Daddy's Birthday

We celebrated Daddy's birthday this week! The girls decided to make his favorite cake (carrot) and take him out to his favorite restaurant in town. Afterward, we all piled into bed, including Luna & Raya, to watch a movie. There are so many ways that daddy supports us and often they go unnoticed, it was good to slow down and celebrate his wonderful, specialness. 

Much Love,

A&M vs Arkansas

 This weekend was the A&M vs Arkansas game at the stadium. It is also the very first year that Jennifer is a genuine Aggie. Connor and Amber flew down from Chicago to hang out for the weekend and go to the game. We were the only Aggies in a sea of Razorback fans, but the Aggies pulled off the win, which quickly shut the naysayers down! For the most part, they weren't too bad. It was a fun game and weekend made even better by the Aggie win.

Puppies!

We've been keeping a secret from Abigail and Allison for the better part of 6 weeks. We decided to adopt two Havanese puppies! We flew out to South Carolina in early August to meet them and their family and immediately fell in love with these two puppies. Their owner raises Havanese puppies and the proceeds are donated to families adopting children internationally. Stephanie, herself, has 8 adopted children who we also were able to meet. We knew that we could not share any details of this with Abby or Allie, otherwise, we'd be subjected to endless questions about when, when, when are we getting the puppies?! So we decided to keep the surprise under wraps only telling the girls that they were getting a present. Moises picked the puppies up on Friday and brought them home to wait until the girls arrived home. Upon Abby and Allie's arrival home, Moises brought out two boxes for each and let them open the boxes. Needless to say, there were exclamations of shock and tears of joy. We spent the evening playing with the puppies and getting them acclimated to their new home.

A wedding in France

This week we traveled to France to celebrate Jessica and Marc's wedding in Nice. It was our first overseas trip since COVID, but thankfully restrictions have really loosened and COVID tests are no longer required. While the wedding was in Nice, we also visited Monaco including the Prince's Palace, Musee Oceanographique, and the Monte Carlo, Antibes, which included a visit to Musee Picasso and we visited Eze Village which included a tour of the Le Jardin Exotique d'Eze and Chateau Eza. We split a house with Connor and Amber in Downtown Nice, which was close to the Mediterranean Sea and the wedding venue. The food was surprisingly very Italian and all the fresh seafood was amazing. The wedding itself was amazing and we were so excited to celebrate with Jess and Marc, they're such special people and very dear to us.

Preseason Opener

 The preseason opener for the Cowboys was this weekend. We headed down after school and met Saul at the airport. He & Miriam agreed to keep the girls overnight while we went to the game. The game did not end in a win, but we still had a good time and ended up spending the whole weekend in Dallas before heading home on Sunday afternoon. 

Much Love,
