 25 apples peeled, cored and cut) in preparation for tomorrow's Thanksgiving Day feast at the house, and Joy cooked a delicious empanada lunch.

This evening after the Luz Urbana meeting we got together with friends to eat pizza on the rooftop, hang out and watch a movie. Here are some of the chefs...well really the expert chef Cris along with Cacho and Pablo, who were helping, or "helping" :)

We spent another beautiful Thursday afternoon in the park next to the water, and this time our friend Valen came to hang out!

Tonight we had our 4th week of English Talk: Charla Espiritual in Bar Classics, with a lot of new faces, a few new songs, and a discussion by David on how salvation = Jesus + nothing. Awesome day, amazing night.

Today we spent the afternoon planning at Luz Urbana and then met some of our English Talk girls at Buen Pastor for some terere, English studying (they all have finals coming up), and discussions about life. Beautiful friends in a beautiful place :)

Today was perhaps the most exciting English Talk to date, with ENGLISH TALK KARAOKE! We were Kerri and Kimmy, the "Koolest Karaoke Kouple" that ever lived. Most of the people sang at least one song and everyone had fun jamming out to Coldplay, Avril Lavigne, Queen, and many others!
