mi familia Guatemalteca...

Benjamine, Maribel, Dennis and Lucas... the four who have welcomed me into their home this year. I had the privilege of taking the 2007 Perez-Smith family photo. Benjamine (13) skates for the national team, so afternoons and weekends are filled with training and competitions. Maribel teaches everything from floral arrangement classes to Alternatives to Violence for women throughout Guatemala, is taking English classes, often serves as a translator in various capacities and the list goes on! Dennis is the director of communications at Cedepca where I have been working this year and is involved in multiple organizations throughout the community. Lucas (15) plays soccer and is an avid skate boarder, and is generally responsible for the family dog- Cookie.
