Trip to Panajachel

One of the places I grew up going to at least once a year was Panajachel, Guatemala.... it holds many, many great memories... and we were able to go make more again, this time with ALL of us.... including our Salvadoran "aunt", "uncle", and "cousin". We spent so much time with them growing up, they were as family to us. As you can see, we ate, played games, went kyaking, played croquet, and went on a beautiful boat ride around the lake called Atitlan.
Uno de los lugares donde he ido toda mi vide con mi familia es a Panajachel, Guatemala.... tiene muchas memorias bonitas para mi alli... y fuimos a hacer mas memorias con toda la familia. Pasamos un tiempo bonito jugando cartas, en el kayuko, jugando croquet y yendo en un bote alrededor del Lago Atitlan.

Discovery

As usual, my voice is very annoying, but it really IS amazing to see her really looking at her hand for the first time... :)
Mi voz se oye raro otra vez, pero si es chivo ver como ella está descubriendo su mano por primera vez... :)

My cousin, Scott, and his wife, Kat, came over with their son, Clark, to meet Tory. He is two months older, and so cute! And I couldn't end without a picture of Tory and a new video of her "walking".
Mi primo, Scott y su esposa Kat, vinieron a visitar a Victoria con su hijito de 4 meses, llamado Clark. Y no pude terminar sin una foto linda de Victoria y un video de ella "caminando".
