Seabee Ball

The other weekend we had our Seabee Ball at a beautiful venue about twenty minutes away.  This year our ball was held at a local bodega in Jerez.

Not sure what setting I had my camera on for some of these photos!

Just a little bright!

ChIcA photo!

A typical dinner setting here with appetizers.  Compared to the states there isn't a lot of color.  But there is good flavor!

One of the appetizers was gambas (above).   You eat the little guys like crab legs and they are actually really good.  Don't worry they weren't sitting on our plate like this. I just thought this made it look extra delicuous!

So Proud

Claire could do this all day.. play in my jewelry!  I think it's cute now.. but I may be in trouble when she's older!

 

Mimi, thank you for the great idea with my army men!  As soon as I had my friend Ethan over, the army men were built tall on a tower!

The Drewster and Claire Bear

We will soon have a two year old and a four year old and life is only getting easier.  Everyday we love even more the kiddos being close in age and playing together.  (Yes we still hear screaming...)  but for the most part, they really get along well and have become great playmates!

Just finished raining and now it's time for the boots!

Firemen in the house!

The past few days we've had rain day after rain day.  The kiddos actually love it as we get silly in the house (or mom will go nuts). So we made an awesome fort the other day and the kiddos loved it!  However.. now they demand a fort at 7am when they wake up!

And a little snack of course in the fort

The kiddos LOVE tub time together and it's hilarious. The photos I will be able to use when they're older are so great!

Spa Day

I think I should start "photo of the day" with Drew and Claire as they're always doing something funny!  Today I found Drew painting Claire's toes with nail polish!  She was sitting there totally perfect and holding still!  I even jumped on the spa day chance and had my hads and toes painted by Drew!

I love this photo as he's holding her foot for the detailed polish finish!
