Got Bike Love???

Eko is growing so much, so fast. He still loves cars and because we have so many aircrafts passing all day long, he likes to watch them and say "Bye,Bye Airplane." But his new love is..... BIKES!!!! He loves watching them, riding them and taking pictures in front of them. The other day he saw these two bikes by our house and he made me go take a picture of them with him.




Eko le encantan las motosicletas. El otro dia me hiso ir a la casa de nuestros besinos para tomar estas fotos de el con las motocicletas.

Father's Day weekend... Kindda long

This weekend was so much fun. We had a blast celebrating Father's day. There are alot of pictures so I posted them small so if you want to see them bigger just double click on the picture to enlarge.









On saturday Eko and I meet up with mark for lunch. We went to a sushi buffet, It was SO GOOD. We all loved it. Eko had as much food as we did, good thing he is free.
















































In the afternoon Eko and I did this sign with chalk on our front door. since we did it on our neighbor's side too we put the father's name too. The little boy is 18 months, and is eko's only friend here in virginia. We had fun making it but It was so hot (101 degrees according 2 the car)




























Mark really liked the sign outside and inside Eko had this drawing he did the day before.




















On sunday morning I got up way early and did a yummy breakfast for mark and eko (there was more food than what you see here but it was still cooking)
















After breakfast we got ready and went to church. The talks were all so good and spiritual. When we got home we had a package from mark's parents (We love packages during the summer). it had something for all 3 of us, WE LOVED IT, they are awesome. After our cool package we changed clothe and went to a cool sea food buffet called captain George. IT was "Oh so good." by the time we left the line to get in was to the street and the wait was 3 hours. CRAZY!!!












































Eko had on his new cute muscle shirt that said "I get my muscles from my dad." Mark loved it.












After lunch, we went for a walk at the beach, they had an art show going on. I love art so it was a treat to me. Some of the Art work was amazing. I thought the sea horse was kindda cute.




















But my favorite was this guy who did photography but printed them in canvas so they looked like painting. His work was breath taking. If i can be half as good as him someday I would have accomplish my dream. Here is some of his work.

















































Isn't he amazing!!!

Ok so quick note, here in virginia there are these signs all over the city telling people not to curse. and ofcourse people still do it but if a cop hears you you can get a fine...I LOVE THEM!!!








Ok so to end our wonderful weekend we FINALLY found these honduran soccer shirts. I have been looking for these since before eko was born and we finally found them. They are not the best ones I have ever seen but they are still awesome. Isn't eko the cutest soccer player ever.

I can't believe It's been 3 years already.


Yesterday Mark and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary which means I have had this blog for a year cause my first post was last year's anniversary pictures. But anywho, In honor for our anniversary I will post a few things that have happened in the last three year.Let's call it....

What let to Marriage.

This is our wedding invitation. I don't look as great as I should cause mark pushed me in the ocean about 30 minutes before our photographer got there so my hair was ruined for good. I still love how it came out tho.













Before we got engaged, Mark and I dated for a year. He actually proposed on our 1 year anniversary at the same restaurant we had gone on our first date.

This was our first picture together, not the best. most of our first few pictures where taken on film cameras so they are hard to post.














This was our first fall together, It was a great time in our relationship, around this time is when we decided that maybe we were meant for each other.For eternity (after 9-10 months together)




























Our first christmas together, a few weeks before this picture we had adopted Our dog buddy, We said that he was our love child and that if we could take care of a dog then we could get married, It's silly I know but we wanted to make sure. We love buddy, he is the best dog EVER!


















On our one year anniversary, Mark propose and he did it perfectly, but thats an other story. We forgot to take pictures that day, we were too excited and in cloud 9. But this is us in tour with our dance group, I believe this is the sacred grove, right after that we went to the DC temple.














We were engaged for 6 months before we got married. We got married June, 16th, 2006. It was a glorious day. Everything was perfect, even the rain that was coming down hard when we went in to the temple went away and we had a beautiful sunny day for pictures. We got married at the Salt Lake City Temple, or "the castle" how my non- member friends call it. We were suppose to get married in DC temple or the San Diego temple but they were both close that day
































This was our first picture together (after the wedding pictures ofcourse). We were in california where we moved after we got married. These were the most glorious days of our lives.


















A few months after we got married we found out Eko would be joining our little family. He was a BIG surprise but Now we can't imagine our lives without him.






























Eko was born on April 26th, 2007. This is us on june 16th, celebrating our 1 year anniversary with baby eko in wisconsin where we were living for the summer.




























A year later, It's us celebrating our 2 year anniversary in boston, Our favorite anniversary yet. It was perfect, romantic dinner at a 5 star restaurant, a walk around downtown boston including the washington garden, a movie and a walk under the stars, perfect!!!!
































After over 2 years married, we finally got to go on our honeymoon cruise to mexico, we were suppose to go to hawaii right after we got married but things came up and we never did. so last october we were able to go to mexico for a week and even tho we missed eko, we had a blast.












And this is us now, Our little family. this picture was taken last april 2009. Eko has grown a lot since then but kids never stop growing so thats ok. Our little family will stay a family of 3 for an other year or two for those of you that were asking. hehe


















And this is us yesterday, celebrating our 3 year anniversary, It was the end of the day at a theme park so we were tired, I will post the rest of our day at bush garden's later on the week.



















So over all we have had a great 3 years, There has been a lot of trials in our lives but working together and with the Lord at our side, we have been able to work through them. We love each other and are so bless to have so many great people in our lives. Thank you to all our Family and Friends for always being there for us. 3 years down and a WHOLE ETERNITY to go.
