Carnival in Sitges

Hola Amigos y Familia! We hope you are all doing well. This week was carnival week in Sitges, and we went to the kids parade on Tuesday afternoon. I had gotten the boys cowboy outfits and a princess dress for Caroline, but Luke & Caroline wouldn't wear them on Tuesday. Oh well! They wore them last Thursday to the home of the Norwegians, but I didn't take any pictures then. :(
As we were watching the parade the kids on the floats were throwing a TON of confetti at everyone, so we got covered! Here's Jack looking up at me from the stroller.
Some funny looking clowns with glasses like the ones I had in 4th grade!! Ha ha!
Caroline loved all the pretty dresses. You can see that the street is just covered in confetti.
Caroline loved all the pink feathers too.
One cowboy, one costume-less cowboy, and a princess in sweats. :)
The kids having a donut snack after the parade.
We then walked through old town to the library, and went on Caroline's favorite street. We love the cobblestone and all the old buildings.
Luke wanted me to take a picture of him throwing confetti at me, so that's what is going on here! He collected a bag full during the parade, and had fun throwing it on the rest of us.
We didn't actually spend much time in Barcelona this past weekend except for going to church. Sunday afternoon we went to a pizza party at our Australian/American friends Ellen & Arthur's house (their son is one of Luke's friends). Sunday evening we watched the Tarheels beat Florida State in overtime (yahooooo!!!) This week we've been getting ready for the Walter family from Landisville to arrive with their 3 kids! We have tents set up in the kids rooms, and just stocked the fridge with food, so I think we're all set. Should be fun!! I'm sure we'll have lots of pictures to share from their visit, as well as Caroline's birthday party on Saturday.
Lots of love to you all. Have a great week!
