First Visitors in Febrero!

My mom came to visit at the end of January and stayed through mid February. It was wonderful to share our life with her and have someone to talk to who has gone through many, many transitions and changes. She was incredibly empathetic and wise and encouraging and all-around-helpful. AND she took care of Ben a lot, so we could go out on much needed dates. Thank you mama, for loving us and our baby boy so well. Here are some pics from our time together:

Cuddling with his Lela


A much needed trip to the beach...

Ben was not excited about posing for this picture...

I love them.



Our good friends Andy and Jamie Alm also came to visit in February. They only stayed for a week, but we packed a LOT into our time together. Andy is an amazing photographer...here's a bit of what we did as seen through his camera lens:

We took the elevator up Cerro San Cristobal so we could enjoy...


THE VIEW...



We walked the "El Bosque" business district...

We took a wine tour...

We explored downtown Santiago...

AND, we went to the beach (along with HUNDREDS of others...)
Thanks Andy and Jamie for coming to see us and for making some great memories together! It meant so much to be able to share "my Chile" with you both!
