GWOF part II and III

GWOF continued on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday we headed to Nana and Grandpa's house. Maria had fun playing with Griffin and splashing her hands in the pool water (and one of her feet, with her shoe still on - my bad!). We enjoyed some tasty tri-tip and Maria thoroughly enjoyed the b-day cake made by Nana as you can see in the pics below.




Today we had Greg's in-laws (my family) over for lunch. Everyone loved the homemade salsa, taco soup, and chocolate cake with ice cream.

Maria and the birthday boy enjoying their beverages of choice...

Maria loved having her cousins over. Here's the only group shot we got of them today! They are playing in the box that Greg's gift came in. Unfortunately, Maria wasn't a fan of being squished in there, so we don't have a better shot of them!Here are some pics of her playing ring-around-rosie with Aidan (anyone got new words to this song, since the original version is pretty morbid?!)



Abuelo had fun playing horse-y with them (you can kinda see part of his head in the first pic!) and he and Abuela helped tire Aidan out by having him run back and forth into their arms :)





Aidan liked looking through one of my picture books of Latin America. Unfortunately for Maria (who also likes the book), Aidan was not as willing to share the book, as he was to play ring-around-the rosie. I'm sure that Maria laughing at Aidan's refusal to share the book with her was not the response Aidan was expecting to get!


So, GWOF 2009 has come to a close. Hope you enjoyed every minute of it, Greg!

Love all of the pics. Happy bday Greg! And great idea - I can't wait to celebrate HWOF in July. And turns out we already have a week at Disneyworld to celebrate TWOF...maybe not exactly what he would have had in mind...ha!

We enjoyed Greg's BD very much and being there watching the little ones playing and having fun was very entertaining.
The taco soup was delicious and Alina, the salsa you prepared was out of this world.
You got a new job girl, as a salsa maker!!!
