Happy Halloween!

Hello Everyone,

Hope you guys are all celebrating Halloween. I wish I was there.... I had so much fun last year during the Halloween parties...
Here in Brazil Halloween is not a big celebration like in the US.

So October is over and now I am counting down the days for my 30th birthday. November 13th is just around the corner and I am getting there: 30.

I have some news: I got a job in HR and started two weeks ago! I am enjoying my new job and coworkers.

Sorry I don't have any pictures to post here today. My brother was in Japan in the past 10 days and he had my camera. But just wait: my birthday party is going to be a BIG celebration and I am going to post some pictures here.

Hope all is well.

Hugs and kisses.
=)

Sorry...

Hello Everyone,

Sorry for my lack of posts here... I've found a new job and I've been so busy... But I promise that I will post all about my new life soon.

Take care.

=)

Long Weekend

Just like in the US, we also had a long weekend this past weekend. But we did not celebrate Columbus Day in Brazil; on Oct 12th, we celebrate a Catholic holiday, but everyone gets the day off.

And nothing better than having friends over and a Brazilian barbecue to celebrate the 3 days weekend.
My parents and their friends are preparing their group for the Carnival 2010 and they had some people over to see pictures from last year and start making plans for the next year. But it is only an excuse to regroup and have some fun!

I decided not to travel anywhere and stayed at my parent's. It was a good opportunity to see my parents' friends that I haven't seen in almost 2 years. Also, I could see my Godparents and it is always good to hang out with them.

I'm sure that most of you don't know my Parents (in blue) and my Godparents, so here they are:





















Hope you guys have had a great long weekend as well!

International Guest

Today was a gorgeous sunny day here in Santo Antonio do Pinhal. And to celebrate the day, nothing better than a very good friend from Michigan and a barbecue!
Kevin has been in Brazil many times before, but he was not so confident he could make the real Brazilian barbecue back at home by himself, so nothing better than a very good chef (my Dad) to give him some good tips... And yes, the meat was so yummy!

It was a very special day. It is always nice to see people we like and have a great time!
