Noche de Familia...Jardineando










Para la Noche de Hogar de hoydecidimos desmalezar y plantar nuestro huerto. Plantamos tomates, pimentones verdes y rojos, pepinos y sandias. Lo pasamos super bien a pesar que las dos "gringuitas" mas jugaron que ayudaron...llegaron pa la pura foto no mas!, durante y despues se dedicaron a puro jugar y molestar. Mientras que nuestro hijo menor, Jack ( nuestro perro)se dedico a "mearnos las plantas" jajaja...eso me salio bien chilenazo!. Lo mas entretenido de plantar es que es algo en familia a pesar que las ninas juegan a nuestro lado y no son muy hacendosas las cabritas...jaja... disfrutamos ene el tiempo que podemos pasar juntos. Para ellas todo es juego y pasarlo bien. Para Kyle y para mi es rico solo verlas jugar y no pelear por unos minutos. aqui van las fotos.

Mimi's Singing performance at school





It was the same day of Kayla's Field Trip. I was so tired and got to the school a little bit late...so Mimi was sad. She cried  the whole way home complaining that I didn't get there on time...She practiced her favorite song over and over the whole week just for me to see her and I missed it!!! I felt bad.  I was so sorry but we got cought in traffic and couldn't do too much about it... she forgave me...thank Heavens!

Field Trip...Paseo de Curso













Kayla had her "Paseo de Curso" to the Zoo last week. I was one of the Mamas ayudantes (chaperon). I had 5 kids with me. We had such a great time!. They saw everything they wanted and at the end we were dead! My feet hurt like crazy! I was so happy that it was hot but instead we had a nice breeze. This week I had Mimi's field trip to the museum and both girls end of the year parties...fiesta de fin de ano de las dos ninas. As you know I have been driving back and forth between Provo and Lehi for school. The girls didn't want to move for just the last 2 final week of school... I understood that so we let them finish the year with all their friend and decided not to change them from school until next year...well...it has been really tireing for me specially when I haven't feel so good lately oh well ...just 4 more days and we will be done!.

Soooo much going on!!!

The last few months have been really busy!...10,000 things going on!!!. first ...Kyle got the job he was looking for, yeah!...BUT...just one "but".....he didn't passed the BAR...so here we are sad and kind of lost. ...he is taking it on July again...the good thing is that in his new job they told him he could stay until he passed the bar and then he will get the job as a lawyer there. We have been really blessed he got the job he wanted and he loves it!!!. Its Inmigration Law... At least we don't have to worry about finding a job for a while...because his boss told him not to worry because he has his place secure in there. Hopefully he will pass the Bar Test next time.
That was what going on in our lives in the month of April and May..then we went to a deserved vacations to Disney!!!...Oh My Gosh!!!...we had such a nice time together as a family. It was the best time of the year for us ...no schedule and no worries...at least for a week!. The girls loved it!!! They were able to meet all the Disney Princesses, Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Goofy and many more!...The hotel was right across the street from Disney Park so we were even able to go after lunch for a little nap or a splash in the pool. The weather was great!. The best part for me and the girls was been able to go to the beach!!!!...the smell of the Ocean made me think about Chile, ...I got a little bit nostalgic. I sat on the shore and just close my eyes and think about my beautiful Chile while listening to the waves. It was a beautiful feeling ...how many memories came to my mind!...SUPER LINDO!.
Well ...then we came back and reality struck us...the next day of coming home from our vacation we were moving to Lehi. We found a great house, its much closer to Kyle's work. The wonderful thing for us is that its just around the corner from The Smalleys, our friends from Harrisburg PA. The girls are so happy about that!. The neighborhood is great and we live right by the bishop in a culd-desac street. I will post pictures of the house when we plant some flowers and clear-up all our boxes. Then after moving ...my minivan died!...so I got to get a new car so I went to a dealer and bug the guys so much that I had to promised him that I will never come back to bug him again not even in the eternities..He just laughed...but at the end I ended up with a 2008 car, paying it as a 2005 car, with 5 years of warranty and just 14.000 miles. great deal ,uh?. I will post a picture soon too....I'm just trying to get done with the writing first then the pictures..OH! we went to Carolyn's house to visit we had so much fun with them. Their house is beautiful. And Panaca is....Panaca. Not too much to say about it.  Mimi and Kayla loved to play in the cathedral place with their cousins and Mat was so happy that he got even with Elijah because I kissed him too and now he (Matt) was going to be able to tease Elijah too.
I'm so tired of all the changes but all of them had been good changes so I'm not gonna complain about been tired. God has been really good with us and the best blessing is that my dad is listening to the missionaries...hope he gets what he is looking for. I know that it is the truth but I'm praying for him to feel it too!.
Mothers Day was great! My girls gave a great present they didn't fight one bit for the whole day!!! and they made 2 beautiful cards for me. Kyle was wonderful as always and helped me around the house with everything and brought me a delicious breakfast in bed!!!...I love my family !...Love my life!


That's all...I think. If I remember something else that maybe I forgot I will posted later.
Love to all and thanks to Julie for helping me with my girls on the moving day!.

Disneyland... When you Wish Upon a Star...



















































































































































We were so excited to start the day. We got up, had breakfast and out we went!. We did everything the girls wanted to do today. We went in every single ride they wanted. We cashed the extra money from Nicole's tickets for food coupons. It was perfect!. The first day was amazingly exciting for all of us... This was my first time in Disneyland too. I was so happy to see my girls eyes getting way opened every time they saw one of the Disney's movie caracters. We walked and walked and have tons of fun. Dominique and Kayla were so happy. They wanted to see everything. We had lunch at  Disney and then kept having fun. We went back to the hotel for a break and the girls wanted to get in the pool with daddy...that sounded great for me who wanted to have a little nap. I was driving the whole trip so I needed it!.
We went back to Disney for dinner...yep! right across the street, we couldn't ask for a better location for our hotel. We had dinner and then, more fun. We went in the Indiana Jones ride and the Jungle boat trip. My favorite ride was Peter Pan ride,it was really cool!.
We did so much that I can even remember all. The only thing i do remember is the feeling of happiness we all had!...no schedule, no whining, no fight just love...like the Disney movie song...Lion King..."can you feel the love tonight?". We did whatever we wanted at the moment, we totally forgot about everything else at home!...we were having the time of our life down there!.
The first day we went to the beach. The girls have not seen the ocean since our trip to Chile and when we got there oh my gosh!!!...they couldn't stop smiling!...I was taking pictures like crazy I wanted to kept those moments forever, specially my girls eyes and happiness! ..and I did!
The first day we went back to the hotel right before they close the Disneyland Park. We were totally out at that point!...so heads on pillows and Zzzzzzzzz.
Then our 2nd day. The first thing we did was taking the train to where all the Princesses were. "The Disney Princess Fantasy Faire". It was a long line waiting for all the Princess characters to meet them. Dominique and Kayla wanted to meet their favorite too. Mimi's favorite was Belle and Kayla's was Snow White. Belle wasn't there at the moment it was our turn but Mimi didn't care she was so excited anyway with all the other ones she didn't care to miss Belle at all.
We then headed to My favorite place of the whole thing, Mickey's ToonTown. The girls and me had so much fun here!...where we went inside Minnie's Cute House. We were so lucky that she was there to meet everybody so we took some pictures with her. She was so cute and nice!...The girls couldn't take their eyes away from Minnie!. Then we went to see Mickey's farm House. Everything was so colorful and fun to see and touch!. Mickey's car was so cool, the girls went on it, and of course I took more pictures!. Then Goofy's place. He was Funny and nice we...the whole family took a picture with Goofy. he is one of my favorite's characters from Disney. The other place that was fun was the Roger Rabbit ride..it was "crazy" but fun. kyle really wanted for us to go in the "It's a Wonderful World" ride. The girls really like it. It was so colorful and happy. They have music from all over the world and mini people dressed p from different countries. They have color everywhere and it fun to look.
We meet Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto, Goofy, Alice in the Wonderland and his friend...whoever the guy's name was from the movie,(I can' remember)... Belle, Snow White, Ariel and many more!. We had lunch at Disney again. We decided to go the whole afternoon to the beach with the girls and enjoy the wonderful weather. Then in the evening we went to have fun again and be part of the "street Party" at Disney...it a huge party they do in the Disney Main Street with dancers, music and all the characters. It was so crowded but it was so worth it to wait!. We had a blast and the girls were so so happy....dancing, singing and just looking the whole show was amazing!. As a mom I was able to feel my girls's happiness. I'm so glad we were able to go as a family and have the wonderful time we had!..We will never forget this trip...not just because it was Disney but because we had so much fun and were so happy together!
We went back home the next day really early in the morning and got home at 7pm.
We went back to our JACKIE!...we missed him so bad...but I'm glad he didn't go with us this time.
The next day...moving day!!!
