Update finally



Lots has been going on since the last time I wrote something. Lets see, Xiomi came last Saturday and she drove with my mom and abuelo to Tucson for Rebeca's graduation. It was a nice evening graduation. We had a great time with the family. Sofia and I flew. Sofia had her first swimming pool experience, she just loves the water!! Now Xiomi left on Sunday morning. Aaron and I took advange of the aunty Xiomi and Grandma, we got to go out on 2 dates in 1 week. It was great.
On other big news, we've been very busy packing. For those of you who don't know; we're moving to Edmunds, Wa for the summer; which is about 15 miles north of Seattle. we'll be back in the beginning of Sept. Aaron starts driving Wed morning and plans on getting there Thur. night. Sofia and I fly out on friday, and he'll pick us up in the airport. Hopefully he'll be able to at least partially start moving in. Aaron starts work on Monday in a small hospital in Edmunds. I won't be working at all; hospital work that is. :-) We're excited and sad about leaving all at the same time. We're gonna miss family and friends. We trust God has gone ahead and He'll have a church and new friends waiting for us. :-) We do know 1 Christian couple already. Anyways, it's a busy week ahead, lots of new adjustments for all of us. Please keep us in your prayers.

Safari/Petting zoo






We went to visit the local safari, it's like a zoo, except you drive through it and most animals are out in the open, unless they can kill you (like the bears, tigers, lions etc.) otherwise lots of animals roam the area, it's very big, with ponds and hills. Some animals you are able to pet, sometimes they have baby bears or baby tigers you can hold. this time they only had rabbits, and you could go inside the cage where they had 2 lemars, they were cute; but we didn't go inside. anyways, Sofia got to pet a kangaroo and some goats. We had fun. Aaron's brother Joe and his son Holden came with us. We had a nice time.

Meeting Zeke



Here's Sofia and Zeke, they're cousins; only 3 months apart. He is so adorable! and he's such a big boy! Zeke is turning 9 months this week and Sofia turned 6 months today. We had a nice time in Arkansa, Aaron's family finally got to meet Sofia.

First airplane ride



We went to visit Aaron's family in Arkansas over the weekend. This was Sofia's first airplane ride. She did really good, she cried for a little while (very loud) in the beginning of each flight, i'm not sure why but she was upset!! but she took a little nap and woke up feeling much better. The airplane was pretty empty so we were able to just take the car seat inside the plane, she was just chillin in it. It was worth every penny to fly versus driving; and we got great prices on airplane tickets, and they were direct flights. sweet :-) :-)
