We had a super special Family Fun Day to celebrate Diego Tomas! Ricardo took the day off and the big kids stayed home from school. Diego had the day planned and we had a blast!
He requested homemade waffles with strawberries for breakfast. He absolutely loves meals in the dining room and is on candle lighting duty.
Sweet brothers
Big bro, lil sis
Lucia was asleep when breakfast started...
...but enjoye waffles...
...and balloons when she woke up. When Diego turned one we took balloons to his room and that has been a tradition with each child. They love waking up to balloons in their room!
He opened his present from his siblings at breakfast which was the game Battleship. We had fun playing it for awhile while we waited for Ricardo to have a work call.
We arrived to Top Golf close to noon and it was awesome! All of the children really enjoyed playing golf, and of course daddy too!
Giving Marco some tips
Alexia was really into it.
Watching the birthday boy!
Lucia did pretty well, but was getting restless by the end. She was as happy as can be when she was on someone's shoulders.
I love this picture of us. Such a special time!
The big NINE year old!
Marco loved the golf bag that they lent him.
We were all so hungry by the time we got home at 2:00. We considered having snacks at Top Golf, but Diego was set on having baguette sandwiches for lunch so we waited. Baguettes are a treat around here so that was his request. He wanted ham, onion, lettuce and mayonnaise. We had fun with our sandwich bar!
This boy's love language is quality time without a doubt. His request for the afternoon activity was to sit by the fire in the family room and hang out. We played board games and just enjoyed a super relaxed time.
We had pizza movie night for dinner. We picked up pizza from Mellow Mushroom and watched Old Yeller.
And then of course there had to be cake! He wanted brownie sundaes. Yes, we did a lot of eating!
This boy is an incredible blessing in our family. He is fun, energetic, joyful, kind, loving, honest, strong and just fun to be around. I am so grateful that the Lord chose US to be his family and to get these front row seats to watch his life happen.
