Jueves y Viernes / Thursday and Friday

Ayer fue el primer día de trabajo de Pablo así que nosotras estuvimos solas todo el día. No puedo quejarme por que ambos días fueron muy buenos.

Jueves: Las niñas jugaron, pelearon (sí lo normal en un día), vieron sus muñequitos favoritos y comieron y comieron (yo no sé por qué mientras están en la casa comen tanto, ja). Mientras yo cociné, organicé el closet y las gavetas de su gavetero, revisé que cosas sirven para el próximo año escolar y barrí la casa.

Viernes: Mi mamá vino temprano a visitarme y estuvimos hablando mucho tiempo. En la tarde yo lavé ropa y comencé la búsqueda de ideas para el cumpleaños de las niñas. Mientras mis niñas hicieron básicamente lo mismo de ayer. Cuando Pablo salió de trabajar nos busco para ir a hacer algunas diligencias.

Estamos listos para disfrutar el fin de semana.

Annie

Yesterday was the first day of work of  Pablo so we were alone all day.  I cannot complain because both days were very good.

Thursday:  The girls played, they fought (yes the normal thing in a day), they saw their favorite cartoons, did some coloring and ate and ate all day (I don't know why while they are in the house they eat so much, ha).  While I cooked, organized their closet and drawers, I also check the things that we can reuse for the next school year oh and I also swept the house. 

Friday:  My mom came early to visit me and we were speaking a lot of time.  In the afternoon I washed clothes and began the search of ideas for the girls birthday party.  Meanwhile, my girls did basically the same thing of yesterday.  When Pablo left of work we went to ran some errands. 

We are ready to enjoy the weekend.

After that, they requested for a pool time.

Jueves / Thursday

El día transcurrió entre juegos y quitando los bordes de la pared de nuestro cuarto. Solo faltó quitar los bordes del closet pero es poco así que se hará luego. Las ventanas ya están lavadas así que mañana iremos a comprar la pintura para el cuarto (tan pronto esté todo en su lugar vendrán las fotos).

Annie

Our day was a little busy for Pablo and I because we were working with the wall paper (borders) at our bedroom. It was a really hard work and I don't know what I was thinking like 7 years ago when we added those borders, arghhhhh. Anyway, we finished removing most of it, only remains some more in the closest (thanks God our closets are so tiny that we will finish it soon). Now, is time to buy new paint for the room and have a little makeover. Can't wait to show you the final product.

Lunes, Martes y Miércoles / Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday

Estos últimos días han sido un poco más tranquilos. El lunes fuimos a comprar algunos comestibles. El martes Pablo y yo picamos un pavo entero y guardamos la pechuga picada en pedazos en el refrigerador. El resto del pavo lo hicimos asado y lo acompañamos con arroz con lentejas. Mientras la comida se cocinaba disfrutamos un rato de la piscina. Luego, nos bañamos, comimos y horneamos bizcochitos. En resumen, fue un excelente día. Hoy decidimos pasar la tarde en la playa.

No hemos estado muy activos pero aún así, realizamos algunas actividades en familia.

Annie

These last days have been a little tranquil for us.  Monday we went tothe grocery store (only that).  Tuesday, Pablo and I cut an entire turkey and we keep the breast in the refrigerator.  The remainder of the turkey was roasted and I cooked rice with lentils (it was the first time I cooked lentils and everyone love it).  While the food was cooked we had fun at the pool.  Then, we bathe, ate and bake cupcakes.  All in all, was an excellent day.  Today we decide to go to the beach. Had some chips, hot dogs and juice at the beach and leftovers for dinner. 

The most important thing to us is a spend a lot of time together as possible.

Annie

PS: Pictures coming in the next days.

Viernes y Sábado / Friday and Saturday

Ambos días fueron extremadamente tranquilos. El viernes Pablo tuvo que presentarse a su trabajo por unas cuántas horas. Mientras yo estuve en la casa y aproveché para hacer la limpieza mientras las niñas jugaban.

Hoy sábado, salimos a comprar los regalos para el día de Padres y luego fuimos a la Parguera a comer. Mi mamá nos acompañó y pasamos un buen rato.

Annie

Both days were extremely tranquil.  Friday Pablo had to worked part of the day.  I was at home with the girls and cleaned. In the meantime the girls played very well all day. 

Today Saturday, we went to the mall and bought some gifts for Father's day and then we went to eat at La Parguera.  My mom was with us and we had a good time.

Tibes y el Parque / Indian Park and Another Park

Our first stop was at the Indian Park (the real name is Tibes). They had a little museum, a "movie room" where you watch a DVD with information of the indians. After that, a guide show us the area where the indians live, the boat (in spanish is canoa) they used for fishing and the area where they played (the real name is batey, spanish name). Our girls had a great time around the park and we were happy to show them a little of our culture.

This is how they used to live (real name is aldeas)

Turtles

Bohio (indian house)

We were sitting at the big stones that were used by the indian chief

And the girls had fun walking at the indian play area

After that we headed to the mountain to a new park. It's a big park with a splash area, playground and little "cover areas" for picnics. We stayed for almost an hour.

It's a cool place but is far away from the city so, we don't have plans to go again. Check the cover area for picnics to the left and if you see the big mountain at the back well, behind it is a lake.
