About Me and My Loves
Howdy Y'all and Welcome! I have been married to my studly hubby for almost 5 years now; who is an energetic, outgoing, handyman helicopter pilot. We recently made our first big move cross country from Utah to Texas with our now 20mo. old "Rae of Sunshine" Azure. We love experiencing anything and everything and holding nothing back. We love dreaming and creating things of all kinds together. I hope that this blog will help our families back home keep up with our busy life, and maybe inspire some along the way...from family to home, money to food, holidays, travel, photography and crafts. this... this is my life!.... Enjoy.

So let me tell you about my wonderful Thursday... It all started at 2:30 in the morning when the alarm went off in mine and bretts hotel room. So i rolled out of bed and packed my bags to climb onto a bus that had to drive an hour and a half to the montego bay airport. I then had to wait at the terminal for an hour or more for a plane was to take me to miami. As we hit the soil of florida i looked at my boarding pass for my connecting flight which read departure time 11:15a thinking im making good timing beatre my phone said 10:00. I make it thru the hustle and bustle of immigration and customs. Now on to baggage claim where i wait and wait and wait... And wait! No bag! I look at the clock and its 11:00! And i still have to recheck my bag and find my gate. Finally at ten after my bag drops down. I grab it and run! I looked like i was trying to sneak across the border sprinting with a paniced face! I check my bag and sprint across the three day hike of the airport and get my terminal at 11:29! Crap i had missed it for sure! I take a seat to catch my breathe and keep from crying or laughing because my emotions we mixed up from being so tired...when a voice from heaven sang down to me saying, Now boarding flight number 1518 to nashville tennessee! Yes! I hadn't missed it after all. The plane was leave coming in. So in celebration i go grab me more airport food and go take a pee. Its now 2:00pm and im in nashville waiting for my next flight to chicago and then from there finally to home! Where I will arrive at around 9 or 10. Oh and did i mention that i am alone and have been from the time i stepped onto the bus, because brett had to stay in jamaica and finish work. This is the first time ever i have had to fly and handle an airport alone! By the way brett i love you, but you are never booking my flights again! :)

Breakfast of jamaican champions!... A tasteless muffin that who knows how old it is because it came from an airport vendor in jamaica at 3 am!

Leavin on a jet plane!

Flight 654 on its way to Jamaica...everything is irie mon!

Uh what who is Tiara Parker?!

So we got up at 3:30 this morning to get to the airport to catch our flight to Jamaica. Way to early with only three hours of sleep! So we get car parked and get ready to check in and realized we had booked Tiaras ticket with her married name and her passport says her maiden name! Crap. So they told us they would charge is 100 bucks to do it if they could. I winked and smiled and said ok. Luckly she was able to and didn't charge us anything. I know it was the wink!

Start of memorial weekend!

Today we visited Tiara's fathers grave. We got a cool little John Deere tractor and put some dirt in the bucket(dirt was my idea!) it was a nice day. We laid back and watched the clouds go by. We saw a dragon, a kangaroo, and a cow playing the guitar! Tiara found the guitar playin cow... She is so creative! One day before our trip to Jamaica!

Starting a little early with their truck driving days!

Latin bus!

So this is the line of Hispanic kids that we waited 10 minutes for them all to load. In another place it took two buses to pick up all the kids! This population is the backbone of our city and many other cities throughout the US! What would happen if they were all deported... Our economy would die without them!
