Ship delays have just brought me an abundance of riches!
Today I was blessed to attend my Niece Laura's baby shower!! It was so lovingly done by her Mom and sisters who are some of the most creative, artistic and thoughtful people I know. The theme was locally grown and so suited the Momma to Be and the locale of Chester County, where they have all made their homes! The venue was this cute farm house / grocery called Northbrook Market Place in West Chester PA. The food and decorations were so personalized and delicious. It was also so intimate a setting with just the right mix of friends and family. I am so happy I was able to part take and be part of it all! Can't wait to meet Baby DeMarco!

Sunday Morning I went to Mass with fellow residents ( MariAnne, Amanda, Phil, Kim and Fran - left to right ) at Parroquia San Jose Esposode la Virgen Maria Church in San Jose, Guatemala. This was an extremely friendly and family oriented parish. The priest made special efforts to include all the children as often as he could through out the Mass. They went up to hug him on the altar during the sign of peace. I used my google translate much more effectively, feeling like I got 90% of the readings and the homily.
