A family visit

edit: there are three blog posts of pictures from today so make sure to see them all!

aldo and i visited the family of three of the girls who come for my girlsweekends. they have 11 kids!! and their son has a baby (i didnt meet him, but i met the mom who is only 17!)


he is so precious





they were all making flour out of something that is a bit like a potato. no one wanted to take a picture






the kids were setting off little bombs that they have for sao joao



and we were roasting peanuts. ever eaten them soft. DELICIOUS.




the dad was busy working away





and i even helped with this part (although you cant see)



then they sold this, which is a typical thing for sao joao... they sold 500 bags or something like that







look at this view over the passagem. you have no idea the poverty that lives amongst such beauty. maybe its Gods gift to them.... and that week i returned to spend the whole day with them making cakes and such. it was a really wonderful day AND i got to meet the cousin of Tata (who lives in my house). she's two months old and so precious. i want her to move into the fazenda, but i dont think irma leticia would like that
