Ok, friends...

Here are some pics from the School where CC, Sarah and I taught English. For the most part, many of these kids are my cousins, because they are from my village, Auala, Savaii Samoa.
Tomorrow I'm hoping to write a little on what all we did there, but for now you can check out my pics. :)
Alofa to you all.

The School Children in Auala, Savaii Samoa who stole my heart











Teaching English was SO much fun... They were eager learners. Its at times like these that remind me just how difficult the English language is, and how little I really know about it.

All these kids are from Year 8, so ages 10 to 14. Many times we'd get students from year 7 and 6 so I think we had up to 35 kids at the most.
They all loved Micah and CC... I often laughed because when I'd wash CC's shirts the back of them would be SO dirty, and I figured out that it was because kids were always patting him on the back, giving him hugs or slapping him on his back as their best friend.
