Today I celebrated my birthday in Colombia! It was my "second" birthday here. Okay, so you know I am MUCH older than two, but, it is my second birthday here. I celebrated my birthday here in 2005, as well, when we adopted Sean. And let me tell you, the ladies here can throw a party! :) Well, actually my Mom initiated the whole thing. She was so sweet and ordered two cakes for me for my birthday to share with everyone in the hotel. We all had a great time at dinner, and then of course dessert. I held Isabella as I blew out the candles. After we had cake for my birthday, the ladies here got a little crazy and started blasting music from the kitchen. Next thing you know many of us are in the kitchen dancing to Colombian music. Then after the kitchen "party", everything moved outside to the backyard. Now, I would love to say that the party continued on because it was my birthday, but that's not the case. Today is actually a holiday in Colombia and they are celebrating - La Inmaculada Concepción - The Immaculate Conception. For this holiday, they light candles outside to light a path for the conception of Mary. It was really neat to see them do this tradition again this year. I was able to see it in 2005 as well. After they lit the candles, then the party began. Everyone was out there dancing and having a great time. Then the next thing we knew, bottles of Rum were coming out and glasses were being passed around. The party was just getting started.
Nana and Isabella had fun too. But Isabella kept a low profile and just watched the party. She sat with Nana by the Christmas tree and watched everyone outside. She must have been having so much fun, that it wore her out. Next thing we knew, she was fast asleep.
Anyway, it was a fun day here. As you can tell the night was a blast and during the day Mom and I went to Crepes & Waffles again. It was just as good as the first time. If we have time, I'm sure we will go again before we leave. Tomorrow we're off to the local market again.
Well, I better get to bed. Lots of love to all of you.
Buenas Noches from Colombia.

Happy Birthday DEB!!!!
Wow looks like you had a great birthday Deborah! Thats really neat that you have been in Columbia twice now for their Immaculate Conception holiday. That will make you all the more knowledgable about it so you can teach your children about their birth country. I just think it's so great that you are able to participate in the traditions while you are there. I'm sure it's also a great way to pass the time!

Happy Belated Birthday! It looks like you had a good day. It also looks like the Immaculate Conception holiday celebration was fun. You will have to teach Tim, Natalie and I all about it. As always you are in our thoughts and prayers. We love you!
