G - R - I - N - G - O

Aunque no hayamos encontrado la cancha que queriamos al menos encontramos esta !!! la nuestra... hahahahahha

Even though we didn't find the court that we wanted, at least we found this one!!! our own! hahahaha!

Y a pesar de las predicciones de que perderia en "G - R - I - N - G - O" ,el juego de Joel, haha logre el 2 lugar hahahah...me haces tanto reir...te amo hermoso....

And even though everyone predicted that I would lose in G - R - I - N - G - O (our version of P-I-G), Joel's game, haha, I got 2nd place... he makes me laugh.. I love the kid.

Joel and his crazy shots trying to win

Joel and my little brother, Rodrigo, playing a little one-on-one... hahahah...

Ustedes cuando?... and You Guys? When?

Miles de veces hemos escuchado la misma pregunta y aunque la respuesta es siempre "en un tiempo mas", no puedo negar que cada vez mas el deseo aumenta enormemente...que bendicion mas hermosa y perfecta es la de dar vida a seres tan especiales, hijos de nuestro Padre Celestial...que responsabilidad increible la de ayudarles a moldear sus vidas con amor a lo largo de este mundo...ya hemos cumplido tantos suenos, y el ver y poder vivir en su debido tiempo este ,el mas grande de todos ,me llena de felicidad y sin duda de mucha ansiedad hahahaha

Thousands of times we have heard the same question and the answer is always.. "in a while more", I can't deny that every time my desire grows even more... what a perfect beautiful blessing it is to be able to bring sons and daughters of our father in heaven into the world... what a great responsability it is to help them form their lives with love throughout their lives in this world. we have completed many dreams, but to see the to be able to live this in the right time, the greatest of all, fills me with happiness and without a doubt, makes me nervous/anxious... hahahaha

A nuestros hijos...los que aun no estan a nuestro lado...quiero que sepan que son nuestro mayor anhelo...y que el tiempo que aun no estan aqui lo aprovecharemos para prepararnos y ser mejores padres un dia...les amamos y los esperamos con amor y la esperanza de que podremos entrecharlos en nuestros brazos para siempre....

To our kids... those that still aren't with us.. I hope you know that your our greatest blessing, and that we will take advantage of the time that you are not here to prepare ourselves to be better parents one day.. we love you and wait for you with love and hope to be able to hold you in our arms forever...

Esta es la pequena Pilar, su familia y nosotros en su primer dia en casa.! Congradulations!

this is little Pilar, her family and us on Pilar's first day home! Congradulations!!!

Aunque no tenemos fotos de hoy, hoy fue el dia nacional del cine, y comoes obvio, alla estuvimos con mi chico celebrando nuestro dia hahaha, obvio somos el matrimonio mas fanatico de ir al cine asi que no podiamos perder este dia menos si la entrada solo costaba 1000 pesos. La pelicula mmmm no fue muy buena, debo admitirlo, pero estar junto a ti siempre es lo mejor de mi vida no importa el lugar, ni el momento, no importa nada...

Even though we don't have today's picture, today was the national theater day, and obviously we had to celebrate the day!!! haha... I think we are the biggest fans of going to the theater, so we couldn't miss today, when the entrance fee was only a dollar. the movie wasn't the best, but being together with him is always the best, doesn't matter where, nor when, nothing matters...

El sabado recien pasado fue un dia muy interesante...deportes, gritos, mucha energia y como no podia faltarnos una buena discucion por los premios...ahi estabamos los dos, hombro a hombro lchando por lo que creemos correcto...amo peliar toda nuestras batallas juntos hahaha y pucha que hemos tenido varias aqui hhhahha es que las personas a veces son tan complicadas, hahhaha pero fue un dia muy divertido, como no, si hasta Joel gano su primera increible medalla por ser el lider mas rapido de la estaca hahahhahaha...
Last Saturday was quite an interesting day... sports, yells, a lot of energy and of course, a good fight for the awards... there the two of us were, side by side, fightin for what we thought was right, and for the young men and women of our ward! I love fighting our fights together, hahaha, and man we've had our fair share here, hahaha, it's just that some people are so complicated sometimes, haha, but it was fun, and of course, Joel won his first medal, being the fastest runner out of the leaders in the Stake hahaha!

Compartimos mucho con los jovenes durante estas semanas y tambien con mis ninos de la primaria, amamos nuestros llamamientos y hemos aprendido mucho de ellos a traves del tiempo...Nuestro Padre Celestial es sabio y nos conoce tan bien que sabia que necesitariamos de estas personas para aprender todo lo que hemos podido de ellos y disfrutar cada momento juntos...
We shared a lot with the kids during these last few weeks, during the activity of the stake olympic games, and with the little kids of the primary. we love our callings, and we have learned a lot from the kids as time goes on. Our Father in Heaven is smart, and he knows us well, and knows what we need to learn from others, and has made thise fun times happen together.

these are the kids of the ward!

Joel running along side, supporting the kids to the end of their races!

Asi son nuestros dias...

Desde que conozco a este chico mis dias no han parado de estar lleno de distintas cosas por hacer...al principio era muy facil, solo tenia que estar todo el dia frente al computador haahaha pero ahora las cosas han cambiado un poco...cada dia por la noche me siento increiblemente cansada, pero es el cansancio mas perfecto de mi vida, porque me hace entender que aproveche el dia de la mejor manera posible a tu lado...es dificil seguir la energia de Joel pero vale la pena vivir la vida de esa manera...si realmente lo vale...


Since I know this kid my days haven't stopped being filled with things to do... in the beginning it was really easy, I just had to sit all day in front of the computer, hahaha, but now things have changed a bit... every night I feel incredibly tired, but this is the best tiredness I have felt in my life, because it makes me realize that I took advantage of the day the best I could have at your side, its hard to keep up with Joel's energy but its worth it living this way... it really is worth it...

Te pille con las manos en la masa!!!

caught red handed stealing cookie dough!!!

Imposible cocinar galletas con este chico al lado todo el tiempo, comiendo una y otra vez hahhaha de todos modos creo que eran mas ricas antes de ir al horno porque despues solo quedaron 5 galletas y el resto solo carbon!

It's impossible to cook cookies with this kid next to me the whole time, eating all the cookie dough, hahaha, anyway.. i think they were better before they went in the oven since afterword only 5 cookies survived.. the rest were cooked solid!
