Apologies for not writing in the blog for over a week, but we were on vacation! Spending a week with Steve's family in Fort Mill, SC made for a very special Easter. From start to finish the trip was so enjoyable! Steve and I were a little nervous about flying with two babies, but both kids put us to shame for even worrying about it! They did so great on both flights and we also were really blessed to sit next to some really nice people who loved kids too.
With all of Steve's family now living in Fort Mill (except for Dan & his family), it made for a packed trip. We wished it didn't go by so quickly! It would have been nice to spend some more time with everyone, but we're so thankful for the time we did have together. It was the first time that all of them met Gracie, except for Steve's mom Ercy. I enjoyed having all the extra arms helping to hold Grace during our stay because she needed some extra TLC as her first two bottom teeth are almost through!
Benjamin had a BLAST! He was in his element from the very beginning, playing with his cousins and soaking up the sunshine & fresh air all day long! He was in his glory playing with Ercy's dog Zoey, playing in the kiddie pool, running in the sprinkler, hanging out with his cousins, going on an Easter egg hunt and the list goes on and on.
The food while we were there was unbelievable! Steve's grandma, Abuela Irma, made us milanesas, pizza de cebolla, pollito asado and empanadas; Ercy made a ham dinner; Natalie made her famous red sauce; and Horace made an incredible Argentine BBQ. Steve and I were afraid to get on a scale when we got home!
It was an excellent and memorable trip.
So cute! we are so happy you could spend Easter with us:) Every one was jumping up and down to see you.
