During that week, my cousins and I went to Key West 4 hours south of Florida and 90 miles to Cuba.

Rogelio's Birthday 12/16/2009

We took Rogelio to the Newport Beach Boat Parade

It was kind of cold

Erika was nervous. She doesn't do good on boats.

Lights were awesome

I'd like to have one of those

This one was the best for me

Rogelio was happy with his b-day cake

But the twin was curious about it too,

We had CRAB!!!!

I had to show him how to eat it

Big Bear Lake Nov 2009

Hi everyone! I am sorry for not posting anything lately but the holidays have kept us busy. In this post, we spent 5 days at a rented cabin in Big Bear Lake. I hope you like them.
Hola a todos! En esta ocasion pasamos 5 dias en el lago Big Bear.

Here's Erika with Kevin (left) and Mario, my nephews.

When Rogelio gets drunk he can't stop laughing. Cuando Rogelio esta tomado no puede parar de reir.

WE were really happy.....

so we kept drinking.

Group picture!

Rogelio and his favorite hobby.

Nice sunsets!

This was our view for 5 days.

This is the cabin viewed from the dock.

It was cold but we still wanted to be outside.

Erika and I decided to go for a walk.

Here are a few pics of the surrounding cabins

Rogelio during his daily nap...his true favorite past-time.

Because of this picture his nickname from now on is: Smiley

I went snowboarding one morning.

It was all about relaxation and spending time together.

Until next time! Happy Holidays!
