Before and After

Well... I figured that I needed something to occupy my time and thoughts while Nacho was in Chile. So I got the great idea to SuRprIsE him when he got back. Here is what I mean.



BEFORE and AFTER




Yep, that's right.... I went from being a Dark Brunette, to Blonde!!!!!

I thought Nacho would not notice me at all, I had on a new dress, blonde hair, my toes and nails done and the camera right in front of my face...... and guess what..... he saw me from the top of the stairs. Here is the clip.






Here is my adventure in getting there. Thanks to my fantastic cousin who helped me in my journey!

Appointment #1


My eyes were slightly on he puffy side since Nacho had just taken off on the plan 2 hours prior to this appointment. Yes, I cried like a baby.

flying


Nacho's brother Alvaro loves to skydive, probably as much as Nacho loves to Ski. So he bought a plane so that they could skydive at a moments notice. In these pics they are having a barbaque with family and friends and then took the plane up to JuMp.


While the men play the girls stay....to cook!

Mayday, Mayday..... there is a mad man at the wheel!!!!!

What a great place to take a nap
Hang on, we're taking off

H O L A....I ' M B A C K

Nacho surprised his family by secretly flying to Chile to spend some much needed time with them. He truly was so excited to see his family. He loves them all so much and misses them dearly. While his wife misses him like crazy, she is so very happy for him to be able to have these special moments with his family.

S U R P R I S E !

Wahoo!!! Nacho just SURPRISED his family. He left yesterday on a plane to CHILE... I am so excited for him to be able to see his family. I wish so much that I could have gone to be a part of the surprise. I have to say next time I am not staying home. Here are a few of the pictures of him leaving here. I only got two at the airport that turned out well. The others were blurry... I have learned you can't have tears and take pictures very well at the same time. I love you Mi Amor.... Have fun!!



SNOW IN APRIL

Can it be, is it true... did I wake up to SNOW this morning? Indeed, in Mid-April we just received this delightful shower of snow.



THE HUNT FOR THE FAMOUS EGGS



What a fantastic day to hunt for the famous money eggs. The tradition is to hunt for the smaller colored eggs that inside contain the unknown incriments of money. The little kids had more fun and comically could not even see the eggs at eye level.
