Our January

It’s been awhile since I’ve put together a random blog entry but there are things that are going on in my life that I thought I would share and really I have to keep reminding myself, as much as I like all of you stopping by this is mostly a history book for the kiddos. [...]

Day II – They Don’t Miss Me!

I’ve always been afraid of the dark. Even as I’ve gotten older I’ve continued to sprint down the hallway, flicking on the light switches as I dart by them. And now I’m left home alone for 30 days, that doesn’t make getting to sleep easy. So I use the TV as my sleeping pill. Which [...]

I love Brazil. The people, the smell, the weather, everything. I don’t know what it is but I love it. I guess I do know what it is. Its home away from home. It takes us a whole minute to adjust to everything before we feel like we’re home again. Too bad we have to [...]

Allelujah! We finally made it. It’s been over 48 hours since we left Seattle for Brazil but after a slight delay (like 12 hours) and a long late-night drive from the airport – in the fog, we have finally made it to Lis’ parent’s house. Thanks United! The first flight fromSeattletoChicagowent well. Really good actually. [...]

No Goal! – July 1, 2006

My goal of watching Brazil play in the World Cup final while on vacation in Brazil disappeared today when Brazil failed to score a goal against France in their quarterfinals match. In a rematch of the 1998 finals, France defeated Brazil 1-0 advancing to the semifinals against Portugal, winners over England earlier in the day. [...]
