OUR KIDS ARE GROWING FAST

Praise God for his blessings!!! Our little ones sure are growing fast. Sara and Ingrid are taking ballet classes, they are enjoying it, especially Sara. She is very good following instructions. Ingrid is a little shy still and I have to be checking on her to follow the teacher's instructions. However, it is so much fun to watch them do their steps and it is wonderful that parents are allowed to stay and watch. When I was a child I didn't have the blessing to take classes so I thank the Lord for this opportunity that they have. I'm learning some steps myself and some new ballet words. On the other hand, Isaac is growing fast. He is 4 and 1/2 months. A friend just borrowed me a bumbo seat, they are wonderful, you can carry it anywhere. Today, he was my little model, sitting in his bumbo seat and I snapped some pics of him. He is a cutie. We thank God for our little blessings.

Little Ballerinas

We signed up the girls for the Little Ballerinas class with the Rec. Dept. They begin Sept. 23 and run through December. They are soooo excited! Giovanna got them some ballerina shoes and costumes at some local consignment stores. She did a wonderful job! The girls can't wait!!

MACHUPICCHU- CUZCO - PERU

I couldn’t help to post some pictures from my trip to Cuzco almost 9 years ago. I did it when I was single in company of my sister Sandra. Who will say that I will marry a couple years later with a godly man, have 3 beautiful children and move to another continent. But God is not done with us yet, it is possible that we move to another continent again (twice for me and first time for Frank).
Anyway, let me tell you a little bit about this place in Peru. Cuzco is the archaeological capital of the Americas and the continent’s oldest continuously inhabited city. Massive Inca-built stone walls line most of Cuzco’s central streets and form the foundations of colonial and modern buildings. The streets are often stepped, narrow and have beautiful sights.
Machu Picchu is South America’s best known and most spectacular archaeological site. During the busy dry-season months of June to September, you might see up to thousands visitors at the Lost City of the Incas, as it’s popularly known. Despite the huge tourist influx, the site manages to retain its air of grandeur and mystery and is considered a must-see for all visitors to Peru.

Who's who?

A photo of me in 1970 and a photo of Isaac in 2011. Any resemblance? LOL

ISAAC IS 8 WEEKS

Our little boy is surely growing, praise God! He will turn two months July 9th. He is still waking up in the middle of the night but he will sleep more hours, which makes it a little easier for me (mom). He has really been a joy in our lives and our girls are enjoying having a baby brother. This past week, my neighbor Sarah, who happens to be a photographer took some pictures of him. She has a wonderful ministry and she did a great job. Enjoy!

Fathers Day 2011

Had a wonderful fun-filled Fathers Day with my family. From home-made cards to ice-cream at Goodberry's and dinner at Tropical Picken Chicken, and worship together, it was truly a blessed day from my Heavenly Father. Here are the latest photos of my beautiful family... Sara's school picture (PreK); the first portrait of Sara, Ingrid, and Isaac together; a beautiful portrait of my Giovanna and our son; and Isaac's first protrait.
