We are in Costa Rica, but before we update you on that, we
don’t want to forget about the week we spend in Florida with family and
friends. We enjoyed time of
relaxation and memory making. I
think I packed and un-packed and re-packed our suitcases about 4 times (just
trying to stay under 50 lbs. each).
Olivia came to visit, and the next time we see her she will be a mother!
We celebrated Eric’s birthday with a rained on BBQ at
Eddie’s parents house. Even
with the rain, we had an enjoyable afternoon. I got to try out a new recipe: Crème Brulee! And Eddie got to play with fire!
Tata (Eddie’s grandfather) had purchased a large stuffed
tiger many years ago. Since his
passing, that tiger has been a reminder of him and his sense of humor. Jaden was introduced to that
tiger. As you can see, he
started out a little nervous but quickly warmed up to it.
Jaden also got to spend a little time with his great
grandmother, Bisabuela. She
enjoyed his besos along with the rest of the family.
Jaden also had his first opportunity to play along with the Berrios family as they make beautiful music together. He loved it! And Eddie enjoyed playing guitar and singing with his sister, too!
It was a special time before we headed to Costa Rica for 6
months. Although we plan to see
our families in just 3 months, the adventure has been emotionally taxing on
me. I am excited, nervous,
over-whelmed and yet totally at peace about the path God has led us on. I know He is holding my hand. Even so, a tear or two slips out every
once and awhile with out my permission.
