Sunday Sunday...la la, lalalala!

We had such a wonderfully busy family day today.

We started off the day celebrating Hannah's 4th Birthday Party at the cutest little ice cream shop. The kids got to play for awhile and then had pizza, played some more and then got to make their own ice cream sundaes. The girls had a blast!

We then got into the car to head out to Manhattan for a party hosted by one of the Partners, Mark, that Ricardo works with. His place is beautiful. It's a 3 story brownstone on the Upper West Side with it's on roof top terrace. It was amazing. Seriously, the house is bigger than ours here in the burbs and the location is so prime!

The girls walked into this party like they owned the place and quickly got every grown man to play with them. It was pretty funny, and quite entertaining.

Ella passing out Barbies to Stefan, Janos, Weda, Gareth, and Mark (can you tell by the names that they are all here on international rotations?)

We left Mark's house around 4pm and stopped at a great park on Amsterdam and 77th. It was huge and had a great "spray" area. The girls were so hot-it was almost 90 degrees in The City today and we had packed a change of clothes so we decided to stop to let the girls run around a bit.

Sofia not fully grasping the concept of sliding DOWN a fireman's pole...

We then stopped for some dinner-which Sofia thoroughly enjoyed
before heading back home to the burbs for quick baths and bedtime.

Today was such a great end to the weekend. Perfect weather, perfect company, and a perfect time!
