People, places, moments and emotions

Celebrating Mother's day, we had the opportunity to take Sammy to his first horse back riding, I think I was more over the place them him.
It is the first time in along time that I feel in peace with myself , It is great. Life is about seasons and moments. When I look at our pics I have a different perspective about life and me, yes we are aging and changing, and it is good, aging is great.
I am 42 years old :) , and looking forward to more years of joy, exploring and loving God, receiving His unfailing Grace and never ending Love.
White hair.......... yes. Lines and marks ..... yes. More tenderness and affection ....yes.

Abundant life

Engaching, sharing time with family and friends.
We drove 3 days from here to Abby and we spent 4 days there, It could sound a bit LOUCO for some peole. For us the main point was to celebrate Jon's graduation, to be there , to see some fam and friends and come back.
Well we had planns to go to Langley, White rock or even Burnaby, we drove from Mission to Abby and vice-versa,
Dragon Fort Restaurant was visited twice :), yes we order number 2 without chow-mei hahahahahaha, :)

Jon's Grad

It was so precious to go back to BC and celebrate ur life here in Alberta, God protected us as we were driving all the way. When we left there was a preciptation caming our way (Snow) we missed that..... it was sunny warm, pleasant in BC ( NO RAIN) , we drove back and we had the most amazing weather change padron when we left Valemont , Sunny, raining, snowing and windy from Jasper to Edmonton........ incredible.

Family time

Baby Cecilia - so sweet :)

It was the first time that we had a Jacuzzi suite... it was fun, also a big screen tv and 2 big King size beds...... :) , thanks folks for the tip... also the warmest swimming pool, with hot tub and waterslides.... you go Best Western Valemont :)

Newness

We found a crocus, beautiful .... also cactus and amazing views

Sammy was sleeping as we are climbing up and down, amazing how a toddler can deeply sleep, he plays hard and sleeps hard :)

Trying the perfect shot, the wind was warm and welcoming, It was a piece of paradise over here, It reminded me Israel, yes Israel when you walk and It is windy and warm , amazing

Exploring with friends

Fam Time

People, places, flavour, the sound of a familiar voice ..... smell of dry land........ driving over the rolling hills of Alberta , crossing the mountains , observing and admiring God's creation
During our trip to BC we could see
a black bear ( Manning park/BC area) , deers everywhere,Mountain Sheep - Fernie & Jasper area
Canadian Ducks, Snow goose, gophers, foxes, eagles........ different locations

The cry of my heart is to praise God, for the save trip to celebrate Jon's Graduation, another milestone. Getting together with friends and fam and realizing that The best is yet to came, because our God has plans for each one of us....... Halleluia.

I am 42, yes it was my b-day too, I had never celebrated the same b-day so many time..... fun, we celebrated with fam, we had even a typical Brazilian churrasco at Orlando & Luciana's place with a double b-day celebration amazing , then another intimate b-day with Ron & Marlene Chinese food and fun, after that ice cream at Ray& Sam's

I will post more pics later, It is time for getting Sammy ready for bed
Blessing and JOY

new hairdo......... potatoes..........rocks ......... fun

new Hairdo.... I liked a looooooooooooooooootttt.....

last weekend we were talking about our rocks...... a friend of mine was touching, enjoying looking at, reflecting about how we took the time to see, select, explore and carry our rocks from BC to here....... I remember walking with Mike with pockets full of river rocks....
How beautiful the rocks are after a wash..... water and rocks....
and How God cares for each one of us, we are chosen by God, by His unfailing love.
He is searching us like a lover, the Lover of our soul.
It was so profound and deep,

Another amazing discovery for me this week... I had REAL POTATOES given to us.
Yes, real organic farm Canadian potatoes.............. they look real, dirt was around, they smells different..... It was kind of misty and wet like.... ok It smells like dirt , inside they were so beautiful and clear...... I prepared a corn chowder soup........." It is too good Mommy" ( Quoting Sammy boy words). Ok folks now life has a different standard..... spuds can be so creamy and taste and smells different. I grow up in the city, more specific Sao Paulo/Brazil, no it was not in the jungle.... no I didn't have a monkey as my pet...... and cement was my childhood backyard.....

It is wonderful to experience life..... even when you are holding a REAL POTATOES

"And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind...... and God saw that it was good. So evening and the morning were the Third day"

April 13 2009 so many changes

It is like looking at a familiar scene from a different perspective,

I was captive and now I am free

Today life is so full and alive.
5 years ago It was so different

Our baby Joshua was going home to spend eternity with our Savior and Lord,
"Blessed Assurance , Jesus us mine....."
I look around me today and I praise You, God,
You rewrote our story, you gave us a new Hope, you moved us away from BC and showed us that "You will never leave us ..."
"My chains are gone , I am set free, my Lord my Savior .." Amazing Grace song ....
My soul is moved , God is moving and changing ME

Abundant life WITH CHRIST
Abundant life IS CHRIST IN US

Look at this picture
Spring is here, snow still around, but the bbq area is available to be used and enjoyed, Sandbox is available to experience and explore.
Fellowship, Heavenly provision and JOY,
Sun is shining , bright and powerful.
I want more of God

Thanks for your Love for us and a NEW SONG inside my heart
Thanks for fellowship
