Hola friends & family!
We hope this finds you doing well! We've had a couple big developments in our family in the past week: Luke played futbol and Caroline stayed in gymnastics by herself! We were SO proud of both of them. They are really doing well and you can tell they are proud of their accomplishments too. Jackson is doing great as well, the first picture is of his latest get-up. :) We are going to have a digger birthday party on the beach for him on the 15th with a couple of his little friends and their families.
We also had another very fun day in Barcelona on Sunday. We went to the 10am service at church, and one of these pictures is of Luke practicing with the Christmas chorus. We then went to a Spanish village on Montjuic called Poble Espanyol. It was first created for the International Exhibition held in Barcelona in 1929. It showcases architectural styles and artisan craftsmanship from many different parts of Spain. We loved the cobblestone streets and beautiful buildings. We had a picnic lunch in the main plaza, where the kids spent a LONG time being entertained by the pigeons. We then went to an area of Montjuic called Jardins Costa i Llobera, where there are beautiful gardens and a cable car that takes you out across the port to Barceloneta. The kids were SO excited to ride this. One picture is of the cable car coming to pick us up, and the next is a view from the car. The last picture is of the baroque church of San Miquel del Port in Barceloneta. We are really enjoying all of these areas that we have been able to explore, they are so beautiful.
We've also had fun decorating the house a bit, hanging stockings, and listening to Christmas music. We're going to participate in some Christmas caroling in the main square in Sitges on the evening of the 15th, which I think the kids will love. We've also been able to finalize tickets to come to PA for Christmas! The kids and I will be there from the 17th to the 31st, and Brian will be there from the 24th to the 31st. We're looking forward to seeing many of you then!
Con amor,
Tonya
