This past week we all talked about relationships; family, friends, and romantic. Our speaker was Larry Ballard from Madison, Wisconsin. It was fun to learn more about how best to relate to people and good guidelines to have for relationships.
On Thursday we all raised a fund from staff and students to buy a real, live Christmas tree. So a few of us went to pick one out. It was funny because we made sure that it smelled good and we laughed at for sticking our noses in all the trees. Once we got it in the room though the rest of our group admitted that it smelled good. So, it worked out.
Then Friday my parents came to town. I took them to tacos for dinner with most of the students. Then a few of us went back to my parents hotel and played in the freezing pool. Then on Saturday we went downtown to a river walk called Santa Lucia, then went to the governor's palace and went through a museum there, it was all in Spanish though so they didn't really understand most of it. Then we went to the shopping district and wandered around looking for Christmas presents. We had a relaxing evening with a typical Mexican dinner and hanging out.
Sunday I went to church while my parents listened to a podcast sermon from back home. Then Amber came with us to the old neighborhood, where on Sundays there is an artisan market. Then we went to the flagpole-lookout. That evening we celebrated Christmas.
Monday morning they joined us for worship and then went to the airport to go back to Houston.
