Hard work & jacuzzi time

Right after our scrumptions Spring Tea event we changed clothes and went into the back yard to get the soil ready for the sod. We worked hard digging and piling dirt and later relaxed, terere in hand, at our favorite place.

Little Princesses Brianna & Ella

Ella & Brianna sat next to each other at the Spring Tea table and thoughtful Auntie Sherri had placed a box of goodies for each of them to keep them happy during the event. Each of the ladies at the table had a gift box also. We all had a terrific time!

Ella & Brianna had special mini porcelain tea cups to drink tea from.

Mom & Daughter Spring Tea

On March 21st, Girlfriends Unlimited hosted an amazing Spring Tea for all Mommies & Little Ladies of our church. The room was absolutely beautifully decorated, the food was incredible and all the ladies were decked out in their High Tea best. Bibi & Brianna had a great time bonding over tea, pastries, salad and wonderful meditations on how special it is to be God's princesses. We sat at Auntie Sherri's table and she did an incredible job of decorating and hosting. Thanks, Sherri! You rock!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMPEE!!!!

Today we all celebrated Ampee's birthday by treating him to good Mexican fare in town and then going for some good old ice-cream at Baskin & Robins. Brianna loved her chips with bean salsa and Ampee LOVED his chile relleno, rice & beans.

Jer really liked his tacos with salad

Grupo Latino get together at our home

We had a fantastic time on Wednesday afternoon & evening. Several of Bibi's friends from Mexico and South America were able to come play and have dinner at our home. All kids dressed up in their fave costumes and played non-stop for several hours.
Argentine "meat" pie, pasta, veggies & "chicken" nuggets for the kids, salad, fruit and homemade chocolate coconut and almond chocolate pie for dessert. Yum!

Jeremy had lots of fun playing with Mimi & Kiara

Almost 11 years later and it still fits!

Brianna had been requesting Mommy dress up in her wedding gown for some time so Bibi finally got her big golden box out of the closet and got her wedding dress, tiara and veil together for some fun pics with her very own "flower girls." Brianna was super excited to get her special dress on that Amee gave her and Kiara reluctantly wore the same flower dress Brianna wore for Rony (Bibi's brother) & Sandra's wedding.

A GREAT weekend with the Clarks

Last weekend we all drove to Stockton for a memorable few days of AMAZING company, food, and R&R. Thank you, guys! We got back home recharged & inspired

Isy and Bri played together really well, even though "please share" was heard pretty often throughout the weekend. Pretty passionate Argentine blood in there for sure!

Great Sabbath School program for all the girls. They all really enjoyed it!

Joel & Jeremy taking a break from super yummy vegan cheese blintzes Gisele prepared for us. The food, throughout the weekend, was nothing short of spectacular. Can't wait to making more memories together next time!
