Vista Elementary
This month I pulled Bella from Sunset Elementary and put her in Vista School, which is a charter school for elementary students. She, along with cousins Devin & Savannah, is enjoying the experience there much more than at Sunset. She gets to have dance class, computer class, musical theater, art, choir, and 2 other classes 2-3 times per week. This is handy for me, because I've had Bella in dance class on an extracurricular level since she was 3. This is a much more affordable way for her to have the chance to learn dance.

El Salvador
What can I say about El Salvador? I can say that going there gives me an immense appreciation to live in the US.
When we first got to El Salvador, we went to a shopping center. It was weird to see a large amount of people wearing soccer jerseys that were royal blue. We later learned that the national Salvadorian soccer team was going to be playing an international game that night. The soccer tournament was on TV that night. Our apartment had 16 units in it. Across from us there was another apartment building, housing another 16 units. Many of the houses had the soccer game blaring. The Salvadorian team scored 2 goals that night. The reason that I know that is that when a goal was made, the surrounding game-watchers in our neighborhood roared! Horns were honking, fireworks were booming, people were hollering.... It was actually really fun to hear. I loved the patriotism that the soccer game seemed to provoke. It got me thinking about how we don't really have a national sport in which most everyone get involved and how cool it would be to have something like that.
