Incidentally...

3.3.10 Two weeks later... Remember that hike we went on for Valentine's Day? Well This night, I'm sitting here and glanced down at my toes. My ruby red toe nail polish had grown out enough for me to see that there was black underneath it. Hastily I started picking off my polish only to discover that my previously CUTE toenails had been SO traumatized from our hike down that mountain and they decided to turn black! Clearly I wasn't exaggerating before when I said "even my toenails hurt." They were crying out for help and I ignored their call until this evening. I've learned yet another thing here in Mexico... be absolutely SURE that when hiking up a goliath of a mountain that you wear proper hiking shoes that aren't a titch too small AND that your cute little toenails are clipped and trimmed so they won't be shoved into the toe of your shoe on the way down. I realize now the error of my ways. :( And so do my toes. double :(

Mexico

Before-The day I realized they turned black.

Mexico 578

After-I had to repaint them (OF COURSE!) but with bluish color to cover the black underneath.

About Us

Jocotepec, Jalisco, Mexico
We are a family of 5 consisting of a Mom & Dad, a set of twins and a 4 year old. With the exception of Javier, Jaden, Jorden, Corbin and I were Utah born and raised. Javier was born in California and has lived in MANY places including Mexico. Javier is a social butterfly (for lack of a more masculine word) while I am more reserved, because of this I think we make a good fit. We are doing our best to raise our three sons as well-rounded, respectful individuals who will prove to be responsible and HAPPY when grown. We like to make the most of life. We LOVE traveling & seeing new places! Javier has made magical things happen for this family and I love him for that (even though MY Mom may not.)
