Puerto Rico with the Wysons, our new home, and the 4th of July!

 In June 2015 we traveled with the whole Wyson clan to Puerto Rico for a family vacation. We had a whole little villa to ourselves right on the beach. The trip was filled with snorkeling, swimming, boogie boarding, site seeing, hiking in caves, and just hanging out.

The beach was just awesome.







 Everyone enjoyed site-seeing all around the island.






 


We all went down into the Rio Camuy Caves. The whole area was pretty amazing.





You can't go to a tropical island without going to see some waterfalls. We even did some swimming and a rope swing at the base of one waterfall. 





And here is a video of the highlights of the whole trip I put together.

The Monday after we got back from Puerto Rico, Natali was having some abdominal pains. She really didn't want to go into the hospital, but finally at 8:00 PM I convinced her to go. It was lucky we did, as her appendix was close to bursting. She was in surgery the next morning, and by about 8:00 AM the next day she was appendix-less.






Soon after we were scheduled to finally move into our new home. So we packed up the apartment (well mostly me as Natali was under strict orders from the Dr. not to lift anything) and said goodbye.


Natali was sad to say goodbye to her beautiful view of the city



But leaving the apartment meant a new beginning in a new home. Here is the first piece of furniture we put in the house.






One of our first purchases was a grill, and it just so happened that we moved into the house just in time for the 4th of July. Perfect timing to break in the new house with some grilling on the 4th of July.



And Natali had some fun (virgin) Margaritas too.


Here was the prep work before the grilling. In order to enjoy the outdoors, the mosquitos must be exterminated. Meet Reed, the mosquito exterminator, in the midst of the death fog.



It sure was nice being able to enjoy our very own backyard.




Then for the evening of the 4th of July we went to Lone Star Park and watched some horse races and fireworks.
