In Spanish - Thanksgiving is translated to: El Día de Acción de Gracias - The Day of giving thanks. Oh how I wish that I more often lived Una Vida de Acción de Gracias - A life of giving thanks. I had so much to be thankful for last week, including some wonderful time with our kiddos, a visit with Vicki, an overnight trip to Juan Dolio for a mini-vacation, and a wonderful Thanksgiving meal with all of our Casa Monte Plata kids and staff.
