So much time has passed, it is hard to know where to even start. As the pictures below show, we have been having a great time and getting around town. Mami and papi went to school to pick Eléa up a few months back, and she ran up to us shouting, "watch this!" She then proceeded to get on a two wheel pedal bicycle (no training wheels) and ride around school. It was amazing!
We've had so much fun with out of town visitors! Thanks Darcie, Chris, Sylvia, and Reese for coming down and enjoying Texas ranch life with us. Thanks Alison, Ben, Jaya, and Ziggy for staying with us and helping us take care of Bhante. Thanks Bhante for sharing his time and teaching with us. We had such a great time, and Eléa is always asking when she will see you all again.
We also had some travel adventures to Baja Mexico (thanks Abi and Abu)...pictures to come. And a nice visit to San Diego to see Uncle Seren and Angela. Eléa as always was a superstar traveler, and had constant comments about how what we were seeing were "different" than the things in her area...aka: Austin.
Finally, Eléa turned four!!! She is growing so fast. If you're feeling like the birthday pictures look familiar...it is the same location as her 1st and 3rd birthday party, and the same cake as her 3rd birthday party. She knows what she likes. We had a blast, and Eléa enjoyed her presents, and of course the cake most of all!
