Life in Grande

Tuesday, May 7th, 2013

Well, life has been busy for this family in the past couple of weeks, the busiest part being our move!  We recently moved into a casita in the heart of Playa Grande.  I am really enjoying it, and would love to share some pictures with you, but I have yet to find my camera charger [...]

Surfing at Pirate’s Bay

Saturday, April 20th, 2013

Matt got the opportunity to go with a group of friends to Pirate’s bay, and the lovely Kelsey took this photos of him surfing!  I can’t believe how awesome he is, because when we first came to Grande he had only been surfing once or twice. He is tearing it up! A hard days work!  He came [...]

A play-date and visiting a salt marsh!

Saturday, April 13th, 2013

Well, yesterday is what one would call a full day!  There was no school yesterday due to some sort of holiday (that I”m not sure what it is!) and so we had a fun play-date with Zach instead! First there was play-doh! And then hand made finger paints! The kids loved it!   After the [...]

Sleeping

Tuesday, April 9th, 2013

Well, needless to say it has been far too long since I wrote last and things have been surprisingly busy.  But rather than fill you in all at once I will simply share with you this picture today! I found them like this when I went to tell them dinner was ready! Ok, ok, maybe one more… [...]

Community Art Show in Playa Grande

This Thursday we had an art show in Playa Grande.  It was so much fun, and great to see all the art! Margo was very excited to find her art that she made in kid’s club. My table. (To see more check out my etsy shop!) Ya for art! I love how peaceful and relaxed [...]

Weekend at a glance

Thursday, March 21st, 2013

Sometimes time just seems to wiz by but I’m always thankful for… some beach snuggles, my little monster, a night out with the fam (even if this is what we come home to!  Bad Miggy!), and of course, some puppy love! What a great weekend (even though we are halfway through the week)! And check [...]

Man’s best friend and Recycling a Pineapple continuation…

Thursday, March 14th, 2013

Thelma, Miggy and I enjoying the morning (aka- trying to keep Thelma occupied while her big sister is at school!) Love those eyes! And I’m not referring to my creepy eyes that are focusing on aiming the camera in the right direction. Anyone remember a post I did on sprouting the top of my pinapple [...]

Simple and wonderful day

Wednesday, March 13th, 2013

Any day that begins with our friend dropping off limes and mangos from his trees is going to be a good day!  We already enjoyed some limeade, and I’m looking forward to some mango salsa tonight! After school Margo and I hit the beach, it was such a perfect (and hot) day. What do you see [...]

A new friend

Tuesday, March 12th, 2013

An uneventful day can become very interesting when your husband catches an iguana! He relaxed enough to munch on some papaya, and then he was off! And of course my (almost) daily visit with the puppies.  I just love them! For those of you who are wondering the farmer’s market was awesome,  I sold a [...]
