School Day!

Claire is the dolphin!

Claire's class just finished their unit on creatures of the ocean and they always do a play after a unit to help solidify the information for the kids. Claire is the dolphin (which just happens to be one of the most intelligent animals.....coincidence? I think NOT)

Girl Scout Cookies the international troup way!

Olivia is in an international Girl Scout Troup and we had a bake sale to raise money for Haiti. We can't sell the "real" girl scout cookies because it cost too much to get them here.

Pictures of our "funnel cake breakfast". They were sooooo good!!

"The Lord is my Shepherd

I will not be in want."


I am teaching my girls right now, the meaning and importance of contentment.

We are learning it together.

it is not easy.

Beautiful sunny day with a light breeze.

Pizza lunch sitting at a patio table on Libertador watching traffic go by.


Blanket on the ground, drinking coffee and mate watching my girls play on the playground.


Swinging in "the spider" with my babies. (You HAVE to be a girl to know "the spider")

Fresh icecream (we have the best icecream in Buenos Aires) just delivered and munching down with my family.......

Priceless day.

Olivia's swim presentation

yea....ever had one of these days?

Thank you for ALL of the sweet calls, cards, ecards, and messages sent to Claire for her birthday! You guys are awesome friends and we appreciate you remembering our baby girl.

Good night!

So Mark is upset at me because I backed the car into the driveway gate.

.......yea.........go figure.


NO, as a matter of fact.....I didn't see it. I assume that on a motorized gate, when you push the button it opens ALL OF THE WAY and doesn't stop half way on the track.


HMMMMM....least I didn't get the car impounded.
