Anyways, We got this one to register the day:
Chirstmas was…
Fun!
- This is my favorite! I loved it! It’s all I wanted!
They REALLY enjoyed their present! I’m SO glad we got noah that Diego Riding thingy… he loves it!
X-mas eve was good. I feel like not everyone that was over here had a good time, but I won’t stress out about it! I did! So did Dan & the boys!
It was us, F+S - The Worleys, K+M , The Pascuals, J+B and Kip, Dani + Kids came later…
It was SO awesome to see Beth! We had too much to catch up… 3 am was early for us!
X-mas day we had a brunch at F’s house very low key.
The kids got waaaay more gifts then we expected – they LOVED it!
70% of the gifts they got on x-mas eve were from K+M so K helped Benjamin open his packages – Every gift he opened he said:
- This is my favorite! I loved it! It’s all I wanted!
Cute, hu? He said that for EVERY gift! lol

Brazilian X-mas Brunch
As you can see bellow my kids did NOT like Santa! (If they only knew it’s their uncle!)
We had a very good time and pretty good food too. We missed some people - Sm was in Fl and so forth… (is that right? so forth?)
Anyways…I don’t have time to write details but we all had a great time! =)

It’s not easy!
Mara’s dad passed away last week -so yesterday we went to Columbus to cry with our friend - Not just a visit it was healing all over the place. God filled her house with His angels; we had a blessed time with happiness, peace, answers to our questions, reconciliation and lots of love.
It’s had being almost 2 years since I saw/talked to her. So it was great. Half away of our visit we hear this beautiful music coming from the outside, we go check it was Daleth, Connie & Ze + another 2 families came to visit too. What a blessed time. The 2 families I met there were so much fun! =)
We all had a bunch of good laughs! Hopefully it was good to Mara too (Looked like it was!)
I can’t imagine how hard it is to loose a loving one. But as the brother said during the prayer – he was ready – he even said good bye to his animals! :~(

I was so “in heaven” that my 2-hour drive back home felt like a 15 minutes. The boys were so awesome and this will be just a trip to remember…

Our CrazyAboutTrains guy had SO MUCH fun with this project! It’s all he talks about the past couple of days!

The weekend
We had a lot of fun this past couple of days while we were out of town.
A road trip can sure bring a family together! Even thou it was a “business” trip we had a good time. The kids were amazing in the car and everything went smooth – All was good… I’m a pile of exhaustion; it looks like I got punched in the eye; tired as can be but I would do it all over again.
Saturday while we where driving thru Indy we stopped at the Cruz’s house – had some awesome food and the boys had a bunch of fun! I think we may be going out there for new years!
We had a chance to drive-thru doughnut shop; and the whole time after that Benjamin kept on asking for “Mc Donald’s with chocolate on top”
Today we went to Linda’s for a “baking day” and it was a blast! Besides putting on #s & #s with all the yummies I also had a great time with Ben, Noah & Monica. Linda got Benjamin a gingerbread “train” and he loved it! (Linda – send me the pictures when you have a chance please!)
When we got home he was so excited to show daddy. Their conversation went:
B “Look daddy – the train I did all by myself”
D “Oh Benjamin, it’s awesome – I’m so proud of you buddy.”
B “I’m so proud of you too daddy”

Me, Myself & Lilian
I’m just gonna have to accept the fact I’ll be overweight for now on!
Only 3 days not watching what I ate and I put in over 5#s – believe me or not! =(
My face is more broken out then the teenagers on my street and I’m getting full of “worry lines”.
BLAH!
I guess I need to “LET GO & HAVE FUN!”
It’s just *so* freaking hard 4 me to look in the mirror and feel like crap, ugly & very unattractive.!
T said my “insides” make me pretty - Mike T said it’s all about my “Inner Beauty”
* bullshit! *
That is ugly people talk!
I do believe in Inner Beauty -I’m just angry right now!
Angela has a great thinking and attitude about it – I wish I had just a tinny bit of it!
I have to change my attitude! It’s hard….
I talked to Dan about changing our relationship in 30 days – it’s being a week and so far we haven’t done anything, I’m loosing hope here…

APF & Ben’s Concert + things we are into to
Yesterday we went to see the Aussie Pink Floyd concert @ Taft Theater, it was insanely good! I was very impressed.
I post a few videos on my You Tube account. My camera is a piece of crap but still did a ok job – I wasn’t really concentrated on the camera – I was enjoying the show while recording so they are not good however it can give you a little taste of it! =)
Next year I want to go again!
And this is the Show Benjamin put up for us the other day – I forgot to post this video! Funny guy! He just waited their for applause! =) lol
The boys now love:
B - “Spider’s going up your back – spider’s going down your back…”
N - “Serra, Serra, Serrador…”
Dan is totally out FF – he is so upset! (I’m not! Lol)
And I? I love this Slim-Fast Optima Muffin Bar, I don’t do Slim fast diet or anything – I’m just a muffin maniac! Nutrition is not that great – lots of sugar, but better then a regular muffin! They have like a Blueberry, Banana Nut & Chocolate Chip
So this is the one thing I found to indulge in the mornings! Mmm with a spice pumpkin coffee! =)
