A bilingual blog for a binational family.
I cannot believe this wedding is finally (almost) here! Nikita and I were roommates sophomore through senior year of college. She and Jordan started dating a few months before Javi and I did, and she knew from the start that she wanted to marry him! They got engaged last summer and now the wedding is […]
Well, I’m pretty sure I’m all traveled out for the month of April! Javier and I just returned with my parents from a long drive home from Destin, where my cousin Andrew married his lovely new wife Camala. My parents and I drove down to Destin on Wednesday, stopping overnight in Birmingham and arriving in […]
I’m going to need the person out there working on time travel to hurry it on up. I know there’s someone out there working on it – just like there’s surely someone working on teleportation, telepathy, maybe a dog bark-to-English translator like in the movie “Up”. But really, let’s step on the gas with that […]
It’s Danielle’s wedding week!!! I feel like I’ve been waiting for this wedding for almost a decade! As soon as Danielle and Chris started dating back in 2004, everyone knew that that was it for those two. They make such a great couple and Chris immediately fell in with our group of friends like he […]
It’s my parents’ 35th anniversary!! My parents are HUGE UofL basketball fans and decided to celebrate their anniversary with a drive down to Memphis to see UofL play Memphis. Sounds like the perfect way to celebrate – here’s a photo that my dad posted on facebook last night with the caption “35th anniversary is paper, […]
Sometimes, it’s best to just find things to celebrate to a) not feel guilty about having some fun (you’re celebrating something! It must be legitimate!) and b) to force yourself to enjoy a day, or even a few hours, off. Over the last few days, we’ve found some things to celebrate. Javier had a long […]
Part two of our wedding weekend starts on Saturday morning after Ellen’s wedding. We rode with my parents down to Birmingham, Alabama for our friend Jennifer Faulkner’s wedding. My brother and I grew up visiting the Faulkners in Birmingham whenever we’d go down to see my grandparents in Alabama. My dad spent part of his […]
Javier and I spent this weekend in major party mode. I think I wore half of the dresses in my closet this weekend with all the fun wedding festivities going on! On Friday and Saturday night we attended two amazing weddings – one in Nashville and the other in Birmingham. This post is part 1 […]
Back in January I posted about my incredible study abroad experience in Santiago de Compostela in 2006. Aside from that one 6-month trip I’ve been back to Santiago de Compostela twice – once for two months in the summer of 2007 to visit friends and do the Camino for my senior thesis and again in […]
Dec. 26 was our second second anniversary, but we only celebrate the 12/12 anniversary. Javier and I hopped on a plane to Chile two days after our first wedding to head down to prepare for Christmas there and our second wedding the day after Christmas. My mom, dad and brother also came down, which was […]
