A list for Leslie’s mom
This is a list, but it’s not exhaustive or in any particular order. This is a list how my mom facilitated some of my all-time favorite memories (check back for Javier’s list tomorrow!). Esta es una lista, pero no es global y no tiene un orden en particular. Esta es una lista de como mi…

It’s growing season
The spring has brought many changes to our yard; fast growing grass, mysterious plants, beautiful flowers, rebellious weeds – there are so many living things that we tend to not pay attention to. Plants grow slowly but steadily and despite how slow they grow it is amazing how quick they get out of control. La…

working on that work / life balance
I mentally prepared myself all week to pass the weekend in a state of slight panic and under major stress trying to finish up the semester, but I was pleasantly surprised on Friday when I found myself 2 pages ahead of schedule on my final paper for one of my classes. SO, to celebrate minor…

4:00-6:00
Who else besides me divides the hours of weekdays into favorite / least favorite times of day? I can’t be the only one right? On the average day, when nothing extraordinary is going on, my favorite / least favorite hours of the day go like this: Quien mas aparte de mi divide las horas de…

Our Easter!
Our Easter day was awesome. It’s the closest I’ve come to a vacation all semester and the closest I’ll get to vacation again til June. I spent all day Saturday doing work for school so I could safely take the day off on Sunday. We took the doggos to the Dog Spot early in the morning…

Spring Cleaning!
My spring cleaning desperation got the best of me this weekend. Every spring my summer clothes start piling up on the floor, on furniture and on pretty much every surface where they don’t belong. The mountains of clothing start to materialize right around the same time that mountains of homework and assignments pile up. Since nobody is…

1 year in the Los Rodriguez Mansion
Javi and I have been in our lovely little house in South Inglewood, East Nashville for a year! We closed on the house last April 1 and moved in little by little over the next month. A week after we signed on the house Javi and I drove down to visit my aunt Jane and…

Happy Birthday Choripan!!
Yesterday was Choripan’s birthday! It was also national puppy day which is perfect because he was one of the two cutest puppies ever (the other being Chupete, obviously). Choripan was an unplanned puppy – his adoption story is a pretty good one. Last May, Chupete lost his tags while going crazy playing with some other…

Around the house
Since I posted about the signs of spring popping up all over our yard, we’ve had a variety of plants and flowers sprout and bloom everywhere. The woman who used to live in our house was an avid gardener and luckily for us she planted flowers that don’t need any upkeep or attention from us.…

It’s not an isolated incident
It’s been almost a month since Trayvon Martin was senselessly murdered in Florida, and it’s high time we said something about it on here. This blog is about our lives, and there’s something to be said about how Javier and I will never, in our lives, experience the kind of fear when it comes to our…

P90X Phase I complete!
Since posting this we also completed P90X Phase II as well! Check it out! Lately we’ve been super busy with school, work, working out and house stuff (nothing exciting – just cleaning, yard work, a couple of small repairs)…which is why our posts are fewer and farther between on the blog. We have had a…

Google+ Hangout Happy Hour
I signed up for google+ around the same time that we started this blog and at the time I really thought google+ would take off. Everyone was talking about it and how it was going to be this big challenge to Team Facebook…and then the hype was over and we all went back to hitting…

Just a good day
Sometimes, all I need is just one good day. Yesterday, Javi and I had a productive morning (woke up at 5AM!) and it was a beautiful day with pretty decent weather. I got to spend the morning reading in my office with the pups keeping me company on the couch. They were basically begging me…

Our gigantic pantry / doggo play room
So with the whole office transformation came a few hitches that we had to solve…like where on earth were we going to put two dressers, a mattress and box spring and a wing back chair and recliner. So we took stock of what we wanted to sell (…which only turned out to be the old…
