Cars 2

I was so excited to take Braiden to Cars 2 (I figured he would like it a lot since he loves cars) I wasn't going to go during the opening day so, I decided to go on Saturday, unfortunately, Julio had to go so Tía Karina & I took him to the matinee show. We bought popcorn and pop and went to find a seat. At the beginning everything was fine, then when the previews came, they had Toy Story (is the 4th one coming?) and Braiden was super excited, the kept on saying Woody Woody so, I thought this movie experience would be a success. When Cars 2 started, he was still doing well, he kept on saying roam roam but after a while, he wanted to get off the booster chair, then he wanted to sit back on it, then sit on my lap, to make the long story short, he lasted the whole movie but, he didn't watch it.

I'm wandering if he is not interested in Cars the movie or if he is not ready for the movie theater yet.

Overall, it was an okay experience, not the best but not the worst so that's a good thing..

A bike ride is way more fun...

This is what I like

Mommy, lets get some tokens, pleaseeeeeee!!

(like everything he says, he knows pleasee will get him

what he wants the majority of the time)

Say cheese..

Summer Faces

Yay, today is the first official day of Summer!!!

When I got home from work, we went outside and sat there for a while, we were enjoying the nice weather, Braiden was having fun playing with his car and just enjoying being outside, he then came to me and say Mommy picture pleaseee so, I took one then he wanted another one and another one and next thing we knew he had a mini photo session, here are the ones that I liked the most...

I guess Braiden is learning from his Mom, is all about pictures :)

It makes me happy that he is an outdoors little guy!!

Oh how sad, no more pictures :(

This is by far my favorite!!

So hot

So reverent

So sweet

So serious..

Father's Day

We had a very relax Father's Day celebration. We had time to rest, we got up around 9:30, had breakfast with the family, then got ready to go to church (just to Sacrament meeting), then we got home and enjoy delicious tamales and menudo. We spent the rest of the day having family time, we watched a movie and were able to have a fun day at home.

Happy Father's Day to Julio, you are such a great, loving and patient daddy, that's why Braiden loves to do everything with you. I was hoping that he would be momma's boy but he is definitively not..

So happy!

Our family :)

Fun City

For our Saturday activity, we got together as a family, we went to dinner and then we went to play mini golf. We went to Fun City which is very close to my sister's in-law house, we had never taken Braiden to play mini golf and we were up for the experience, he actually did pretty good and had a fun and slow mini golf game.

Even though I'm not in any of the pictures, I was there, I was their photographer.

We will definitively take Braiden for some mini golf again, we would probably try a different place.

It was a fun family activity!!

Continuation

We were invited to attend the Continuation of our niece Andrea and our nephew Frankie, they are going from Elementary to Junior High so, after work we headed to Littleton to attend their ceremony. It was a good ceremony but it was very hot inside, the good thing was that we got there few minutes before the even started (one of the few times we were on time) so we were able to have a seat. After the ceremony, we went to Dora's house for dinner, we had tacos and a great conversation.

Congratulations Andrea & Frankie, we hope to be there to support you on your next graduation!!

Ladies overnight

We had a ladies overnight, we stayed at the Residence Inn Marriott in Englewood, it was a wonderful and fun time. It was my first time having an overnight with friends. Danni and I got to the hotel late, Carol, Rhisa and Riley had been there for a while. Once we got there our fun night begun, we ate (we had several different kinds of potato chips and dips, chocolate covered strawberries, candy bars and cheesecake), played board games, listened to music, had a beautifying session with manicures, pedicures and mud masks, we also chatted and chatted until about 4am, it was a great opportunity to get to know each other better and learn more about each one of us. We slept for few hours and then we got up to go to breakfast, then after breakfast we went back to our room and played few more rounds of the board game then next thing we knew it was time to go back home.

Thanks ladies for the wonderful time we spent together and thanks to our great husbands for allowing us to have some time for our selves!!

Totally concentrated playing Bananagrams!!
