¡Feliz Cumpleaños Juan Jose!

Adriana woke me up because I had asked her to since I went to sleep at 3:30am.  I had breakfast and then got ready to go to school because I had to help Carolina with the Christmas event the academia puts together for a foundation.  I didn’t really know what was going on until I arrived to the school.  The project that was there is Covi from the Carolina Park.  It was very nice; they had good kids and a good teacher.  Before the kids arrived I helped with a few things and then 5 girls from the Academia, including me, went over to the park so that we could help walk the kids to the school.  It’s only a 4-minute walk.  We met them, walked them to the school, and a lady “clown” was waiting for them.  The kids had a lot of fun; even the students enjoyed watching the kids play whatever the “clown” wanted them to do.  The kids got candy, prizes and snacks.  When the show ended we took a picture and walked them back to the park.  Next I headed back home to help with Juan Jose’s surprise party.

Yonseili was there because she wanted to make the cake for Juan Jose.  She was very stressed due to her human resources class presentation that was today.  She was looking for any excuse to not work on that presentation.  The decorations we put up were so cool and the dining room had a complete transformation.  Adriana was kinda stressed as well hoping everything would turn out okay.  As asked to, Carlos’ family came over at 3, half an hour before Juan Jose arrives from school.  Then, the time finally came and we heard the buzzer – John Joe had arrived.  So we all went into the dining room and waited for Adriana to walk in with him.  When he walked in we yelled “¡Sorpresa!”  He hugged everyone present and then we all had delicious hot dogs. 

Overall the party went well.  Juan Jose had no idea about the party and I enjoyed everyone’s company.  Carlos’ family is very easy to get along with.  The number 6 candle was blown out three times, he opened his gifts, Carlos and his nephew Alex made a dog out of a long balloon.  Yonseili couldn’t really be there because she had to leave to school for her presentation.  As a matter of fact she left about when the family arrived.  Everyone left early and we cleaned up.  I vacuumed the living room carpet because it was a mess and it wasn’t letting me breathe.  Their vacuum is nice to work with. 

Later we did something amazing… we finished the puzzle!  Martica helped us out with that.  Then I helped Joaquin with his Spanish homework.
