Pizza!!!

Today I took some of the El Callejon girls into town to eat pizza. To us this doesn't seem like a big deal at all....but to them it seemed like the greatest thing in the world. Most of them don't get the opportunity to leave their community very often...so when they do it's a big deal (especially when they are going to eat pizza)! They were soo cute! These girls are between 9 and 12 years old, but they all came with their most fashionable clothes, their hair styled, and makeup on. They continued to share lipsticks and fix each other's hair even once we got there. The restaurant we went to has a small playground they got to play on too. These girls definitely have an appreciation for the simple things in life. I know I could learn a few things from them. Enjoy some pictures!!
