Monday morning with the boys!!

School holidays are here and Monday morning had my nephews all to myself!!!!



As per ritual, we stooped at the 3eightnine for a 2 Di Bella babycinos for the boys and a cappuccino for myself.











Afterwords, a stroll in the beach, collecting shells, and making sand castles, taking photographs :)



















Before heading home a quick stop for fig tree and climbing cubs at the park.

Erik's 7th and Amber's 4th Birthday!!!!

Perfect weather for a family get together to celebrate Erik's 7th and Amber's 4th birthday!!













Avo Fatima slowly recovering from her car accident.















I feel so lucky to have my family around I wouldn't trade for anything in the world.







The piñata was sure to be a hit for the young and old kids!













At the menu a specialty of Porto, the Francesinha, which is a sandwich made with toasted bread, wet-cured ham, linguiça, fresh sausage like chipolata, steak or roast meat and covered with molten cheese and a hot thick tomato and beer sauce (mine was seafood :).









A delicious strawberry dessert with home made chocolate mouse which definitely adds zing to this luscious dessert!!!







Time to be entertained by talented Angie (violine & piano), Hugo (piano) and Erik (guitar), Amber (flute).













Uncle Ben tuning it in.









Beautifully surprised to see my portraits of the girls on canvas :)
