Celebrating Life.

      Truly had an amazing weekend.  We were invited to go over a friend's house for dinner and we had an amazing time. When we arrived we were received with such love. The kids were all jumping to give Amalia kisses and giving Ethan high fives! I was given a compliment from a six year old named Jessica who loved my hair style and my high heels. We walked in and the dinning room was decorated with flowers and candles. I  said to myself "who needs a restaurant, this rocks." After a while of settling in, putting baby diaper bag on the one single corner chair, the group formed. You know the man go to the backyard, the women stay in the kitchen and the kids, well they are everywhere! We chatted, laughed and made memories.
       Dinner time, we sat and  I said grace thanking the mighty Father for all of his blessings. The food was delicious, these ladies can cook. The Menu, was the old fashion typical Dominican food: White rice, pinto beans, spare ribs, potato salad, potato bacon casserole, avocado, green salad with carrots and beets, arepita yucca. YUMMYYYY!!!...........Engaging in delicious food and great conversation it was like old times, when my parents had dinner gathering and now I experienced that.




        Couple of hour later, we had some homemade delicious pina colada and hot chili and cheese nachos. We danced, we even watched a belly dancing tape and tried to imitate the girls, we did pretty good. The night turned into a movie night, the kids fell asleep.........around two in the morning picked up my sleepy little ones and home we went.





Tell me one of your memorable time with friends?

Proverbs 17:17

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity

1 John 4:7-9

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
