Brianna turns 4 years old on the 4th!!!!

Today Brianna had a very low key celebration of her 4th birthday. Since Bri is going through viral gastroenteritis, she chose mostly bland food to celebrate her day and had just a bit of her favorite chocolate cake. We stayed home for the whole week and on her special day read books, watched her favorite DVDs, played games and took many naps. Brianna will have her princess party Sunday, February 14, with her closest family & friends. We hope by then she'll be fully recovered and able to completely enjoy a very fun day!

Little K gets a teaspoon of birthday cake ... happy girl!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR PRECIOUS PRINCESS BRI!!
Lord, we lift Brianna up to You and ask that You would put a hedge of protection around her. Protect her spirit, body, mind, and emotions from any kind of harm. I pray that she will make her refuge "in the shadow of Your wings" until "these calamities have passed by" (Psalm 57:1.) Thank You, Lord, for Your many promises of protection. Help her to walk in Your ways and in obedience to Your will so that she never comes out from under the umbrella of that protection. Keep her safe in all she does and wherever she goes.

In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen.

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!

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
