Daddy's happiest day!

Sunday, January 31st in the morning, Daddy's happiest time! All three girls are safe & sound back on American soil.

Tierra Santa Theme Park

We celebrated Abu Nino's birthday a day early (on January 29th) at the Holy Land Theme Park in Buenos Aires. We revisited Jesus' birth through his resurrection and ascention plus many other intersting sights in this replica of the city of Jerusalem. It was a very hot day but we managed to see several shows, walk up to a replica of calvary and see Jesus' crucifiction, and eat some local armenian fare as well. Happy Birthday, Abu Nino!!!!

Great times with our cousins

Tio Raul's gifts to the girls

Dinner with Sergio, Naty, German, Tuti & Tio Raul. A fantastic evening!

More fun at the pool ...

So great to see Tio Arturo & Tia Chuly after son many years. Their kids and Brianna played quite a bit in the pool.

Bibi's childhood home from 1-7 years of age. It was great to see it again, it now seems so small!

The whole gang spent a relaxing time together in Obera over our second weekend in Argentina.

Rain ... and lots of it while we were there. It rained almost every day and we enjoyed a break from the summer heat

Playing paddle right after swimming, Sandra & Bibi did a lot of things together and had lots of fun. Tia Sandra is a really fun Auntie and helped Bibi a lot with both girls

Brianna, Tia Sasa and Abu Ivon made homemade Ezequiel bread. Very yum!

Santa also brought another princess dress for Brianna. Fun times dressing up at Abu Ivon's house!

Grandma Galante turns 89 years old!

On January 15th, we took Grandma Galante out for a nice lunch on her 89th birthday. We also had Sabbath lunch at her house and she wore her favorite Hawaiian dress we gifted her. She really enjoyed the girls, especially meeting her third great grandchild, Kiara

GREAT times ...

Walter, Patricia's fiance, teaching violin to Brianna and then performing her favorite Christmas songs. Great Vespers!

We stayed at Patricia's cute little house during our time in La Villa. She was out nanny for almost a year when Brianna was about 2 years old. Their bond continues to this day. We had such a great time enjoying each other's company, drinking mate, going to the pool and just hanging out

BFFs with babies

Buenos Aires Part I - Piro Family

We spent the first four days of our trip with the Piro family. Elbio is one of my Dad's best friends from Peru. We just had the BEST times together, long talks, great food, fun in the pool and an AMAZING private music concert by Amanecer Vocal Group. Can't beat that!

Princesses Paulina & Brianna

We're back!!!

This past Sunday we got back home and right into Daddy's arms! We had a fantastic time with family and friends in Argentina and can't wait to upload more pics in the coming days. In the meantime, Happy Sabbath to all of you!

Happy New Year & off to Argentina!

Bibi and the girls will be heading down to Argentina in just two more days. They'll be there for three weeks, enjoying summer with Bibi's family and friends. We're so very excited about all the fun times & great memories they'll get to create while down there. Please keep them in your prayers, that they may have safe travels and a great trip overall.

second Annual Veiss Christmas

This year we were so blessed, most of all, by the love & friendship from the Veiss Family. We planned to have a post-Christmas celebration dinner and open gifts together but the Veiss girls got sick the day before so we decided to open gifts separately this year (bummer!) in hopes that we could spare our little ones from the same malady. Gifts were placed under the tree and all of us loved our gifts. Here are some pics. Thank you Victor, Suzana, Lea & Mia. Love you guys!!!!
