Family Night April 03, 2009

Oi!

We gave our first presentation in front of the GSE Committee as well as our friends and families. We began the evening with a wonderful buffet dinner at Viento's Restaurant. We had the opportunity to meet those near and dear to the hearts of our team members as well as those from the committee we had not yet met.

We received much appreciated feedback regarding our presentation. Our goal is to show our new friends in Rio Grande do Sul how much alike we really are. We spoke of ourselves in our broken Portugese (mine has a Spanish accent, by the way) and spoke of our region in English.

It was really good to be able to give our presentation for the first time in front of so many people who care about us! It was also the night where it really became a reality for some of us that this adventure is upon us. We are counting down the days until we say ate lago to our comfort zones for just a little while.

Thank you to everyone who was there to support us as well as those who were not able to make it. Trish, I will think of you and smile each time I see the slide of our farm animals :)

Obrigada!
