La familia Hamilton

The Hamilton's came to visit this past weekend. We loved having them. A few highlights:



Spent Saturday downtown and


climbed to the top of the cathedral for the bell tower tour. I've been on better tours, though the 12 pesos was worth it for the view, and watching everyone gather round the bull horn guy to hear the stats and names of the various bells.


M went to school with S, where they made Mexican flags for independence day. They waved them all the way home, which people found very entertaining.




And lots of trips to the playground. N seemed to fall in love with C, and was always giving hugs, or poking her eyes out. He did that a lot. She mostly put up with the attention.

Wandering Nana, I deleted your comment, due to the use of S's super secret name, but I'm glad to hear from you. Thanks for checking up on us. We miss tx girl and family too.

Looks like such a great trip! Could a possible double brother/sister wedding be in the works? ;)

When I showed Paul this post, he sighed and said, "I miss those people. They're some of my favorite friends."

Glad you guys had a good time!

In Sunbeams, at least once every Sunday, I am told by at least one of the kids in my class that they want to be like S or they want to marry S or they miss S. No joke. It happened again today when the question was posed--"Who is someone you think you would like to be like because they are a good example?" You guessed it! He has definitely not been forgotten.

Wow, you guys are really nice. The story about the esteem in which S is held, just makes me laugh. Absence makes the heart grow fonder?
