things i ♥ thursdays

happy thursday!

i never got around to sharing photos of our mexico trip,
and when i had a window of time a few weekends ago,
i learned our fancy home server {which has a mirror back up} wasn't working.
i'm staying positive about being able to retrieve our files.

i'm itching for a little vacation, but the next one is a ways away
{october we're heading to utah to visit trevor, shannon and the kids}
in the meantime, the boys have been quietly talking about going back to mexico
amongs themselves.  i remind them we are supposed to be saving for a home
i admit it, i do miss mexico, so today,
i am resurrecting things i love thursday to allow me a chance to
think dream about what i miss  *grin*

i ♥ guacamole and chips
i ate alot of it during our last visit to mexico.
the boys ate it even more - several times a day.
{we convinced ourselves it was ok because avocados are healthy}






















i ♥ pico del gallo
i ate this everyday during our last trip



















i ♥ margaritas
enough said























i ♥ mexico's traditional clothing
during our last trip there, we noticed a group of people gathering on the street.
we learned a parade was going to begin. {i can't remember the occasion}
we parked ourselves along the narrow cobblestoned streets and watched.
it was such a treat. we saw everything from local school children performing,
to dancing horses, and many in their country's traditional clothing.
it was one of the highlights of that day.


























i ♥ drinking soda out of glass bottles
in real mexico {where there are more locals than tourists},
this is the norm and it's really cool to me because it's different
than here at home. the boys had their very first sodas in mexico -
orange fantas. {scout will occasionally still ask for when he sees one}

I'm a Southern California mom to 2 boys and a wifey to my long-time love. I work full-time and life is a bit crazy, but I strive to remember to take time to enjoy the little things, because in the end, it's those things that will matter most.
