A Busy Summer

Seeing as this week was the first week of fall, I think it is time for an update from our busy summer....(that and it has been 4 months-hey, my computer was messed up)! Here are some of our highlights from our summer traveling and other fun!

We started the summer by flying to North Carolina, to my niece's graduation from High School.

Trying to take Lilu's diploma

Snuggling with "Tia Tita"

with his cute cousins!

Matthew spent some time with his great grandma-Abuelita Haydee

Next, here in SoPas, Matthew was finally old enough for nursery (woo-hoo!)...

and then, I became nursery leader! (uh-oh!)

Enjoying the bubbles and toys

I love this picture of his wild ways-running around without a shoe

this pic was too funny....he seems to be threatening Joy with a toy cucumber!

(sorry Kimberly!)

Fourth of July was fun too, Matthew had a great time watching the SoPas Parade...

Then, our neice, Priscilla came to visit us for a month! It was so much fun! We miss you Pri!

Some fun pics at the Sta.Monica Pier and the LA Arboretum with our friends!

Finally, We were able to go "home" to Costa Rica and visit my family

Here are some pics at an animal farm we visited

Matthew and his cousin Joshua (the closest in age)

Feeding the piglets

Then, my sister and her kids and Spencer and I were able to go white water rafting in CR! It was so much fun!

Spence and I getting drenched

yup, that's us under that waterfall!

Taking a swim!
