Closet Sleepers

…they just prefer to sleep in the closet.

  The Tias were visiting from Spain in October (Yeah, I know. And I haven’t posted since August. Shame on me. I’ll try to play catch-up and include birthday parties and other such fun!) Check out the video Paloma created from their trip. So much fun. Whenever I need a quick pick-me-up, I play this…

More daredevil antics

Daryoosh spent most of Sunday afternoon jumping into the pool:  

Sunday Swimming

Duck, duck, duck,…goose!

Another dancing fool…

On Sunday we went to Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO. We all had a blast, especially Yago, who was tall enough for the kiddie rides (Daryoosh will have to wait for the the next trip, though). It was their last day of World Fest, and we stumbled upon music and dancing from India. We…
