After painting the edges we are finally finished with all the main living areas in our town home. NO MORE POPCORN CRAP. Well, there are 2 closets and the storage area above the washer/dryer still has it but we're not sure if we're going to do those areas.

Sophie Goes to Nursery


This is a video clip of Sophie dancing in nursery. She isn't old enough to go regularly, she's almost 16 months old, but I thought would be fun for her and as you can see, it was :) 

The video quality isn't that great because I used my cell phone to film but try to enjoy it anyway.  

About 15 seconds into the clip a little boy to my right try to sit on a chair next to me and missed and fell on his bum. It was pretty funny but I only got his feet in the video. You can hear me say "are you alright?". 


Este e' um video clip de Sophie no bercario da Igreja. Ela nao tem idade sufficiente para ir ainda. Ela tem 16 meses, mas eu pensei que ser divertido para ela e como voce pode ver, foi. 

A qualidade do video nao e' boa por que eu usei meu Cell fone para filmar, mas tenta se divertir de qual quer forma. 

Mas ou menos 15 segundos no video un garato de meu lado tentou sentar na cadeira do meu lado e caiu no chao. Foi engrecado, mas eu so peguei os pes dele no video. Voce pode me ouvir dizer no video "Esta bem?"

Wilmington/Kure beach #1

Faced with the difficult decision of sitting at home with 3 days off or grab a quick vacation we decided after talking to some friends to take off for Wilmington, North Carolina for a few days. The trip was about 4 hours with Sophie being a brat for 2 of them we finally rolled into town to our Quality Inn room. Shortly after we headed down to Fort Fisher to visit the North Carolina Aquarium at Ft. Fisher. 



Sophie was futzy and whinny the whole trip except for last hour before finally arriving in town.

Hey there buddy, you're going to be my next meal or pair of boots if you don't stop eyeing me!

Daddy and Sophie looking at some Nemos! 


Wilmington/Kure beach #2

BIG HUGE lobster. This bad boy, if you could see him in real life is about as long as my arm. Too bad if I cooked him up he wouldn't taste very good. From what I understand lobster meat gets tougher and less tasty as the beast gets older. 
Sophie and Lisiane looking at HUGE Monterey Eel.
We got a nice couple to take our photo in front of one of the aquariums 
but you can't see the fish too well

Kure Beach house row. The wires criss-crossing the street reminds 
me a lot of Brazil and how their power lines are. 

Casas no Kure Beach. Os fios cruzando a rua me-lembra de Brasil e como sao os fios la.
