Coco has a Sleep-Over!

Coco has a sleep-over! Naturally we had to cook (we made banana muffins)... and play the gramaphone... and even swim a little! 'Twas great good fun!

Trey and Jack come to visit!

Erin brought Trey and Jack to see my new house, and we had lots of fun at the beach - and kayaking in the Harbor!

Taylor with her cousins

These pictures are out of order, but Taylor spent a fun afternoon with her cousins, Jack and Alex, before we left on vacation. Here they are, enjoying their time together (and, in the last picture, exploring my new neighborhood!)...

Off to San Jose!

Back from the jungle to the (very) relative civilization of our hotel at Tortuguero, we relax in the pool and enjoy virgin pina coladas (well, for some of us they were virgin!)... Saturday we left for San Jose - note the Tortuguero International Airport! - stopping at a coffee plantation and butterfly garden enroute. Taylor ensconced herself in the comfort of the Intercontinental Hotel with her "Madlibs" and then proclaimed - "You know - as nice as this hotel is, it could be in any city. I think I prefer Tortuguero - it's unique!" That comment made me feel the trip was a success!
