Famliy Moments

Well for Easter Rigo and I went home and it was way to short. I was able to spent time with my family and Rigo was able to spent time with his family and then we all got together.


Here are Ava and Sofia my nieces my brother in law installed a zip line for the girls and at first they were a bit timid but after one try they were on that thing till the sun came down. They kept asking me to push them faster, just like their mom they love rides and speed, I don't so I will just hold the juice boxes.

Now at my in-laws we has a Easter egg hunt and cascarones and the only one that had flower some how landed on my head but it was all in good fun and anything for the kids

Monday

Well this past weekend we went to El Paso, I had to take a test to get certified in another subject area, hopefully this will make it easier to get a job. Rigo did some research and found great Mexican restaurants that we could eat at while we were there and they were great. We also shopped and picked up some art supplies. On Sunday we attended a party remembering Cesar Chavez. He was the original "YES WE CAN" and they asked Rigo to give a little talk and show his paintings. While we were watching the other events Rigo was thinking about how was he going to be able to relate to the subject matter. He started the talk and shared with the audience that he and his family were migrant workers for about 7 years. I was so proud that he shared that with the audience epically knowing how private a person my husband can be.
