Random hodge-podge again!
Then again, that is the story of our life right now... ;)
Dinner or lunch-time at the Rink house is never a quick affair -- too many talkers!
I like that, though... maybe 'cause I'm a "talker" too?!? :)
Every Tuesday night Joel and I take turns going on "dates" with one of the kids (an idea admittedly copied from some of our friends) and it has been a hit! It's amazing to have one-on-one time with each of them -- especially since it doesn't happen that often in a large family!!!
Above, Candi and I went to the "new" Yummy Panda Chinese/Japanese restaurant in Magdalena (which is pretty good) for our date and she got orange chicken; which looked more like BRIGHT RED chicken, but tasted good! :)
Grape-eater! I lost count after the first ten, or fifteen, or...
One of my joys while living here in Mexico has been learning to make salsas -- and it's always so aesthetically and aromatically pleasing, too!
[I don't know that my husband would always agree, though... :)]
Isn't Aron a sweetie??? :)
Marcos was not feeling so good one afternoon and his DAD decided to take a bunch of pics of him -- so this is to chronicle that rotten experience! ;)
Little boys and big boys just havin' fun!
Oh yes, we must dress up in Mom's heels and "perform," right?!?
[I have to admit that she will soon be able to actually WEAR my shoes... she is going to have big feet, this one!]
And, of course, someone else needs to copy!!!
[I wonder how many pics there are of little boys wearing Mom's heels in this world?!?]
Playin' in the mud, eatin' grass... life is good! :)
Yep. We like to leave our baby on the cement slab. :)
[Sidenote: Can't do this anymore! Now he would roll right off... yikes!]
At least he was happy while there...!
This guy LOVES to help Dad!
So does this one!!! :)
Looking for the toy that rolled under the fridge... or was that the marker? or the bink? or the ball? or the... the list goes ON and ON. :)
Marcos and I after our date in town! We had to laugh as we looked at this picture and realized that we both had something stuck in our front teeth... go ahead, click on the pic and zoom in close!
Quote The Emperor's New Groove while you're at it, sistas... ;)
