Over the holiday weekend we hosted Bernardo, Andrea and their two sweet girls, Federica (hereafter known forever more as ‘Sebe’ in our house) and Florencia. The Lopez/Davalos family will always have a special spot in our hearts since they were part of one of our three first dates (long story short – the first two dates didn’t go so well. Neither did the third really, but it was a vast improvement over the other two). Our third first date was at the civil marriage ceremony for Bernardo and Andrea. (In Ecuador you have two weddings – one civil, one church). Any wedding party where the groom is taken out in a stretcher has to be forever known as a raging good party. Good times.
We visited with Berni & Andrea in September of last year when we went to NYC to the US Open. I never got around to posting the pictures from that trip because, at that time, my fancy camera was brand new and frankly I couldn’t figure out how to download the pictures. So I took this opportunity to put together a little video montage of pictures from then and now. Frankly, I’ve spent far too much time on it, but I SO enjoyed the process. The girls had a grand time both visits and this trip we were amazed by Fede’s awesome dancing skills. I mean, Emilia might have enthusiasm for dance, but Fede’s got full Latina-girl rhythm. It’s fabulous. (The first song is pretty self-explanatory – I mean it’s “Empire State of Mind” – hello?! The second song is the theme song from the World Cup. With Bernardo and Marcus they watched an AWFUL lot of soccer over the weekend and so we kept hearing this music in the background.

can't get the movie to pull up?! will try again later!
Emi and Marcus in full stride on the streets of NYC and the 2 girls in the crib together in NYC are favs! LOVE the bilingual music and the dancing girls in the Epicenter?...they look like such groupies! the other on-lookers were definitely more interested in the girls than the musicians! Emi looks 2 years older in the CLT part?! Great movie...bet you are so glad you finally did it...YAY!
PS...couldn't pull it up on your blog but got it up on Vimeo??? Maybe try re-embeding it?
Worked this time! Man wanna go to NYC pronto. Love this! The dancing is killing me. Especially how Emi is all over the place and Fede's like stop it. Watch me with her little hip move. Heehee. What great times yall had. Love the Central Park shots, esp the one of you lying down holding Emi and the detail shots of the hand holding and the toe/foot one. Do you have a Mac and do this on Imovie? or something else?
