Meeting Bristol Palin
Caro and I attended the Making a Difference for Life 2010 Fundraiser Banquet here in Visalia and had the honor of meeting and talking to Bristol Palin, the keynote speaker. She made a powerful case for life and in all we had a great evening, along with about 800 plus other guests. We were very impressed and had a blast hanging out. At the end, we were given a couple of roses as a souvenir. Nice touch.
Happy Birthday, Zoe!
While Tia Ile was in town, we helped precious Zoe blow her very first candle. Ava (the big sis) and her friends played with our girls and we all had a really good time.
A weekend with Tia Ile, Camila & Giovanna
With another Argentine in the house who loves food, Bibi's been making some yummy dishes from back home and other new ones as well. Homemade pizza, Argentine style, with all the bells and whistles, Argentine pasta with homemade pesto and yum chocolate cake were among the most favorite. Auntie Ile & the girls came back for the weekend and we had a blast in the pool and just hanging out.
Happy Birthday, Kevin!
Right after Mateo's bash, we jumped in the van and headed down south to Redlands to help Kevin Schimpf celebrate his 4th birthday, firefighter style. About 60 people, mostly close family and friends, showed for the occasion. We all enjoyed great food, lots of games, bounce houses and an unforgetttable trip to the local Redlands Firefighter Station where Kevin & family took a quick spin in one off their big trucks. Feliz Cumple, Kevin! What a GREAT day!
While down in the Redlands area, it was AWESOME to see the Kangs. We had a great evening catching up while the little ones played. Great seeing you guys!
Mateo turns 5!
To kick start our second week of September, we all helped Mateo celebrate his 5th birthday with a great party at Boingos. All our Latino friends were there and the kids had an absolute blast playing in and out of the fun bounce houses. Feliz Cumple, Mateo!!!
Relaxed Sunday at home
We have a new guest resident in our home for a few short months. Her name is Carolina Trisca, a fellow Argentine currently residing with her family in Montemorelos, Mexico. Her boyfriend, Nestor Celaya, is a native Visalian and they've been dating for about a year. She is visiting Visalia for a few months, taking ESL classes and learning as much as she can about this culture. We're super excited about having Caro living with us until the end of November.
September Recap
Our Latino friends come to our home for our weekly get together. We all had a great time in the pool and enjoyed good good food.
