Trip to New York

We were so blessed this year to be able to take a trip to New York. Pablo's uncle invited us to come and visit him and his family during the summer. After he offered to send us two plane tickets how could we refuse. We went the week after Pablo finished his finals at seminary. It was such a great time to relax and enjoy family after the busy end of semester projects. We had such a great time visiting with family and building on those relationships. It is during those moments that you truly feel blessed by the people God puts in your life. We were able to encourage them and draw encouragement from them. It is great to see how the body of Christ works.

We also did a lot of sightseeing. We would wake up every morning and hit the streets. We went all over New York everyday and still did not have enough time to see all we wanted. My sweet husband did get me a wonderful mother's day gift while we were in New York. He bought me a ticket to go and see The Lion King on Broadway and it was fabulous. Pablo's Aunt Silvana and I went together to see it and we had such great seats. It was truly a dream come true for me. Thank you so much my love!!!

Although, this is not everyone in the family, here is a good shot of most of them. Our last day in New York the family had a cook out and we enjoyed the nice weather outside. Peyton had a great time in New York even though we were so busy and he missed most of his naps and did not get to bed before midnight most nights. He also learned the word "MINE" while we were in New York. That is one word I could have done without him learning. Peyton thought the world of Papi Victor (Pablo's grandpa) and would not leave his side. He loved him so much that Papi Victor would have to hide from Peyton just to get a few minutes of peace. Peyton loved visiting with the family and playing with the girls. We are so greatful to God for providing us with a much needed vacation. Also, thank you Feno and Silvi for your hospitality and generosity.
