Nico el Pescador

Para el 4 de julio nos fuimos al lago a comer un asadito y pescar. Teniamos en frente nuestro a dos pescadazos de 40 cm. de largo que no picaban ni a palos! Daban saltos adelante nuestro y todo. Si tuviesen lengua los peces seguro que nos la sacaban!

Mi companero de tenis y fiel amigo, el ingeniero de articulaciones humanas artificiales German Loesener--con su mama Lilia. Dicen que Ger es el mejor asador del Condado de Hazard. Ger, ponete las pilas y dejame ganarte un set loco!

Nico el Explorador

Despues de pescar nos fuimos a explorar por el sendero.

Y nos tomamos un descanso para tomar agua y regar los yuyitos.

For my birth day in Saint George...

We made 56 home-made empanadas that were twice as big as regular empanadas. And as you can see from this picture, Amberly even made the dough which I helped knead.

I thought there was no way only 10 adults and a few kids could ever finish that many empanadas. Oh... was I wrong! Those were the best empanadas I've ever had!

Amberly got me a Cold Stone frozen cake I'm still dreaming about...


Thank you Clarksons for having us over! We love hanging out with you!

The Dynamic Trio

Match the following statements with a child from this picture:
a. The handsome Argentine cousin
b. The perfectly behaved cousin
c. The dynamo, fun-must-be-attained-at-any-price cousin

Christiana Bell, Sophie, and Nico were born just a few months apart from each other and love hanging out. It's so fun to see their little personalities show from so early on. Sophie is my twin niece--she was born on my birthday :) Rafa

Beautiful Utah Mountains

This picture was taken 25 minutes from home. Many people drive longer to get to work than we do to get here.

Robert Redford fell in love with these mountains while filming the movie Jeremiah Johnson. His property is just a few minutes up this very road, and is where he hosts the famous Sundance Film Festival every year. My dad actually bumped into him at a store a couple of years ago. I haven't met him personally yet, but I have ran into Kenny Rogers-the legendary country singer and one of Redford's friends-not far from here while he was riding his motorcycle.
