Real Salt Lake vs Saprisa!!!!

Last night we went to see the Real Salt Lake play against Costa Rica's team Deportivo Saprisa, and guess who won..... OUR TEAM: Saprisa!!! OE OE OE OEEEE Ticoos Ticoooos!!!!! We spend a wonderful time at the stadium, we only brought little Chris because we realized that Abby is to young to actually enjoy this kind of activity! So Randall babysat for us. There were only around 20 Costaricans in the whole stadium and the rest: Americans, but boy.... we were loud!!!!! LOL every time Costa Rica scored that stadium bounced and shook from our songs and jumping... We scored two goals and the Americans around us looked at us like if we were crazy hahaha and they are right when it is about soccer we are passionate and crazy!!! And when the Real Salt Lake scored the last goal of the game (final scored: CR:2 RSL:1) we were clapping too, because they play it good to! So in general was a great game. We got the chance to met more Costaricans ( around 6 or 7), and I realized how we love our people, when they saw us with the Costarican flag painted in our faces they all approached and ask us what town we were from and how long we been living here, they were sooo happy to see us like were to..because there are not many Costarican here in Utah, so we exchange telephone numbers and addresses. After the game we enjoyed the beautiful fire works.

Chris & Abby got surgery!!!!!

Yesterday Chris and Abby got surgery. Abby had tubes inserted in her ears and Chris had the same plus adenoidectomy ( adenoids removed).
At first ( I'm not goin to lie) we where really scared, cause they never got surgery before, and as a parent you don't want your kids to suffer any kind of pain.
It was a little scary they both would had the same surgery the same day cause i didn't know how bad they would feel after it.

The night before the surgery we pray a lot and ask for patience and serenity while they had the procedure.
We had to be at the clinic at 6:30 in the morning,Chris and I woke up and got ready and after we were ready we woke up the kids and seat them in the car( still half asleep and in their pajamas).
We got there and they have a waiting room with toys and TV so the kids where busy and playing while we sign up some documents.
After 10 minutes the nurse came and call us, she took us to a different room and then they ask us to change their pajamas and get them in the shirts that the clinic provided.
Then the Dr. Herras came and talk to us and explain the procedure (again) and she answer all our questions ( we didn't had much to ask ).
After 5 minutes in that room another nurse came and ask Abby to go with her, we where surprise that she hop in the nurse arms with no fuss. I was scared but i couldn't show that because we still had Chris with us...
After 10 minutes a different nurse came and ask Chris to go with her and blow a pink balloon ( the anesthesia mask). They had a wagon and Chris hop in the wagon and play driving it while they took him away... Chris and I where so anxious to know what was going on inside but we just had to way...
The nurses asked us to go to a different room ( recovering room) and wait there. they gave us the biggest room they have because we had two patients.
We didn't wait much there maybe 10 minutes maybe less but seemed long for me, Then we saw Abby in the arms of a nurse and they came to us, Abby was soooo calm and content! As soon s she saw us she jump in to my arms. Immediately Daddy wanted to hold his baby girl and took her from my arms. She didn't cry but was really really quite.
Then the nurse brought apple juice and Popsicles that Abby ate like she never had one before lol.
After 20 minutes maybe... A nurse brought Little Chris and he was still drudged and half asleep he tried to hold his head up but he couldn't..and as soon as he saw us he stared to cry and scream: i have a boo boo help me mommy help me daddy! that broke my heart. He tried to take his IV out and pull it several times but we ask the nurse if he still need that and she said it was OK to take it out then so she took it out. He cry sooo hard and scream for about 40 minutes we felt so bad cause we couldn't do anything to make him feel better, It was horrible cause we tough he was in pain, but the nurse later explain to us that was just the sickness and sensation of disorientation when they are waking up from the anesthesia.

After those 40 minutes he felt better and better and ask for water.Then the Dr. came and gave us the instructions for home and we where out of there ,,, I mean they are awesome people but i really wanted to be at home taking care of them.

On our way home we asked them if they were hungry and they asked for pancakes and juice!! That was a good sign they were hungry!!!!

And then we stop at Denny's and had breakfast and went home and they being feeling better and better and actually last night they where running and jumping normally!

Now.. we just have to keep an eye on them until the follow up appointment with the doctor.

Stadium Of Fire!!! 4th OF JULY

Wow!!!! never in my life we had seen a show like this before!
This 4Th of July we spend the most exited 4t of July in our life so far in the Stadium of Fire in Provo.
It was absolutely awesome! The kids where soooo excited..
Abby's favorite: was Hanna Montana she was Miley Cyrus not Hanna for this concert but Abby didn't notice the difference she was dancing and singing the whole time!
My father in law came with us and his favorite part was the army jets flying on top of us,
Little Chris' mouth dropped to the floor when he saw the skydivers in the sky and landing right there in front of us.
Chris favorite part was The blue man, they made us laugh and dance and scream like crazy!!! My favorite was the dancers i can't believe the way so many dancers coordinate such a perfect show that last for 7 minutes!!! It's hard to choose a favorite part of the show because the whole concert was unbelievable.
That's definitely one night that we'll never forget.
THANKS TO MIKE & EMMA THAT GAVE US THE TIKETS...YOU GUYS PUT THE EXCLAMATION POINT IN OUR LIFE!!!

La parte favorita de Abby fue el concierto de Hanna Montana, bueno esta vez era Miley Cyrus pero abby no noto la diferencia ella canto y bailo tooodo el tiempo!
Mi suegro nos acompano y su parte favorita fue los jets del army volando encima de nosotros.
Crisito se le callo l boca al piso cuando vio a los paracaidistas saltando de la avioneta y aterrizar en frente de nosotros!
La parte favorita de Chris fue los blue man que nos hicieron bailar y cantar y gritar como locos! Demasiado chiva!!!!
Mi pate favorita fueron las bailarias, no puedo creer que tantas bailarinas (eran un monton mas de 150) bailen tan cordinadas en este espectacular montaje que duro 7 minutos!!! Es dificil escojer tu parte favorita porque todo el cncierto fue maravilloso.
Esta fue una noche que nunca olvidaremos!

We love our new house!!!!

Yeah! We finally move to a house. This is the 5Th time we move in 6 years and pray and hope this is the last one.The moving process is exhausting physically and mentally ... we packed and move in two days. And the cleaning and unpacking was worse: took us two weeks to finally unpack and put everything in order. BUT FINALLY we are settled now.
The kids LOVE this house they have their play room and the yard is really safe! We just got Internet cable and phone this week so that's why i haven't post lately!
I'll post some pics later on.

SIII! por fin nos mudamos a una casa!. Esta es la quint vez que nosmudamosen un periodo de 6 anos y le pido a Dios que esta sea la ultima ! El proceso de mudanza es agotador fisica y emocionalmente...empacamos todo y nos mudamos en dos dias. Y la limpiaza y ladesempacada fue peor: nos tomo dos semanas para finalmente desempacar todo y poner todo en orden. PERO POR FIN ya nos acomodamos.

Los ninos aman esta casa claro porque tienen su propio cuarto de juegos y el patio es muy seguro!
Hasta esta semanama me instalaron los servicios de internet , cable y telefono... por eso no habia escrito nada ultimamente.
Luego pongo fotitos!
