Merry Christmas

We spent Christmas Day with the familia. We had a nice time exchanging gifts, eating Tamales and spending time with each other. Hope everyone had a great holiday!

Drum Roll.......

After months and months of simply not knowing.
All that we knew was that our baby was growing.
No signs of it being a boy or a girl.
This kept us in limbo with our heads in a whirl.
Until finally last week, we were given the pleasure.
Of knowing the sex of the child we would soon treasure.
We decided it was best to wait until Christmas Day.
To reveal our great news on this very special day.
So with no further adu, its is time that we share.
The sex of our baby for all you out there.....................










ITS A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A day with the Rongas.

We spent such a relaxing Sunday with the Rongas. We had a great breakfast, hung out on the porch and then the boys went shopping while the girls went for a long walk. Its the way Sundays should be.

2007 Hernandez Holiday Party

On Saturday we attended our annual "Hernandez" holiday party at John and Diane's house. We had such a great time visiting with our relatives that unfortunately we don't see very often. Luckily we have holidays that get us all together to catch up and enjoy each other's company.


We started off the evening with a VERY happy 3 year old.

Happy birthday Sofia

So today we went to church after a very long time. I felt that it would be nice for Tamara to really get into Christmas by experiencing its "true" meaning. She loved church and she loved to sing the hymns. She was very loud in her singing voice and people were looking over at us giggling at this 3 year-old reading the misselet and singing in quite a bad voice. But thats ok, she was very cute and she was having fun. Afterward, we went to Sofia's birthday breakfast as she is now 4 years old. How time flies. We all had a great breakfast together and enjoyed a great Sunday morning.

Sofia concentrating on opening her gifts.



Our first gift to her was a white warm jacket.



The next gift was a snow white globe.



I wonder if she liked it???



Humm, by the look on her face, I think she liked it.




Historical moment! Tamara and Tia Cecilia taking a picture, smiling and being close. Do you think it was Church??? Did that do the trick?
