This weekend, our family has the joy of celebrating a "super sister-cousins baptismal weekend". Tomorrow, Ate Raisl's daughter, Abigail Rose, will be baptized in Concord, CA; on Sunday, Theresa's daughter, Penelope Rosario, will be baptized in Brooklyn, New York.
Carla and I have the honor of being godmothers to Abigail, while Cyn Cyn was honored to be chosen as a godmother to Penelope. We decided to have Cyn Cyn make the weekend trip to New York. I am certain that Cindy and Zoe, our sister-cousins in heaven, had a hand in ensuring that family members could attend both baptisms.
Cyn Cyn travelled with Leland on Thursday. The arrangements for their flights and the trip itself both went incredibly smoothly. Although a good amount of luck and timing was involved, I know that Cindy and Zoe were watching over them - and all our family members - as they travelled.
We're thrilled to have Abigail and Penelope continue to expand our family, and are excited to have them continue our heartwarming sister-cousins family tradition.

thoughts of eggs in her ear
shared by Marlo R. Beall, her sister
For Christmas, Arlene gave the girls a few adorable Scump items, including a coin purse, key holder, ring, key chain, magnet and lanyard. For those unfamiliar with Scrump, she's Lilo's homemade doll from the movie Lilo and Stitch.
Cindy had a Scump doll that is one of our most cherished possessions, included in the photo below, and described in this previous post. It's so sweet to see the girls have an affection for Scump as well, knowing and feeling that it's yet another connection to their Tita Cyn.

thoughts of making a wish
shared by Marlo R. Beall, her sister
Happy new year! The holidays are always bittersweet, enjoying time with family, but also missing Cindy and other dearly departed loved ones.
As mentioned in the previous post, we were happy to share in a cousins' gathering for Cindy's birthday. There were around 20-25 us in our little house and we all sang "Happy Birthday Cindy!" while the kids blew out the candles.
Just wanted to share another photo, this time of the candles. Photo credit to my cousin Adam who was visiting from the Philippines.
