C.C. Andino - June 18

Last week, some very good friends, the Castañeda family, invited Mateo and Francesca to centro comercial Andino to the kid's amusement park. Oh what fun! Jairo Andres treated Mateo and Francesca like a prince and princess and Mateo went on every ride and played every game... it really was a special treat for my two babies.

Gracias, amigos Beltran-Castañeda! Fue una tarde espectacular!

Mateo loved jumping in the balls. After playing a while, he decided to start throwing the balls outside of their home. One of the ladies who works at the park came over to tell him not to, and Jairo Andres rushed to defend Mateo... "Please talk to the child in English. He does not understand Spanish, so if you want him to understand you, you need to talk to him in English!" That was that!

Mateo wanted to play this again and again ... "Mas, Amigo!" he would say to Jairo Andres

Francesca also had a great time at Archie's!
