bye bye braces

The day finally came...I took off my braces Thursday. It feels so weird! but good! after wearing for 2 years I wondered if I was ever gonna take them off. my teeth look different, nicer I guess. I'm so happy!

happy belated b-day to me...I guess

Yes, it was my b-day last month on the 22nd, but I was downsouth visiting Miguels relatives, going down for Natalias b-day made me forget about mine. It didnt even feel like it was my b-day. My presents came earlier like my mom, which was a total surprise arranged by my beloved husband and his mom. well..time is ticking I never thought I would get to 25...

Stop GROWING!!!

My baby is now 1 year old! We had the opportunity to go have her b-day downsouth at her Grandparents city. where she had this mega party just for her, too bad she slept half of the party but boy did she have fun!The lord is so good to us, she got tons of presents and loads of kisses and love, below are the pictures, enjoy!

Tomorrow morning, going down south for a week for Natalias 1st birthday, her grandparents are throwing a party for her on the 20th. I;m very happy cause its always good to get away a little, but no so happy with the fact that is freezing cold right now...here is just so hot, feels like summer in Rio or Salvador.
alright...thats it for now, still have a lot of packing to do...gotta run...dont miss me too much ok?

BBQ at our neighbours

We have a farmer neighbour whom we get milk from and today he decided to make a barbecue for his friends and invited us, we took our little small band to play for them. also met a guy from Kenya, he's an english teacher here in Brazil and we talked tons, witnessed and they all promissed to come to our retreat by the end of the month. I rode with Miguel on a horse they had there, 1st time ever. kinda scary...but fun.
First time I left Natalia home, I almost cried! But I guess during C'mas time I'll end up getting used to it. sniff, sniff....

long lost brother

I always knew I had an older brother from my dads side... but all I knew about this older brother was that he had a band and he would live in the States. To everyones surprise he recently got in touch with my dad and he lives here in Brazil, Sao Paulo, and I was able to get in touch with him, a total miracle. And guess what...he is a musician. Love you Zeek, I'm glad I found you.
