Grass Blowing in the Breeze

Grass rustles in the wind and the praise goes on.

7 Years...

Happy 7th Anniversary, My Love!

It's been an incomparable journey so far and we've only just begun...

The Hidden Benefits of Moving

One of the hidden benefits of moving is finding your old love letters! It was so good to re-read them and just cherish the special moments each one represented. Here are a few of my favorites:

"He loves you."

You see, even the printer knows I love you (Honey original).

If I were the sun, I would write little notes to you on all the leaves with golden ink and leave them everywhere for you to find.

Love doesn't make the world go round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

And my favorite...Nobody's grass is as green as ours.

Indeed...and nothing like a few love letters to bring blessings into perspective. I may not like moving...but at least I get to do it with the love of my life!

Look What I Won!

I'm the proud new owner of an Epson Artisan 800 printer thanks to Tsh over at Simple Mom. Check out the cool features of this amazing printer here and see why she has already given hers the pet name of "Fabulous Zipzorp".

I can't wait until it arrives at my doorstep so I can give her a whirl! Thanks so much, Tsh! This is DEFINITELY going with me when we move back to South America next summer.

Simple Mom's Motto is "Live Simply, Stay Sane. Life hacks for home managers." and she has so much practical advice. She also writes about life as a family of expats over at Better Things Ahead. Why don't ya head on over and check it out? I'm sure glad I did!
