California

We are so excited we are only the short distance (13 hours) away from Enrique's family in California now.  We went for a short trip for Labor Day weekend.  I am so mad I forgot my good camera.  All these pictures are from my phone.

On our way out there.  The kids were glued to the DVD player.  It was a lifesaver.

Cousins!  Sofia, Enrique, Valentina and David eating suckers.

All the guys (except David).  Brian, Abuelito Ruben, Armando, Armandito, Enrique and Qui Que.

We stopped at El Guero Canelo in Tucson.  It was Enrique's favorite place to eat when he was a missionary there.

Bath time with the primos.

Abuelo Armando with David, Sofia and Qui Que.

It's not a Mexican party unless there is a piñata!

Enrique's grandma (we call her Chispita) and Teeny.

Chispita, Ruben, Rosa, Armando, Vivi and Qui Que.

First time at the beach!

Qui Que told us he was just "a little scared of the olas" (waves).

I am showing Qui Que how to run from the waves.

Tia Cindy and Teeny.  Teeny loved her.

Qui Que and Brian making a sand castle.

Enrique and his beautiful siblings.  Brian, Armandito, Cindy, Erika and Enrique.

Con su pa pa.

trading suckers.

This is what happens when you eat suckers and drive.

This pretty much sums up the trip.  CANDY!

Mommy and Vivi at In & Out.  Delish.

Armando and the grand babbies.

The whole fam.

This & That

Some of the best shots are taken on my phone because I always have it with me.  Here are a few from the past month.

This picture sums up Valentina.  Always on the move.

I made this shirt for Teeny from one of my old shirts.

We made this sand box for the kids.  

This was a dress my mom made Demarie when she was little.  I love how it looks on Teeny.

Vivi is not too happy about Teeny feeding her.

Vivi's favorite toy at the moment.

I love that Qui Que put on his googles to run through the sprinklers.

She fought and fought her nap and then I found her outside asleep on this chair.

One of Qui Que's favorite toys from his birthday.
