Esfirras!

I so love to cook brazilian yummies to my family and friends and this was the first time I tried to make"esfirras". They turned out pretty good for my first time and I will keep improving them as I keep making them. We sure love having friends over and yummy food! :)

They arrived!

I went to get the mail couple days ago and there was the box weve been waiting for weeks. I picked up the kids from school and told them the special delivery was finally here. They were so excited to get it and are so excited to check the development of the caterpillars every day.

Sacrifice!!!

General Conferences always bring me peace, hope, love and of course tons of tears. One of the talks that was giving by Elder Holland really made me think of my sweet father and mother. He talked about how thankfull he was to parents like mine and yours that sacrifice for their children. As I was listening to his talk I sooo felt like running to the airport to get to 3 flights and after about 30 hours to hug my father and mother, to look in their eyes and say "Thank you, thank you for all the sacrifices you have done for me". My father is an Engineer and an inventor. He is my hero. He calls me his princess. He is the smartest man I know. Hes got the biggest heart and would do anything to help you. He is sweet and handsome. My mother is a super woman. She is beatiful. She loves music. She would do anything for her children. She loves the gospel. She is a pianno teacher and had her own bussinnes where she was amazing at it. She loves sweets and shopping. She makes every holiday magical. She would kick your butt if you talked bad about her children. These two together make the most wonderful parents I could ask for!!! I could tell you so many experiences where my father and mother sacrificed for me and my siblings. I dont remember one single summer growing up where we didnt have the best vacation ever! :) I also remember my father with his white papers and pencil sitting down at the beach house trying to work on his engineers inventions so he could assure he could be sucessfull and keep giving us those good vacations. I remember every weekend without fail going out for lunch at a nice restaurant as a family. I dont remember my parents ever going on vacations by themselves but with us. I remember my mother always there to get the homework done with us, to care, to love, to teach. I always had the best grades when it came to projetcs, papers and presentations due to my mom being always sooo creative and always putting so much effort in to everything. I remember my mom on saturday nights picking out and ironing all the childrens outfits for church along with socks and shoes that we would wear so sunday morning could be as lovely as it could be. I remember how my father would get nervous as the time of the month to pay private school for all of us got around but he made sure it always happened so his children could get the best education. I remember about me and my sister waiting at the aiport for my father with the treats theyve giving him in the airplane that he had saved for us. I remember their patience, love, dedication and struggle they had to raise all of us.Ive got some many other examples about how they sacrificed and still do. Thank you so much for all you have done and continue to do. I can assure you I do my best to follow your steps in sacrificing for my beatiful Bella and Jackson and will keep continue because of your example. I admire you two a lot and love you! I love you!!!

Happy boy!

Jackson was sooo excited for his first day of sports class. He loves every single sport and this class has a variety of sports. He did sooo good at basketball day and was sooo happy! Love seeing you so interested in sports, Jackson!
