Can you say cankles????

My poor Cousin Stacey is about 8 months pregnant in the middle of June in Arizona!! Yeah, enough said right!! She is doing very well and I really never hear her complain but maybe that is because I don't really listen when she talks!!! J/K Stacey!! : )


All I know is that she is a real trooper because if my feet were this swollen all I would do is bitch about them every day!!
Way to stay positive Stacey!! Hopefully after Manni is born you will get your ankles back!! : )

A Black & White Affair

Today was Stacey's baby shower. Her sister Alyssa threw the shower and it really was beautiful. She had the theme as black and white which made the whole thing kind of fun.
We all had to dress in black and white and everything was decorated in black and white.
However, the best part of the theme was the YUMMY black and white cookies that Alyssa bought as party favors!! Check out the setting below.......
The shower was a lot of fun and Stacey and Manni got some awesome stuff. If you want to know more about the shower you can check out Stacey's blog. I just wanted to give a shout out to Alyssa for throwing some of the best baby showers that I have been too!! Way to go!! Little Manni is very lucky to have such an AWESOME Aunt!!

Costa Rica


Sorry for the delay in my updates but I haven't been out and about too much so I don't have tons to show you guys but here are a few photos I have been able to take around the hotel area and downtown. 
It's so pretty and green!!  I love it!! 

The view from ourside my door. 

Lots of plants and flowers



When I went dowtown I was advised to ONLY take a taxi that is red with yellow triangles on it.  There are several other people driving around acting like they are taxi drivers but they aren't.  My lesson in safety!!

A very famous Catholic church located in downtown San Jose

I always try to find a McDonalds where ever I go!!  Look this one had chicken legs as a menu item!

The famous National Theater located in Downtown San Jose

The oldest hotel in Costa Rica
A very small view of Intel.  I was hidding under the canopy from the rain so I couldn't get the whole thing.  I think there are a total of like 4 buildings and this huge cafe that they built that has like a Burger King and Subway inside it so people don't have to leave for lunch. 

The rest are from around the hotel.  They have the most AMAZING looking trees here!!















I'm planning to go out tonight to a place called Tierra Tica Ram Luna Viewpoint.  It's located in the Central Valley mountains.  They offer a traditional Costa Rican dinner and then they put on a show with a traditional masquerade with typical dances and famous marimba music.  I figured since I have to work all day I have to find things to do in the evening so I'm hoping this is fun and entertaining!!  I will keep you all updated!!
