I know it's impossible to believe, but I went to an activity without my camera. =( Our Spanish branch had an activity where the Relief Society got together, and we painted some small gifts for neighbors and friends. It was a neat experience. I have to say- I learend a lot of new vocabulary today! I have never talked about paint brushes or painiting in Spanish... and my mind surely was overwhelmed at times - but I did it! It was a lot of fun.
2 sisters also showed us how to make traditional dishes from their countries. I love cooking, so it was fun to see and learn something new. One of the recipes was pan dulce (sweet bread) from Argentina. We all got the recipe, and I just might make it as a neighbor gift. I love to do unique things, and what is more unique than making a traditional food from another country?!
Some of the children in the branch were there today also. There is a 3 year old, Amy, who just sat on my lap and let me hold her. She is so beautiful! She has the deepest brown eyes- almost black- and it was neat for me to be able to just be with her. (She has 3 sisters, and her mom was there with all 4 of them!)
One of the sisters had her camera at the activity, and hopefully I will be able to get a few of her pictures to put on my blog. I would love for everone to be able to see my branch. What a wonderful group of people, I love them so much!!
