To be honest, I spent all day yesterday playing catch up from being gone. But 12 days of vacation was awesome and I only opened my computer twice the entire time. It was great to totally break up the routine and do something entirely different!
I finally got all my photos onto my computer (about 3000) and haven’t really even looked at them yet. But I know you are dieing to know how the meeting with the in-laws went first and foremost.
It was great! They are the nicest people! I took this photo of Dennis with his mom and dad, his aunt is on the left. All three of them speak Spanish and well, I don’t. So we couldn’t really communicate at all.
Haden was nice enough to shoot this photo for us. We really had a great time visiting. Well, I mostly listened – I comprehend a lot more Spanish than I could ever speak. So I was able to follow the conversations for the most part.
And although Haden shies away from the camera we did weasel him into a photo or two. I’m really happy I got to meet them and am hoping to catch up with them again before they go back to Honduras.

It must have been really exciting to get to meet them. I am sure you were nervous and the language barrier a bit trying, but it sounds like you fell right into place. The photos are wonderful!

Glad you had a great time. Sounds like you did really well for not speaking the language. I know that can be hard at times. Everyone looks so happy to be together.

Hi Lisa, Great photo! Glad you got to meet them! I bet you need a vacation after your vacation! I have no altered books to mail to you either, because I have not received any ..so you get some time off from that while you catch up on the hundreds of other things that you have to do! Glad you are home safe and sound:)

Great family photos! That sounds like quite an experience, meeting your in-laws who speak another language. A break away from the computer must have been refreshing.
