Our friends wedding

This past Saturday, I had another wedding to attend. And since I can never figure out how to upload the pics in the correct order, I have to talk about what we did after the wedding. Marin and I went into Madrid because I wanted to see Templo de Debod, pictured below. It's a place I've heard about but never been to. The people taking our picture posed us like this...kinda funny but sweet of them.

Emil and Anca are friends from the Romanian church. She's so cute, and she speaks English so she's a friend I can actually have a decent convo with! The couple was sooo happy and giddy, just like little kids in love! I'm so happy for them!

It was my birthday weekend, so basically Saturday was when I got to do fun things. My 27th birthday was the next day, Sunday, and the Helin family had me over for lunch after I went to church with Tiffany. Michael grilled some BBQ chicken...so yummy! Dawn Marie made huge baked potatoes and baked beans, and my requested Red Velvet cake for dessert! Then I spent a couple hours with Marin, he gave me flowers and we called my parents to wish them a happy anniversary and my twin, Shawny, to wish him a happy birthday! We called Amanda too, to leave a birthday message on her phone, but it never worked. So many wonderful things to celebrate on Sept. 20!!!

Marin & Ambra Sing

This past Friday night, Marin and his daughter Ambra sang "Solo Cristo" at the young adults service at the Romanian church. They are both talented...more talented than I when it comes to anything music! Ambra has a really good voice, although this video and audio is poor quality from my phone, so you can't really tell.

It's been....

a month since I last blogged. Wow! Well, those few of you who read this, know what's going on in life. I've been busy---with getting ready to go home for a little bit, then coming back to Spain and having jet lag and falling asleep at the computer. Then I got permission to date someone whom I really like. He treats me well. He's cute. He is unselfish. He is generous with the little he has. He cares about and loves his family. He tells me I'm pretty all the time. He prays a lot. He makes me smile. Okay, I don't think I need to say all the reasons why I like him, so I'll stop at that. Lots of things keep me busy these days. Since I think the only people who keep up with this are Alicia, Christina and maybe my family....why do I blog? I keep ya'll updated through emails and calls and let's not forget facebook. Sometimes I get annoyed with facebook. I feel like we all just want people to comment and compliment us on our lives...however boring or fascinating they are. I admit, I love being able to keep up with friends or not so much friends and see what's happening in their lives. Anyways, it's a love-hate relationship.
