Puerto Rican Festival

Adrian's mom has officially moved here from Puerto Rico and what do we do our first weekend together?...take her to a Puerto Rican Festival. Downtown Houston was packed with people celebrating their culture with food, live music, and dancing.

We ran into an old family friend, Jose Cruz.

Beach Bums

Although it's just Galveston, we are lucky to have the beach so close to us. Eli had never been to the beach before so we sprinted down to Galveston for a few days. He loved jumping in the waves and playing in the sand. Every now and then he'll ask if we're "going to the beach today." I wish every day was a beach day too Eli.

Our handsome beach boy.

Eli loved building sand (mud) castles with his daddy.

Look'n sharp in his guyabera, ready to go out.

"Where's Thomas?"

Getting some sweet treats in the old fashioned ice cream parlor.
