Lizzy's 30th Bday

My friend Lizzy turned 30 and for this milestone birthday she decided to celebrate the last weekend of her 20's at the Keys. So a good number of friends got together to celebrate this joyous occasion. The drive down was no fun (Thanks Bridget for driving! ;)), but once we got there it was very worth it!. I was very happy to be able to celebrate this occasion, see some good friends and also I was able to see my lovely parents. They drove down for the night and I got to hug my beautiful mommy. The only sad part was that Petey was not able to make it, but I took some good pictures to capture the moment. The weekend was full of good and unforgettable moments. We went bike riding through key west ..... yes you heard right, I drove a bike through streets. I was actually glad Peter was not there at that moment because he would of made me wear knee pads and a helmet. I played it cool and did not fall on my face... I was very proud of my bike riding skills. For those of you who do not know, I am the worst bicycle driving!!! We ate key lime pie, went sun bathing, went to the southern most point in the USA, had a brief encounter with the meanest and most unhappy bachlorette EVER, went to very interesting bars (the one that stands out the most was the naked bar), and no we did not get naked (it was clothing optional!) I almost got Matt (recall our topless brunch friend mentioned in previous blogs) kicked out because I asked him to take a picture of us while in the naked bar, apparently I missed the million signs saying "NO PICTURES ALLOWED"! (oops!!!). The weekend went by so fast, but it was great to celebrate the birth of one of my great friends! Cheers to you Lizzy! Please enjoy some of the pics from the weekend.

Moral of the story: Please read the signs when you enter a bar that IDs you 3 times before letting you in!

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...
