Strolling Around Town.

It was a lovely day to get together with my amigas and explore the town of Palma together. Mallorca is a beautiful place and has an "old town" where it is surrounded by wall because the water line used to come far in land many many years ago.

Alicia came into town for the day, so we took the opportunity to have some fun together and this is how our day went.... 

We first went down to the Mediteranean Sea and walked along the beach. 

Then we got on the bus and rode into the town and walked over to the big wall.

 A little side note: while we were on the bus about a foot away from me a group of kids started to fight.  I pretty much ended up on Lindsey's lap next to the window.  It was pretty freaky.

We laughed, talked and took pictures of many things.

We loved the buildings and colors every street we walked down.

We loved little back street and the balcony's.

We stopped at a little resteraunt and ate Topas.

Now that we werent hungry anymore, we continued our journey on to the catherdrial.

The view was very pretty, so we decided to sit and enjoyed the beautiful view for a while.

And of course we couldn't end our night without gelato, so we stopped and got some yummy gelato before we all departed ways.

Lindsey and I arrived at the bus stop at 10:45pm thinking that a bus will be there any minute. Unknown to our knowledge there wasnt going to be a bus 46 for the rest of the night.  At about midnight lindsey and i just decided to get on another bus that would take us half way, but we still had to hike up the hill to where our houses where.  We ended up doing that and arrived a little while after midnight.  We were just glad to get home on our own because we didnt want to end up calling someone again.

I hope that is our last night that we will struggle with the bus system here in Mallorca.

Adios.

Im Leaving on a Jet Plane....Europe Bound!

Well after traveling for over a 24 hour period getting on 3 planes and having a 2 hour wait on the plane in ATL.... we are Finally in Palma, Mallorca. Exhaustion is what I feel, think and I am right now. I love the families and just love that I am in Spain. Last night when we arrived Marta and Alicia (Linsey's little girls) were having a birthday party, so it was pretty much crazy from the start when we got here.  It was a fun evening though. 

Yes this is a gross picture but just had to show what we looked like after sitting on the runway for 2 hours in ATL.

We LOVED these neck pillow :)

We are almost to Palma

(Cant you tell? Just look at our happy faces :))

My first full day in Spain was quit lovely.  We played games, went swimming, and had loads of fun.  This evening The family took me to the board walk and we got gelato.  Later Linsy, Carolina, and I met in town and walked around for awhile.  But of course while Linsy and I were on our way home on the bus...we didnt get off on our stop and got lost our first night out in Palma. Hopefully it was the last time that will happen. 

Adios!

cousins.

I might be a little biased, but I think I have the cutest/best/most amazing cousins ever.

(I could go on forever but I just wanted to wish two of them a happy birthday.)

Happy sweet 16 Katelyn!

You are the sweetest and kindest cousin/friend.

I loved being able to spend time in Oregon with you.

One year ago

Lindsey and I were on our way home from Arizona

 But we didnt get very far...

I am so grateful that we are here today.

Lindsey I'm lucky to have you as my best friends and a great bounce is that you are my cousin. I will always remember the hours and days that we would both be in physical therapy. Thank you for being who you are. I dont know what I would have done if something happened to you. I feel blessed  that we both were not seriously injuried and were able to leave 2 weeks later on our seperate adventures last Summer.

Here's to new adventures...

that we get to experience together this Summer.

God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.

 

I am so blessed to have you as my mother. 

I love you and admire the strong woman you are.

You have been my teacher, example, and role model.

Thank you for being understanding and kind.

Thank you for always being there by my side

Thank you for loving me unconditionaly

Thank your for being the rock in our family.

The noblest calling in the world is that of mother. True motherhood is the most beautiful of all arts, the greatest of all professions. She who can paint a masterpiece or who can write a book that will influence millions deserves the plaudits and admiration of mankind; but she who rears successfully a family of healthy, beautiful sons and daughters whose immortal souls will be exerting an influence throughout the ages long after paintings shall have faded, and books and statues shall have been destroyed,deserves the highest honor that man can give."
