Feliz Navidad

This was a very good Christmas...We had a family dinner and then we got to open presents. We came home and Nate went to bed to wait for Santa and Baby Jesus...He got most of the stuff he wanted...some other ones he did not ask but Santa and Baby Jesus thought that it would be good things to have for his education...I got all I wanted...and Emil got what he asked for...Although I did not get to see my Venezuelan family this year, I got to spend time with my US family...I did not take picture of all the wonderful gifts we got from both families...but we loved each of them!

Esta fuen una Navidad muy buena...Tuvimos una cena y luego abrimos los regalos. Vinimos a casa y Nate se fue a dormir para esperar por Santa y el Nino Jesus...Le dieron la mayoria de las cosas que pidio...algunas de las cosas el no las pidio pero Santa y el Nino Jesus pensaron que eran cosas buenas para su educacion...A mi me dieron todo lo que queria...y Emil obtuvo lo que pidio...A pesar de he no pude ver mi familia Venezolana, pase el tiempo con mi familia de USA...No tome fotos de todos los regalos que recibimos de las dos familias...per nos gustaron mucho todos!

Christmas Play

Nathan had his First Grade Christmas play today..."The Little Bell That Could Not Ring"...He was singing along...my little baby! I had tears of joy...I cried during his Kindergarten play too...I just get emotional...It is hard to see him in the pictures. He is at the center of the last row...

Nathan tuvo su acto del Primer Grado hoy..."La Campanita que no pudo sonar"...Era uno de los cantantes...my bebe! Llore de la emocion...Llore durante su acto de Kindergarten tambien...Me emociono...Es dificil de verlo en las fotos. El esta en el centro de la ultima fila...

Christmas Party

Emil and I had our Christmas Parties yesterday...Yes, they were both on the same day...We went to mine first and ended up in his...Although we were late to his party, the organizers were very welcoming...Emil got the chance to spint the prize wheel and got a certificate for See's Candies...uh, uh, ummm!...We finished the night dancing and I ended up with my feet hurting due to the high heels...While dancing they had different prizes, and Emil won a floral arragement...It is beautiful...I wish I know the name of all the flowers...it would be nice to have a garden with all of those colors...

Emil y yo tuvimos nuestras fiestas de Navidad ayer...Si, las dos fiestas fueron el mismo dia...Fuimos a la mia primero y terminamos en la de el...A pesar de que llegamos tarde a su fiesta, las personas que organizaron la fiesta fueron muy amables...Emil tuvo la oportunidad de dar vuelta a la rueda de premios y gano un certificado para los See's Candies (Chocolates)...uh, uh, ummm!...Terminamos la noche bailando y termine con mis pies doliendome debido a los tacones que tenia...Mientras bailabamos tenian diferentes premios, y Emil gano un arreglo floral...Es hermoso...Me gustaria saber el nombre de todas las flores...Seria chevere tener un jardin con todos esos colores...

Lemon Cheesecake

Emil made the ultimate Lemon Coconut cheesecake last night...Actually, it took him two days...but it was worth the effort...It is YUMMY!!! I just loved it!

Emil hizo la mejor torta de queso de Limon y Coco anoche...En realidad le tomo dos dias para hacerla...pero valio el esfuerzo...Esta DELICIOSA!!!! Me gusto mucho!

Thanksgiving

We went to Emil's Mom for Thanksgiving's Dinner this year. I love the Holidays because it allows us to get all together...We missed Jaime, Anthony and their kids...the babies were too small to go out during this Holiday...Hopefully everyone will be able to join us for the Christmas dinner...The family is getting bigger...Jaime and family are a total of 8, Emil's family is a total of 3 (for now), and Jennifer (Steven's girlfriend) got to join the family a little over a year ago...

Fuimos a la casa de la Mama de Emil para la Cena de Accion de Gracias. Me gustan las festividades porque nos permite reunirnos...Extranamos a Jaime, Anthony y sus ninos...Los bebes estaban muy pequenos para salir durante estas festividades...Esperamos que ellos nos puedan venir para la cena de Navidad...La familia esta creciendo...Jaime y su familia son 8 en total, la familia de Emil son 3 (por ahora), y Jennifer (la novia de Steven) se unio a la familia hace poco mas de 12 meses...
