things I loved this past little while…

Monday, April 29th, 2013 in About Me

How I miss having a camera! I did catch a little bit of moments on my TAB…. When the girls went off to their first day of school I noticed something was really wrong with Shae. After a couple of hours of her acting really odd, Tyler took her to the doctor. He came back

My 30th Birthday

Friday, April 19th, 2013 in About Me

I am a real grown up. Time to change the name of this site to: I didn’t wanna, but I grew up. I had a rough few days leading up to my 30th birthday. I had a back injury years ago, a decade ago, that was pretty painful for me. My limited college days were

Shae’s 2nd Birthday

Thursday, April 18th, 2013 in About Me, Parties

Shae I think spent her second birthday not sure what was going on. Why she was wearing a crown, why she was getting all this extra attention, and why there suddenly was a party in her house. She didn’t seem confused by having cupcakes, that part seemed perfectly normal to her. Her morning started with

Costa Rica Family Pictures 2013

Wednesday, April 10th, 2013 in About Me

Family pictures included some catastrophes with hair, children being swept under a wave, not being able to fit into my dress (I wore a different one), and bruises healing just in time (ok that last one could be taken the wrong way, I was referring to Shae’s huge bump on her head). But it made for

Things I Loved This Past Month

Monday, April 8th, 2013 in About Me

(Note: obviously I now know that she is too big and wiggly to be in this alone and on a table in her bouncy chair) I love that…I love that I love her. That I love her when she screams, when she doesn’t sleep, when she won’t calm down. I am glad I have a

Night on the town with Abby

Sunday, April 7th, 2013 in About Me

Abby is my buddy when I want to go out at night to eat, walk the marina, do an errand, etc. Cameron is more of a homebody and just likes being there. So Abby will try the new food with me or be adventurous and go to a new place. When we go out I

Surf Lesson with Poppi

Sunday, April 7th, 2013 in About Me, Our Travels Worldwide

We were looking for something else for the girls to do and checking out surf instructors that give kid lessons. But then Tyler thought well hey why not I try to teach them first. The first lesson went really well. Abby got up at least four times and it made her ecstatic. Cameron got up

Easter Weekend

Saturday, April 6th, 2013 in About Me

I have been thinking for years about letting the bunny die in our house or slip away without notice (the later happened this year and very oddly smoothly). And who knows maybe next year he will be back. I know you all do a wonderful job of balancing Christ and Mr. Bunny. I do not.

146 days

Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013 in About Me

I have kept up on more of our travel logs and things going on in the kids lives. But I haven’t done an “update” post in awhile. People constantly are asking me how I really like it, how it really is going, so here you go: 146, I have lived in Costa Rica for 146 days.
