What a surprise to see it snowing outside our home this morning! We heard it hasn't snowed like this in New Orleans since the 70's. It was Tavo, Magdalena and Nino's first time to experience snow. Tavo wasn't so sure what to think about it.

Magdalena Charming More Grandparents
Here's two cute photos of Magdalena and her grandparents McDonald. They stayed for a few days after the baptism and got to hear Tavo's first word "agua." Yay!
Baptism for Two Acunas
On November 30th, both Ninito and Magdalena were baptized at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in New Orleans. The priest, Father Tony, had just returned from a trip to the Holy Land and brought back water from the River Jordan to baptize the children with. It was a moving ceremony and we were happy to share the occasion with grandparents from both our families and our neighbors Claudia and Benicio. Ninito was sick, but fortunately had a brief respite and was able to make it to his baptism. Magdalena wore the dress that her mother, aunt and two nieces were baptized in.
Magdalena Meets Abuelita Christina
Magdalena finally got to meet her abuelita Christina over Thanksgiving. Her grandmother even made her laugh out loud for the first time! Tavo also had fun with his abuelita. Here is a photo of them feeding ducks at City Park
