Yesterday (Day 6) was a bit of a blur filled with errands and mall trips so there was nothing to report there. Instead, let's fast forward to today. The day that the kids finally got to meet Tio Tony in person. We packed our bags and left Grandma's to travel to Abuelo Julio's house in Hialeah.
Mateo and Tio Tony became fast friends
Now that the kids had warmed to sand and surf, they wasted no time getting into their swimsuits and going out to the sand by the lake in the back.
And then they discovered the paddle boat...we will return to that later
For now I should tell you that all of a sudden Lucia didn't feel like wearing her swimsuit and instead wanted to wear swim trunks with no shirt like her brother
Now, back to the paddle boat. We have been to Abuelo Julio's house several times in the past and the kids are always fascinated by the paddle boat, but the paddle boat hadn't seen any action for several years...that is until Tio Tony came home. Before taking it out it needed to be cleaned and Mateo was happy to hose it down...
...and so of course was Miss Lucia
And now they are off
Later, Papi joined them and they went fishing
And ended up catching a fish
What a beauty
Afterwards, the kids played wiffle ball in the backyard...
...where we discovered Mateo has quite an arm
After such a busy day, Miss Lucia couldn't keep her eyes open so she passed out on the couch
While Mateo met and hung out with Abuela Leonor (visiting from Cuba) for the very first time
