Between when we got back from the Pacific coast trip and our journey to Manuel Antonio, I had exactly 24 hours at my house. So, I went with the fam to see a movie, to mass, and then to the birthday party-lunch. I think I slept a little in there somewhere as well.
Highlights:
-Joking around with the aunts (in Spanish, of course) and actually feeling like I knew what was going on and I could say what I wanted. Excito!
-The very sincere and heartfelt toasts everyone gave for Javier. It was really sweet to hear their birthday wishes for him. Especially one cousin, who said, "Hope you have a happy birthday." Kind of reminds me of a cousin I have in the states...
-A bunch of fat little puppies. Even though I'm not an animal person, I thought they were fun.
-Javier's Lightning McQueen birthday cake! Yes, I typed it correctly at the opening of this post. Fifteen.
