Miguel's self Potraits

Miguel has obviously become a ham. He likes to make faces at the camera and do self portraits.

Christmas

Alex loved holding Carter at The Fritz house!













Miguel Really got into Christmas this year.













Alex got a little laptop to call his own.













Christmas eve we hit a pinata to celebrate. Miguel was able to break it open.












Alex didn't really like hitting it. He preferred to hit the metal poles so they would make a noise.












Alex isn't so sure of the white stuff this year either....a little too cold for him I think.












Guelly on the other hand loves it!

Christmas Eve Pinata!

Miguel's Birthday

Blowing out the candles on the combine cake!













On Miguel's actual birthday Mommy and the boys went to the Christmas Lights at the Zoo. They were pretty and the boys were well behaved!




















Alex was very upset he didn't get a Combine too!


















Miguel and his "Big" Combine!

Miguel's Birthday Cake

Here is Miguel's cake. We can thank Daddy for the enourmous header....he got a little carried away....and Mommy for the decorating. See everyone at my party on Saturday!!!

Our trip to Mexico

The boys enjoying their hot dogs and Kool Aid. No Mexican food for them! (well Guelly ate some)












How many Garcia's does it take to pull a Goat?













This new baby Goat was born while we were there. Miguel got to see it "pop" out.












Alex with some 2nd cousins.













Miguel Playing.













We visited a church in Sultepec. If you look behind the statue of the baby Jesus you can see little plastic toys that have been left for him.
















This picture shows all the things people "gave up" is return for whatever they were praying for. Many of it is hair and pictures of family members.











Daddy, Abuelo, and Tio .













You have to drive through a national forest to get to Abuelo's house. Very Pretty.












This is a picture of Toluca....we didn't stop to see anything here. Just drove through.













We just got back from Mexico. A day late but we are back. We missed out connecting flight in Houston because immigration wanted to be a pain in the neck with Daddy and kept him for questioning for 1 1/2. He got done 5 mins before the plane took off. We couldn't make it in that time so we got to stay in a hotel for the night because that was the last Continental flight to Detroit. But we thought it was great because Mommy ordered us Pizza!

Trick or Treat

Guelly decorated a pumpkin at the campground after the yearly trick or treat












Miguel was Spiderman and Alex was a Pirate.













We made Spider cupcakes to take to the campground. The boys really liked doing the decorating. Miguel had been worried when he looked at the picture in the magazine that they were real spiders....but after we started putting the cookies and candies on top he yelled..."Mommy! They aren't REAL spiders!"

We've been at the FAIR!!!!!

There was so much to see and do!!! Guelly was in the Pedal Tractor Pull and of course Mommy forgot the camera so you will just have to wait until Grandma Beans posts pictures to see that! He did great! Not a full pull (Guelly was disappointed he didn't win) but he did it and didn't cry!

Below are some pictures Mommy did take:

The Harley is going to be up for auction by the Sherrif's department. It was taken during a drug bust....Mommy said Daddy can't buy it!

The corn in the Farm Bureau Tent was a big hit again this year.
Miguel, Alex, and Hannah riding the Train!

We went to a wedding on the 4th of July for one of Nacho's friends from his old job. They had Tamales and Chips and Salsa.
Did Mom bring and snacks? ?...The bride and groom were a little late getting to the reception!
Guelly had fun playing with the balloons and under the table.
Daddy coming back from chasing down the kids.....again.
This is a couple weeks old but here is the cake Mommy, Miguel, and Alex made for Daddy for his birthday! Happy B-Day Daddy!

Week with Mom

Mom was off this week but she took surprisingly few pictures. (not really) But here are what she took.

Miguel riding a ride at the Paulding County Fair. Grandma Beans, Mommy, Miguel, and Alex went there on Thursday. We got home made ice cream, fries and sausage sandwiches. A great afternoon.

Alex and Grandma watching Miguel on the ride.


Mommy and Alex pose for a picture.

On a side note Mommy wants to thank Grandpa Beans for the Blue and Green cupcakes at the campground last night. Alex really loved the brightly colored frosting. So much so his poop was bright green today. (which mom expected). What mom Didn't expect is that it would stain his butt Green! She would have taken a picture but she figured that would break some kind of blog rule against child porn! Thanks Grandpa! At least it is his butt and not his face!!!!
