Check out my Slide Show!

We had a wonderful weekend.

We went on a trip to Tambor, and it was a big adventure. We started with an hour in a half drive from San Jose till we got to Puntarenas. We had to take a Ferry to take us from Puntarenas to the other side of the ocean were the resort we were staying is at, The resort is called Barcelo Tambor beach resort, all inclusive, all you can eat, all you can drink, tons of activities for the family, we tried archery, Kayacking, swiming, eating lots, drinking lots of fruity delicious non alcoholic cocktails. We sun bathed, we played in the ocean, we slept good.. it was fun! We will definetely do it again with our children. We got to see lots of new places. I have to backtrack a bit, in the Ferry we met this guy and he had found a place close to Montezuma, that we could stay for $80.00 per night. Well $80.00 beats the $350.00 we were going to pay at the resort, it was a bungalow with five beds right on the ocean... wow! we followed the guy to the place and the beach was rocky, no way our baby girl could play there, so off we went back to the resort.

Once back at the resort we had a great time here is the slide show for you to see.

Another great week...

Last week I tried golfing for the first time ever, I actually didn't mind it, it was good for me to get out and socialize with the girls. I came down with a cold and a UTI.. darn! I never get those, but my friend Susan who is a nurse back in the US told me exactly what to do, I went to the pharmacy and ask for this antibiotic that treats UTI and it only cost me $10.00, and today I feel good again, my cold is even gone. Yesterday we went to church and I received a calling as a teacher in the Primary organization, I'm so happy, finally have a calling at church, I have Kallie in my list, wild girl Kallie, who can't seat still for a minute, so that'll be fun, just when I was trying to get away from her, lol. Yesterday during Relief Society they had chocolate treats for all the sisters, she grabbed one and ran away, then a few minutes later she was back in the room asking for more... all this while a class was being held, she didn't care, she wanted more. At home she saw the quads playing outside and she ran outside on her diapers to play with them, she didn't care if she was naked, poor daddy, had to go out and chase after her. We hired a handyman to hang our pictures, and do they look nice! My house is so pretty! :) Alex skateboarded while we met some of the neighbors, my next door neighbor whose house will be done being built in June came by to introduce herself, her name is Patricia from Colombia, very nice lady.
What is it with Costa Rica woman and their big assets? Gosh, I'm even impressed with their beautiful breast.. going to the mall last Saturday was an experience now that they wear skimpy shirts for the summer, and they like to show them off, gosh they were blessed with a good top. My poor hubby and Alex, I feel so sorry for them and all they have to endure walking through the mall and just torturing their minds with all those views of big breast.. and to make it worse, they are not ugly, lol. Even I appreciate some natural beauty, natural??? did I say that? I guess I'll never know if they are real or not, lol. Some women here are just gorgeous, drop of dead gorgeous, but once you've seen one, you've seen them all, at least that's how I look at it. To make it worse, we go to church on Sunday, and this lady is breastfeeding her child during Sacrament meeting, what the heck?? I guess it wasn't the first time I've seen this, but during sacrament meeting, common, give me a break, now, that wasn't a pretty view, lol.
Kallie is getting potty trained today, man, she is three in a half and still wearing diapers, and has a binky.. waz up with that? She clinged like a monkey to her daddy this morning and didn't want to let go... she won't stay in her bed at night either, could it be the last child syndrome, where the parents let the kids get away with murder, which is easy to do because she is so darn cute.

January in a nut shell...

Wow! January came and went so darn fast... it was a very tense month for us since uncertainty ran our lives. Staying in Boise one week, going back to Costa Rica the next... every weekend in January we made a trip to United Airlines to change the date of our flight, each time costing as high as $100.00 per person... Finally we returned to Costa Rica and it was the right thing to do. Costa Rica is BEAUTIFUL this time of year... can we say PERFECT weather.. it's the most perfect weather I have ever experience, with the sun coming up early in the morning, staying bright and shining till 5 PM, no humidity since it doesn't rain anymore, light breeze and everything looks radiant and beautiful. Oh my gosh! I can not imagine not living here now. Even Brett keeps saying he loves it so much he would consider staying, and now I understand what he means. Family, the time to come to visit Costa Rica is definetly between January and August.... this country is beautiful!!! I have been enjoying the yummy fruit for breakfast every morning.. we have pineapple, bananas, papayas, and mangos everyday. Fot dinner eat the fresh produce and make lots of homemade salads, and I'm keeking my weight off.
OUR SHIPMENT ARRIVED!!! and everything was pretty much intact but one lamp, and that's incredible! The movers came and put everything together for us, including Kallie's Barbie jeep. SO nice to have htem do all the work. Our house feels and loooks a lot more like home since we have our things here now. I've been a busy bee lately... the girls and the neighbors keep me busy. We meet a new neighbor with cuadruplets, yes four kids, all born the same day, they are adorable and the are all three, same age as Kallie. Kallie was in heaven playing with them. We still had all of Kallies toys in the garage, and the played for a good two ours while the momies talked. The mom of the quads, is from Puerto Rico, and the dad from Peru. He works for Conair and they have a gorgeus home too.
I miss my Jake!!! we had to leave him behind at home since he was doing good attending Cenntennial high school. we'll see how long that will last, lol. Kallie want breakfast, I got to go and feed my baby, I will write more later.
