My domestic happy place

Three adults, six kids, seven bikes and one kid-trailer, and more “peanut buttah’ baws” than you can count all quite comfortably snugged into our friends’ Silver Bullet and we drove down and over to… 

…my United Statesian Happy Place.

They biked, swam and played in the sand, while I walked and walked and got freckled.

In the most exciting news, I finally got baptized (by my son) as an adult and then we two baptized my daughter!

It was such a blessed and cousin-y week!

Minus the sleeping Yeshua

Thank you, God!

Ay.

Pues, pasó otra vez.  -un gran suspiro-

I mean, it IS the first time that I’ve been alone for enough time to post in FOR…E…VER.  G is at camp for the week and the twins are swimming with the dear Ws.  My two older “daughters” are still asleep, having researched, studied and worked until so late.

So, a family vacation happened in my Domestic Happy Place, birthdays passed, the school year ended and my Dear Summer has set in.  Currently, I’m awaiting the arrival of my dear Colombian nieto o nieta!  ¡Qué Dios la ayude y proteja!

I guess I should just start in on the photos, huh?

G was able to go to a car show!  The kid was thrilled.

He’s also been getting interested in photography, turning our everyday items into art.  Seeing the beauty.

However, copying “actual art” is a bit too confining for his taste.  This activity was forced.  :(
