@ Ibis & Elizabeth's: 05/31/2007

Ibis, thank you for a wonderful playdate. I hope that this is better than just reading a good book. I always remember what u once said to me, that you just wanted to be reading a good book instead of dealing with toddlerhood again. Well my friend,,, I must say that you, as well as US, have been blessed with such precious creatures. I cannot stop looking at the pictures in this blog and feel so lucky for the children we have and for the friendship and group we share. Thanks to all!

Ok,,enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! back to the fun part!!!!!!!!!!!!! ENJOY the pics ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Today we had delicious wraps made a la Carte by Publix delivered to Mrs. Maimo. We also had delicious Pink Lemonada Daiquiri a la mode. And for dessert, we had a Maimo's unique cheesecake homemade. The best cheesecake ever... Forget Cheesecake Factory with its famous cheesecakes,,,, Here comes Ibis with her special recipe. The kids had pizza and cup cakes. They loved eating and stuffing those cup cakes into their mouths.

It was a fun day. The kids got in the pool while Jenny started out as our lifeguard on duty. We had 2 beautiful guests today: Daniella & Jillie. They prepared their towels to get a sun tan in the Maimo's deck. They had some separation time of their own and they did not want the LRD to follow them as they were enjoying their separation time. You go girls!!!

Ok,,, Janel mentioned today regarding our next night out. Please check your schedules and see if we can all do it this coming Wednesday. You guys wanted Mexican so we can try Taco Bell,,, NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! jaja!! Maybe 'On The Border'. So check with your hubby babysitting services. Enjoy the pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want to go to Walmart and see if I find Jillie's bathing suit.

love ya all!

05/27/2007: Hollywood Beach-->@ The Maimo's Condo

--->The Maimo's Condo!!

Well........ what an exciting day! We went to the Maimo's Condo @ Hollywood Beach. We had lots of fun @ the luxurious Alexander Towers. Daniella, Elizabeth, & Carolina had a blast at the pool playing with all kinds of toys. Daniella was hired as our personal separation time assistant but at the end of the day, she quit without pay. She just wanted OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!! She even warned us that on our playdates, she will have some good separation time. jaja! Ibis, remember that? So, I hope she was just kidding!

Anyway, you will see one of the pics how Ibis was talking to Elizabeth at the beach in a corner,,, hmm!! well,, she was doing a 'Jenny Talk.' E. went wild at the beach and started throwing sand to everyone who would come her way. She wanted to have fun,,, cut her some slack. On the other hand, Mike (Mr. Maimo) se daba unas desaparecidas. jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Decia que iba a buscar algo y se iba al condo a mirar shows de Golf. And then, he brought Ibis' new camera in a new water proof bag called 'Publix waterproof reusable bag.' That bag was excellent for Ibis' new Nykon D40X!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tremenda camera que se compró Ibis, which Mike kept the receipt to return it one day when Ibis gets tired of it. But Ibis made it very clear that she loves her camera and nothing was going to come between her and her Nikon. Asi que compórtate Mike. Vamos a ver!!!

Ok,, girls!!!!!!!!!!!!! We definitely had a blast! Just sitting and relaxing at the beach. The weather was perfect (not hot nor humid). Me and Ibis had some separation time of our own while Daniella did some modeling close to the waves of the ocean and E & C extended her hands (see pic) calling Daniella to come back. We laughed, we screamed, we relaxed, we did it all!! We had a blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We were the first ones to entrenar the Maimo's at the Beach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for inviting us guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How did E. sleep when we left????????

Enjoy the pics!!! You know what to do!

Thursday at the Campo's

Today we met at Tonito's house.

Maria and Carolina won the early bird special by arriving a miraculous 15 minutes early....good going girls!!

We relaxed on my new sexy red lounge chairs...





While the children built incredible 20 story buildings at the sand and water tables...









VIP Guest of Honor today was my handsome loving husband Tony...



Tony is teaching the kids how to swing out of a sticky situation...a very valuable life lesson.



If ever in trouble...swing like Tarzan!!





What is this, you might ask?
Is it a new serving platter?
Is it a new frisbee??
I say, NOT!!!



Surprise!! It is our brand new, newly installed olympic-size swimming pool! Comfortable seating for 3 -4 bodies. I swim 500 laps every day and benefit from a great cardiovascular exercise.



If you act now, you too can have one for the super low price of $2.99. Operators are standing by, waiting for your call!!



Act now, they are going fast!!



Arts and Crafts: the children decorated top of the line, custom-made, multi-colored foam picture frames with personalized stickers and hot pink glitter....Wow!!













Unfortunately, our photographer Jenny had to leave due to unforeseen circumstances. We were all very sorry that TJ was hurt and wish him the best.

Until next week.....everyone have an exciting, healthy, rainless Memorial Day Weekend!!

Love you, my friends.

Rotelli's

Good Evening, my friends.

The Campo's and Medina's met at Rotelli's tonight for some food and fun.


We met up with the Charlie's Angels and they said they were keeping their eyes on this strange couple they have been investigating.

Here we see Charlie relaxing...what a hard worker.




This is his little protege' doing some undercover work...he's got his eyes on the target...just in case something goes wrong.


This is the couple we have to watch out for..Ray and Maria...they are bad news!!!


Look how she is signaling her partner Ray to go thru the pretty lady's purse while she is distracted smiling for a photo.


Did you see that??? They made the switch under the table...the purse is gone.





Here Ray is trying to buy Charlie a drink to keep him distracted from what is really happening.


Ray is trying to bribe Charlie with a pizza if he keeps his mouth shut and does not call the police.


AHHHHHHHHHHH!! A pizza with the works!

The devious couple slipped out the back door while Charlie and his Angels were devouring that hot cheesy pizza pie.


Those two escaped once again!
"We'll get them next time", says Charlie to the Angels...Let's Eat!!




And they drank plenty of coffee because they'd be up all night looking for the missing couple.


In the meantime, nobody realized until it was too late that there was a strange smell coming from the corner table...the stinky lady had taken off her shoes....UGH!! Oh no....!!!!!!


We must all hold our breaths or die of Funky Foot Intoxication...this is a very nasty gas that once released into the air will knock a person out in seconds.


Stay tuned for previews of next weeks episode!!!

@ Carolina & Maria's

Today we met at my house!!! I am glad that we were all able to be together. I hope that everyone had fun!

Ok, first the kids played with play-doh and then, they went on exploring and doing their own thing. Some of them played inside the playhouse; others played using their abilities to jump the rope or pushing each other in the wagon.

Ray (Marcelo) was our waiter today and he was fabulous. We definitely have to hire him again. He prepared Frozen Lemon Daiquiri and honestly, some of us were already on a trip. We were so relaxed, we decided to take a nap and Ray volunteered as a nanny for a while. Wow! what a separation time. Jenny,,u r soo funny!! Me encanta what u say: Playdates would be better without the LRD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! jaja! That is so funny! We have to start planning our next get away (night dinner)..I am ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok,, the kids had pizza and Marcelo (the waiter) had tacos for the ladies. He was a hit today!! YOU GOT IT GOING ON MICURRI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am soooo sleepy because of the daiquiries... I am ready to go to sleep. I do not think I can even go in the treadmill. jaja!!

Well ladies,,, enjoy the pictures!!!! I enjoyed them very much! Jenny, thanks so much for being the photographer for the day!

Saturday Night!! 05/12/2007

Tonight it was a fun night. We met with Ibis and husband and E. for dinner and then, we went walking @ The Falls. We ate dinner @ Hops at the Falls. Then, we were so stuffed so we decided to walk around the Falls for a little while. We went to Build-A-Bear because Daniella wanted to buy a gift card for her friend's bday. Carolina and Elizabeth were all over the place.
Ibis was trying to decide which outfit to buy for herself.
She finally decided to just take a picture with a bear.
She then realized that she is almost becoming a B-A-B fan.
Ray had a hairdo done at Build-A-Bear.

Mike was hiding from every single picture.
Ray was confused on which hairdo looked better on him.
Finally, he decided to go redhead!! And the undies could not be forgotten!
He really loved being a redhead. And the braids were his fav.

Mike was finding an accessory to match with his tux.
E. was walking with a Cinderella dress all over the store.
Caro, just like her dad, into computers.
E & C holding hands to cross the street.
How cute!! The end!
What a fun night!
