Wow... I just realized I didn't post this blog... so here goes..
David, Vince, and I spent NY's in Laredo... I never know if it's NY's 2009 or NY's 2010. Anyways, my parents both grew up in Laredo and I still have a lot of extended family that live there, including my Grandma, mom's mom, aka Vince's only living Great Grandparent. Maria del Carmen Alvarez is her name and here she is with my mom, me, and Vince... it's our generation picture...
It was a cool night in Laredo, but that didn't stop us from hanging out outside a majority of the night. Vince had a grand old time playing with his cousins... or my cousins' kids... so I'm not sure what they are to him... second cousins?
Vince had his first experience with fireworks. He loved looking at them and wondering what exactly they were.
David is showing him what to do in this next picture. Not shown is other pictures of David getting carried away with fireworks... he's such a big kid. Did I mention fireworks are illegal in Laredo? You wouldn't know it by the bag of fireworks that my uncle brought in. I haven't really seen home fireworks since I was a kid so it was fun to watch them. The firecracker in the first picture is actually one of the bigger ones they did!
My mom with 2 of her sisters and her sister-in-law is pictured here with my grandma. The second one to the left is my aunt Rosy... she's the one with the party house..
And here are 5 of the 13 cousins on my mother's side of the family. We always have such a fun time together.
Next is David and me... with my cousin Freddy trying to get in the picture..
and this is my cousin's daughter who took a liking to David all night... David told me he was ready for a little girl... then retracted his statement and said, not yet! In the 2nd pic she is hanging on his leg!
All in all a good time was had... we are looking forward to a wonderful new year with family and friends... Happy New Year!
