I think this says it all

family Trip to santa Cruz...

We went to Santa Cruz Saturday July 10th. The whole family had a great time, except that mommy forgot the camera so we had to buy a disposable. Then Adriano hated the wind. IT was fun to let the kids explore

Hankey and Crystals Wedding!

Thr bride looked stunning. The groom was emotional, it was a perfect day :) The ceremony was beautiful... I loved the sand unity activity. The location of the reciption was beautiful. Congratulations to the 2 of you! Their wedding was also an opprtunity for MArco and I to have our own litlle date night! IT was nice to spend the evening just the two of us. Here are a few pics!

Bowling with the Luso gang

Hello blogging world, I feel like I have been gone forever. A lot has happened in the last three weeks. School has started, we went to the beach, Lily had her first luso performance. Adriano turned 9 months old and started drinking from a sippy!


Today we went out for our end of the summer part with our Luso gang. The kids had a great time. Manteca Strike zone is nice and ! Lily had such a great time bowling with Isabella, Lindsay and Zach! Here are few pictures. Adriano had a good time too!

Last Summer Trip

So after my first week an a half of school we manged to get away for the weekend, much to my disapproval because we are going through some tough times, but Marco knew what was best and God blessed us in many ways. We headed out to Monterrey for the weekend, it was a little chilly but the kids where still able to enjoy the beach and the park!






















Lily and I had such a great time at Denise the Menace park. It is a great kid friendly zone with tons of different play structure. My personal favorite was the red rolling pin slide. I also enjoyed the suspension bridge. Their was even a smaller tot area that Adriano enjoyed, it was hard to take a picture as I was helping him go down the slide though :(

9 months old

Adriano turned 9 months old on August 20th. Adriano and Lily are the apples of my eyes. I truly enjoy spending each waking minute with my children.

~ I love the way that he moves about. Ariano can now roll/scoot. He is attempting to take off on his tummy.

~ I love the way he giggles when he gets up in the morning.

~ I love the way he splashes about in the tub.

~I love the way that he laughs.

~ I love to watch him smile.

~ I love to watch his face as toys light up an play music.

~ I love the way he babbles. He is currently saying bababa, or mmam.

~ I love the way that him and his sister have a screaming fest.

~ I love the way the he looks at me so seriously when he is about to do something wrong like pull on the table runner.

~I love to hear his little cries for attention the minute I get home!

~ I love the way that he interacts with Lily andd Lily with him.

~ I love the fact that you are getting a month full of teeth. The two front teeth have began poking through

Park fun

One of my favorite parks to take the kids is central park in MH, they have a great water feature a hammock! Here are a few pictures from our little trip to the park:
