Grandma's are Great


My mom came to visit us and just left today, after spending about 4 weeks here. I meant to add this while she was here, but we had so much fun going to the beach and visiting all the great places that Brazil has to offer that I just simply ran out of time. Part of living here means we do not get a few of the things we are used to getting at the store in America, so I took advantage of my mom just a little bit and begged her to bring a few thing along. I was mostly interested in the hair spray. One can here is about $54.00 American dollars. Marcus was not happy spending that much money, and would say, "I must really love you, to be spending that much on that stuff!" and of course I would not want to be out done and I would say, "I must really love you,to follow you half way around the world where you have to spend that much money on that stuff!" Anyway my mom was a real life saver and we both were very happy she brought me 5 cans. Thank goodness she was allowed 70 pounds in her suitcases. As you can see she was able to bring us a lot of things that we so desperately needed. THANK YOU SO MUCH MOM, YOU ARE AWESOME!!! I hope you had as much fun with us as we had with you!!!

It has got to be interesting to find out what you miss when you can't have it. I call that my Fort Irwin Shopping experience.
