Holiday Update

We had an exciting Thanksgiving. We spent the day with Gil's family. My family (my mom, brother, sister) were not with us. My cousin, Nelson, was visiting from the Air Force, so my mom went to go visit him in Tampa, my brother had to go spend Thanksgiving with his girlfriend and daughter at the fire station, my sister-in-law is still considered a "rookie" so she had to work. But I am glad that my brother went to go spend time with her. Family is very important during the holiday season and I couldn't ask for more because I was with Gil and the boys!!

Erico and Elkin hep me make a centerpiece for the Thanksgiving food table, my sister-in-law, Lore, made me a beautiful tablecloth and table runner and my mother-in-law, Mariela brought a flower arrangement.

Then after we stuffed ourselves full, we played with the kids pulling them in the wagon and then hide and go seek with the kids in the back yard. It was so much fun.

At night when I asked the boys what was there favorite thing about the day, they said "playing hide and go seek"!I always get a warm feeling inside when we are able to spend quality time with family and the kids.
