Happy Valentine's Day!

It was a beautiful day for Valentine's here in Austin. Geneva had a party at school, so I stayed up last night making cookies (chocolate chip & white chocolate macadamia nut - yum!). The little ones asked to go to the park - so we did. There were lots of things to swing on and lots of things to spin on! They had fun.

Double trouble!!

The Micster loves the swings.

Gabriela went on this slide once... She said she

"almost got scared" but wouldn't go on it again.

Rafa, on the other hand...

The height of this slide was pretty cool and you

(um, I mean, the kids) can really get some speed!

These things just swung around like crazy!

Gabriela liked it better with her eyes closed!

Snow in Austin

Considering that many parts of the country were blanketed in heavy snow recently, snow in Austin might not be terribly interesting...unless you're Rafa & Gabriela that is. So yesterday morning when we woke up to hear them screaming "it snowed" - we knew we were in for a treat. I have to admit that I woke up a few times during the night to look out the window to see if there had been any snow... But here's a little look at their fun.
