Being back in the states with my family has been wonderful! I love it, I love it, I love it.
I love being able to speak with people and have them understand me!! I love being able to understand people...well, most people that is. Some of these real southern people are hard to understand!! However, sometimes I think some of the younger grandkids are speaking Japanese!!
The weather has even tried to stay warmer longer...just for me, I'm sure! However, the cold weather does come with this time of year and I must adjust. I heat up the 3 cherry pit bags nice & hot then put them under the blankets before I go to bed. Life is good when my feet and hands are warm on cold nights! And Mason doesn't even seem to mind too much that Grandma is snoring away in the bed next to him!!
I do miss some things about Costa Rica...my husband, my favorite neighbors-Franz and Marianne, my cat, the fresh (cheap) fruits, etc, etc.
I don't, however, miss the scorpions!
Here are a few pics of happenings in Sept and Oct.
Mary-Carmen and Caleb were both worn out from the trip home from the hospital.
Family photo of Mary-Carmen, Tyson, Courtney and Caleb.
Baby Caleb looked so cute in the outfit I made for him.
Rose-Marie and Mason sleeping on the trip back from Florida when we visited
Tia Ana and Tia Jill.
Mason LOVED the train!
My car. It is a 1997 and has 75,000 miles. This is the first time in my life that I have had a car with only MY name on it! Did I hear someone say ROAD TRIP???

Mason was a scarecrow for Halloween. Rose-Marie was Pippy Longstocking. When Mason got his first candy he wanted to stop and eat it. It took him a few minutes to understand the more he said Trick or treat the more candy he got!
I made Mason's hat and the 'straw' coming out his arms and legs. Rose-Marie had 3 piece of heavy wire braided in her hair to keep it flipped up.
Ana-Christine and Abinadi put the twins in silver painted boxes and they had instant robots! Great job Abinadi!! Miss Logan was a beautiful witch and little Eli was dressed as a baby!!

I saw "Mom" on my blog reader and I was like, "hum, I wonder who that is" It's been SO LONG since you posted! I love it! All the pictures are great! I'm so glad that you are here and that things are good! I love you Mommy! P.S. Eli was a "blue spot" can't you see it on his head? LOL. I came up with that one last minute! :)
