Quijote and I helped with Anapra enrollment and with the graduation ceremony. We went to my cousin Sami’s graduation... we took so many pics! including one of the few "couple" pics we took this summer. Aren't we cute? 
Q and I had a great time introducing his family to my entire (and I really mean ENTIRE) family. I hope Quijote’s parents had as much fun as we did >:)
Q and I also went out on vacation with my parents and my two kid siblings… and he almost freaking gave me a full system failure, with his suicidal motorcycle (or what are they called, again?) driving… [I still haven’t forgiven you.] But we did have a wonderful, romantic dinner the night before leaving Puerto Peñasco, which made me feel much better :)
We also celebrated my birthday! rather, my no-cumplean~os :D! :P...
We visited the INBA museum, we ate sushi, then went to a coffee shop for frapuccinos and crepes, and finally tried to see the jirafa at the park, but it was closed by then. I also got to open my present! Q gave me an absolutely gorgeous necklace. It has a history too! It was made by an artist that specializes in ~2000 year old Roman glass found in Jerusalem’s archeological sites, isn’t that amazing? mwajaja.. my entire family had to hear that little sentence a few times… I just had to show it off :D!
Q left on the 31st. It was still a little painful. Despite the prolonged visit… It still caught me off guard. Neither of us had time to think about it much, though. He had school and work waiting for him and I had a Quinceañera to tend to.
Abi’s XV was on the 4th of August. It was amazing. The service felt intimate and family oriented, and the dinner / pool party afterwards was just as rewarding. I say rewarding because Abi and I worked oooh so very hard, and it was worth it. The country club we had it in has a beautiful garden/ tree area, and we had a white canopy put up on the far end of it. We had rose candles, lilac and silver center pieces, and contrasting paper ornaments that hung like fun chandeliers over the tables. It all looked so fun and beautiful! We had a DJ and LOTS of food, peach and milk cake, a nice refreshing pool, beach volleyball… and go karts! We had such a blast! Abi wore two very beautiful classic dresses, but no gown, since the reception was at a country club, and she had a lilac orchid bouquet to go with them. We went for a “simple contemporary” style. I will save you the details and simply say that she looked absolutely amazing :)! She is such a beautiful, beautiful girl! I've still got to download the party pictures, but I have a great pic of her we took at the studio:
She is a bit crazy too. The night before her XV, she had a sleep over party for what we (lol) called her “VIP friends.” I did not go to sleep till 5am. Three others went to sleep a little later, and Abi and her two best friends did not go to sleep till 7am. We had lasagna, fruit mousse, grapes and cherries with cheese, Doritos with salsa, chocolates, and popcorn. We made Abi a XV gown… with toilet paper! We ate a lot, played Marco Polo in the dark, played with the Wii, told horror stories by a candle light, and watched a movie. We talked about boys, of course, and had a blast telling silly stories about Abi. I think she had a great time :)!
The week after that (a couple days ago) my Dad and I had our birthday … we went out to eat and then Misael took me and Abi to the movies. Abi got us some treats –the traditional Misiones crepes and frapuccinos :). And then we came home and slept…. It was great!
So there it is… my summer so far. One month to go. I’ll leave for

We loved your family.Your summer with Q was amazing.
This next year should be
hectic but fun for both of you.
Be careful among the English in Boston.Work hard.Remember the Wroe's are in Boston, and we are but a phone call away.
Oh yeah. Q is around too.
I wish I had had time to talk to your father about religion. Though I turned out quite different we both had the same background I wonder what drove him away.
We love you.Be good. Don't let those Harvard provincials affect you....Q's D
I protest that my driving was not suicidal. It was simply a way to keep the ATV from sliding sideways down the rest of the dune.
Jijiji. It was a wonderful month sweety, and I miss you a lot. Hopefully I'll get internet soon, and won't have to borrow my sis' computer.
