Day four - chairs!

Today was some new fun things. First we got chairs for the balcony!! What a relief we can actually sit down on something!! So that was amazing. I went for a short walk to the store to get some veggies for some meals and that walk was too short! I wanted to stay outside forever. So what did I do? I went and tried out the pool. So nice and warm and sun was just ahhh(: haha while I was there I found my friend Oscar:


This is Oscar(: well actually there's a million of these things everywhere. They have these red necks that flare out, it's super cool. 

Something I've noticed here is that everyone talks on their Bluetooth thing in their ear. No one holds up their phone to speak! I always think they're talking to me and most the time it's in Spanish. Talk about confusing haha

Sash came home after a hard day and we made quesadillas while we watched food network. Life is good!

Day three, another day in the life

Well day three started great! We got our air conditioning fixed so it's nice and cool in our apartment now. I also went to the dollar store and checked stuff out for fun and look what I found there haha 



A holy bible and roses with Saint Mary on them!! At the dollar store! Haha there are very many Hispanic people here needless to say. They even have to have bilingual wards which are majority only Spanish speakers, no English. You can imagine how hard it is to sell! 

Anyways, after that fun adventure, the comcast guy came and we actually got internet! Can you believe it! Now I get netflix and Pinterest and all the goods. 

Sash had a hard, long day selling but no sales :/ he's such a hard worker, I love him for that!

Day two: kindness

What a day of day two...we all got up and the boys worked out as I made them breakfast before their morning meeting/training. Breakfast consisted of dry fried eggs and broiled bread ("toast"). The boys were kind...haha I wished them luck on their way out the door wishing they could stay...

Meanwhile, I spent the day grocery shopping, reading and preparing dinner. Luckily there's a Winn-Dixie right across the street! I walked over there with my backpack thinking I could fill it then carry a bag or two home. It didn't turn out that way! I filled my backpack and had 7 other bags... Including a gallon of milk, eggs and bread. On my way back my fingers and shoulders were killing me! There was a group of three construction guys pounding concrete and they would throw pieces in a shopping cart. They saw me struggling across the street and they started unloading their cart so I could use it to my apartment. How nice! Such kindness...

Lastly, I finished my book:


It was so good!! It was about a boy with craniofacial anomalies and how he gets through his first year of middle school. It's so touching! 

Well Sash got home and he told about his day. He drove around for 6 hours and no one would talk to him! He told himself he wouldn't eat lunch until he got in the door and by four o'clock he just needed to eat...he stopped by Taco Bell and of course lost his phone there. But after he went back and got it, he made a sale!!(: I couldn't be prouder of my hubby selling four sets his first day!!(: 

Day One of Miami

Well we got to the apartment and it's just so cute, perfect and unfurnished..we're sleeping on the floor! There's such fun greenery around it's fun! Here's the view from our tiny kitchen window! 


It's just so fun...so we got here and we don't have food and it's hot and there's all this checking in stuff we have to do so we're tired and ornery...so we went to lunch! We found this awesome little hole in the wall Mexican fast foodish place and I must say. Delicious!! They had a salsa bar and free chips and yumminess!! After that the boys went out to start working and sash actually got the cops called on him. After he got home at 10:30, we went to walmart and got some necessities and went to bed! What a first day. 

Travel of a Lifetime

We had such a beautiful ride across Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Alabama and all through Florida!! Just look at this view in Louisiana! 


They have these roads that are just loaded with luscious trees on either side and a huge open sky, billowing with clouds! We went over several long bridges with gorgeous slow moving water. Just look! 


Sorry that's mostly road but just look at it!! I love it, if you couldn't tell...haha the edge of the water is filled with trees that are bare all the way up and then poofy on top, just full of leaves. I love it here!
