Fun in the Sun for Memmorial Day.

Summer is here and we are so excited about it.
On Monday, Memorial day, we took the kids to the pool and treated them to a nice buffet lunch at Golden Corral to celebrate that they've done so good in this school year and we are so very proud of them for working so hard, it was nice to have a family day and just enjoy the sun and the water. Leire was like a little fish that had discover the ocean for the first time..she loved it.

Mobile Home Adventures

Lifes turns are a funny thing.
To think that one and half years ago I didn't know what a mobile home was seams funny now that I've learned so very much about them.
It's been an interesting ride.
If all goes well by January we will have bought our very own first home. It's whats called a manufactured home and it's got 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. It's been an investment of time and lots of work to say the least, but it definitely beats renting if you can go without the comfort of a nice set up for a few months with the reward that in the end you have your own four walls to call home.
When we first moved in it was in quite bad shape and needed a lot of tender loving care but slowly it's looking a lot better. I'll have to dig up some pictures so I can do a before and after post.
I felt inspired about writing this when it dawn on me that in our first year in the US we've managed to pay off pretty much all of our debts and in the second year, which is only half way, we will have finished paying off our first home. I know it's not anything huge or fancy and most definitely not my forever home but it's a start. It's something.
Every queen want a palace and I'm no exception:-) I want the palace, the jewels and...ohh,... the shoes.
They say it's not where you start but where you finish... so dream big girls:-)
and in the process learn lots of cool new things.
Till next time.
