Hi Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year Everyone!
We have so much to post and not enough time!
So we are going to start with the beginning of this new year and work our way back a little bit.
We had a crazy end of the year. Lots of work and definitively not enough time. We were teaching, serving Mexican dinners,and we also had lots of orders of cookies... We were really tired when Christmas came.
We earned our little vacation at the beach, that is for sure!We left on the 26th and came back on the 3rd, it was great. We cant wait to go back.
Now we are working again and trying to open our school so we can teach groups and make more $$$$.We are also hunting for a new school for the kids, we have until next week to decide since they start their school year in February. Well that is a little bit of what is going on with us here. We miss everyone and hope to hear from you all! Love the Millers

Our Vacation at the Beach (The New Years)

One of the beautiful sunsets that we saw.
Fireworks time!! Nothing like the 4th at home, it was so much better!! It was fireworks non stop for 15 min.
Look at CJ!!
They were yelling Happy New Year,in Portuguese and English, it was really cute.

All of the lights were boats that came to watch the fireworks.
New Years dinner it was delicious!

They were really happy. Christmas is the best time of the year for us, especially for the kids.


They were happy!! We went out after Christmas dinner to see the lights around town. We got back home it was 3:30 a.m and we still had to wrap all the presents needless to say that we wrapped presents until 6:40 a.m Christmas morning.
The decoration in this place was beautiful and the coolest; everything made with recycled things most of the decoration was made with the big 2 liter coke bottles.
It was beautiful and it looked like alot of work.
CJ having fun after opening his present from Gabe and Jenna. He loved it.
