Surprise!

Last Tuesday I hopped on a plane to NY (with a week of planning) to surprise my sister, Erica, who just had a baby. Erica had been kind of bummed that neither Beth nor I would be around after Jonas, my nephew was born. Beth had the idea of coming home to surprise her and my dad suggested to me that I come home too. I was in NY Tuesday through Sunday and had an amazing time hanging out with Erica, Mike, Maisie, Jonas, Beth, and my parents. I also got to see my aunt Barbara and my uncle Randy. Jonas is doing really well and Maisie is adjusting (...). I know she will be an awesome big sister and someday she´ll realize how boring her life would have been had she been an only child. I also got to see Meghan, Amy, and Madalyn in NYC for dinner. Although I´m still happy to be in Guatemala, it was so great to spend time with family and friends. I really love and miss you all.

And to my family, I can´t wait until Christmas.
