Connecticut Cousins Come to Visit

We had a wonderful 4 day visit from my sister, Becky and her delightful family.


Airus, age 22 months and Diego, aged 17 months enjoyed the same toys (they almost look like twins - or at least siblings!)


We had fun tie dyeing shirts, shorts and socks for all the kids. Liliana (3) and Pablo (7) helped me make decisions about colors and patterns, and they did the application of the dyes.

Here they are modeling the first group of warm colored garments. I didn't get photos of the cool colored batch, but they came out just as nicely.

Pablo really enjoyed having lots of time for shooting arrows. He enjoyed shooting at a target near the house. One afternoon, Joe took him on a hike in the woods to see if he could find a deer or wild turkey. No luck.


We had wonderful weather. Sunny with temperatures in the 40's and 50's. There was plenty of opportunity to explore the great outdoors.


The kids played well together and were spontaneously affectionate with each other.

Airus loved getting acquainted with his Uncle Jorge.


We had a sushi feast on our final night together. Above, Jorge, Elizabeth and I are all assembling sushi rolls like mad. It was a fabulous feast enjoyed by all our kids and their significant others.
