"Rain Days" and other exciting things

It has been a busy few weeks since I last wrote. After our long break (Belgium and Amsterdam), we had school on Monday and then torrential rain that caused houses to flood, people to die, and school to be canceled for two days! Then for the weekend, the "young ones" went to Essaouira. A beach town, Essaouira was peaceful and relaxing. The days passed slowly and we had lots of fun enjoying the sunshine and 75 degree weather (in December)!!! Back to school Monday but wait, Tuesday was the Islamic New Year so NO SCHOOL again :) I didn't quite know what to do with myself with so many little "weekends". They were greatly appreciated but have made it difficult to really get anything done. The kids (and I) just want the holidays to be here NOW!
Back-to-back middle school and high school dances kept me busy on Friday...Three parties took up my Saturday...a combined Christmas church service today and a quiet afternoon at home were in order today...Now only 5 more days of school and I'll be back in Michigan in the cold and snow (but loving every minute)!!!
