St.Patricks day/Camilo's birthday

Yesterday was was my brother Camilo St.Patrick Francos birthday.(That is not his real name, he just happened to be born on St.Patricks day)

While many girls nowadays say "brothers are bothers"
what we should be saying is "thank God for brothers!!!"
I have 3 older brothers and 2 younger brothers and it just wouldn't be the same
without them.
So with that,
Happy birthday Camilo!!!

Please pray

Well, we're back from the conference
and we are all rather tired.
It was a very busy weekend so with the time change and
arriving late last night, we all took a badly needed rest.
I would like to ask you all to be praying as we have found a house
that we really like, for sale by owner. My dad will probably be signing a
contract soon, but we need your prayers.
We will probably find out in a month and a half if it works out or not.
Thank you.

Jared's birthday

Yesterday was Jared's 7th b-day!!!
I can't believe how time flies, it seems like just a little bit
ago he was the baby of the family.

We had Camilo and Jessica over for dinner, and Christopher (he is my cousin, Cristian's brother) showed up
for Cake (and salad)

After a delicious dinner of Mahi-mahi, Lemon Vermicelli, and bread,
we had a birthday cake and Jared opened his gifts.

I thank God for my wonderful siblings.

P.S. We will be leaving for Raleigh tomorrow and will not
get back till Monday. Till then.

Snow,snow,snow!!!

Well, we had our first (and probably last) snowfall on Sunday.
On Monday morning Camilo and Jessica came over with their dog Bailey, for breakfast
and to play outside with all of us kids.

This is what our yard looked like when we first went out.
After snowball fighting and making a snowman,

our yard looked like this.

Here is our happy snowman with
Jared, Camilo, Haviland, and David.

After Camilo and Jessica left, Fernando and Alejandra came over
with Cristian and we all had a snowball fight with the last little bit of snow.
After playing till we were half frozen, we all went in to enjoy some of daddy's rib soup.
I thank God for the wonderful time we had.

and the sky above proclaims His handiwork."
