Mexico Summer Visit part 6

Finally, my last post from our trip to Mexico.
 
Luis and Cristina invited me and the kids over to swim one afternoon.  This was so kind of them, and they served us so well while there.  The kids really enjoyed being in the kid pool with their new friends.


And they fed us pancakes for dinner!


Luis and the littlest ones.



I would often head off in the morning to go visit my aunt with Naamen alone and leave the kids with my mom.  Here they are waving goodbye to us, and us saying goodbye to them.



Mornings at Oma's house.


Naamen enjoying his mango paleta.




On our way to the airport eeeearly in the morning.  Saying goodbye to Gato.

Mexico Summer Visit part 5

I took a break from uploading these pictures, but I'm back again.
 
On my second Sunday in Mexico, I got to see a few more familiar faces.  This is just a *small* sample of them.  Here I am with Lucia, a good friend of mine while we lived in Mexico in our early years of marriage.




And here I am with Emmanuel, an *old* friend of mine, along with his lovely wife.  So fun to see them!


And then also with my former boss Lupita.


That Sunday afternoon my mom invited her husband's daughter and her son over to swim and play with the kids.  They had a wonderful time together, and even wrapped the day off with some cartoon time together late into the evening.



And then that night (yes, same night!) I went to visit a few family members.  I only have this one picture on my camera with my uncle and aunt, but there are other pictures out there with my other family members that I won't be adding here bc I don't have.


My mom took out my old flute for Emma to see.  She was so fascinated by it.  


A fun playdate I got to have was one afternoon with some old girlfriends of mine (as in elementary school old).  What a treat to get to catch up with them!


We were at a great playground!




Then another day my cousin and good childhood friend Sihan came over for a pool visit.  What a refreshing time this was for my soul!
