USF from far away and some more.

















A few things to catch you guys up with our life, We are being very responsible and trying to save some money in order to be able to travel to a few of our much desired destinations next year. Therefore, we have been staying home most weekends. Peter is also working a second job on the weekends. He found a way to get paid for doing something he loves...SOCCER! He is refereeing for soccer games played on the weekends. I was a very mean wife and on his first day of work told him it was Halloween at the Mennite's household :) I took pictures so that all of you could enjoy, We also had our second IRON Chef battle with the Marquis. This time the secret ingredient was peaches/nectarines, Again, we probably tied but I was able to capture a few pics of the dishes we made. As I was uploading the pics, I realized we didn't take pics of us during the battle! I am very confident that for the third Iron chef battle with them, we will achieve victory!!!! So Amanda and Tony.....watch out!!! :) We also grill out and experiment ALOT with food, we are becoming quite the chefs here! Good preparation for when we get together with our family and friends. We have been able to enjoy all of our new "stuff" that we got for our wedding! Please enjoy pics of Peter, Monica, Monopoly and Jaxon's weekends tailgatting, grilling, fantasy football, battle iron chef with the Marquis' and just staying home!

Moral of the Story: If we cook for you, you will love it because we are getting very good!

A broom and the salt bottle

So we finally moved this weekend! How is it that we still have so much crap??? The move is really what inspired this blog story. I've been with Monica for some years now and during those years, we have had MANY moves, so I still don't now how Monica's superstitious "Colombian" beliefs still amuse me! According to Monica's family, when one moves, they leave behind the old broom and the bottle of salt. The reason is because you leave the bad luck from the old home (symbolized by the broom and salt bottle) and you buy new ones representing the good luck that will come in the new home. The funny part is that I can probably write a book regarding Monica and her family's superstitions (spiders, flies, pearls, dolls, glass breaking, the list goes on and on, but those other stories will be for future blogs). For now let's focus on the broom and the salt. It was our first night in the new place, monIca and I decided to grill out in celebration for a ha...

An apple a day ....

So for those who actually come here and get updates about our crazy life I must start this blog by apologizing for the lack of stories. It is all Pete's fault!!! If he had not convinced me into buying an awful apple computer, there would be a phethera of stories posted but the awful computer first started acting slow and I do not have much patience so after waiting for what I consider an acceptable amount of time without success I would become frustrated and walk away. This happened several times and the result was me giving peter a dissertation (and a hard time) about the whole awful computer! So time passed by and finally the awful computer decided to prolong my misery and stop functioning entirely which left me with access to the web only via my iPhone. Blogging on the iPhone is no fun and The awful computer Is still nonfunctional laying On The floor somewhere out Of my sight in The guest bedroom! So in summary no blogs all because Of Pete and his charasmatic persuasión abilit...
