Every weekend seems to turn out to be a fun weekend. I guess you just can't go wrong when Dad doesn't have to work and can hang out with us all day.
Saturday night we went to Cafe Madrid with Kim and Javier for their Running of the Bulls annual celebration. We all decked ourselves out in red and white, and the kids were enthralled with the flaminco dancers and the guy walking around in a bull costume taking pictures. And we won a couple door prizes - I won a bottle of wine, and Grace won a kid-size t-shirt from the same wine company featuring their bull on it. Even though the restaurant was beastly hot and the service was slow due to all the customers, it was still a fun time and something a little different to do.
We came back home and played a couple mean games of Uno with everyone, so Grace got to discover how much more fun it is to play with more than two or three people. But what I loved the most was, after Kim and Javier left, to see Jim on the floor with both kids belly-flopping on top of him ("oofing" him). It's one of their favorite games to play. And it's the kind of enjoyment you don't realize you can have until you have kids. So I'm so happy Kim and Jav are almost there. Only a couple more months to go!
