Chris and I are lucky to have many places we can call home. My grandparents' house in Puerto Rico is one of those places. We usually visit a few times a year to spend time with our family and enjoy the beautiful island. This visit was special because we arrived in time to celebrate my grandmother's birthday and our friends from Cambridge were visiting with their adorable 6 month old son, Zachary. We also got to see my cousin Diana and hear about how she won a major advertising contest with a PSA spot she wrote & directed starring Nani & Bebo. She is going to Cannes, France this summer for the finals and our fingers are crossed that she wins! We also got to see my cousin, Jose Daniel, play the guitar first hand which was very impressive. Hopefully his band, Boycott, will have a YouTube page soon!
After traveling for 20 days straight, it was really nice to feel at home for a week! Below are some of the highlights from our trip. As always, it was really hard to leave and we miss everyone very much, but we look forward to coming back soon!
