Just Saying Hi!

...see you later!

Our weekend

We had another visitor this weekend! Karen just finished backpacking her way across the north of Spain and came to visit us after she finished. Here's a few weekend highlights:

At the Castle

Swimming Lessons! Finally a picture of Katie in her cap and suit! EVERYONE has to wear the hats. Darn, there's no picture of ME in my very stylish swimming cap...

At the cafe after swimming lessons

While we were at the monastary they were getting ready for a big wedding inside the church. There was paparazzi around and we could tell this was someone famous. We asked a security guy who it was and he told us the name of a famous football (soccer) player and it was his son's wedding. When we got home I was telling my neighbor about it but I couldn't quite remember the name of the player. I said it was this or this - do you recognize one of those. She kind of looked at me like I was nuts and of course she recognized the name. I think it was like me asking someone if the guys name was Joe Montana or John Montana. Duh!? Who doesn't know that?
Isn't it fun being a foriegner?


Katie just hanging out at the monsatary. Not a bad place to play!

At Hard Rock Cafe digging into a brownie sundae together. Yum!!!

Karen caught this shot of J and I totally by accident! Cute! Can you see my growing belly?

One-and-a-Half

Yep! The little cutie-pie is exactly one-and-a-half today! She's growing well and doing great!

---------------------

She's been enjoying finding hats and putting them on. Today she found her swimming cap. Looks good with the dress, I think.

Yummy yogurt popsicles! Want some?

I think she liked it!

Getting Around

A friend from CA came to visit over the weekend to see what's going on here. One of the places we went was up to the top of this really tall monument with a great view of the city. Here's some pictures of our cutie there.

Getting into trouble

Trisha, I blame you. I think she learned this from her cousin. :-)

The Beach

We had a great day at the beach last week. You can see J and Katie having lots of fun and the beautiful blue sky.

But it started more like this. She was not impressed with the sand. It feels strange!

But she got used to it and played and played.

And she even went in the water and LOVED it!

It was cold too! Maybe Daddy has his play-in-the-water partner now!

Smile!

Ready for church on Sunday morning.
