Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Thiago "Pinta" Cury!

I have been meaning to blog about this but I keep forgetting... On April 18th we ventured to Killen, AL.  to celebrate the union of Robin and Pinta.  Honestly, I was really scared for them because NOTHING was coming together for their wedding.  Poor things...  But God took care of them and everything finally came together.  Robin and Pinta hold a special place in our hearts because she is American and he is Brazilian.  I was Robin's friend and Pinta was Enzo's friend.  It is great to see two friends getting married who are going through similar things.  
Also, it was Evie's first out of town trip.  She was amazing.  She also started sleeping 8 hours during the night on this trip!  Thank God.  I don't know if I was created to be up so much during the night.  Oh and maybe soon I can get a picture of us from the wedding.  I think the photographer took a picture.. I can't believe we didn't take one with our own camera!

Evie becomes Brazilian


On April 6th we headed to the Brazilian Consulate  to get Evie's Brazilian citizenship and passport.  We got there with no problem...the location is awesome, right off of the highway.   As we got there I was very surprised by the number of babies in the waiting area,  They were all babies with both parents being Brazilian.  I was the only Caucasian American in the entire place.  I felt like I was back in Brazil.  We waited for only a short period of time before we were called back..which I must say is impressive for Brazilians.  Surprisingly, Enzo and I had brought all the paperwork needed to Evie's documents.  I am always afraid that we are forgetting something important and that we would have to go back.  Well actually we did forget one thing but it didn't hinder Evie from getting her documents...Enzo and I never registered our marriage in Brazil which causes all of Evie's Brazilian paper work to have my maiden name on it instead of my married name.  It isn't that big of a deal because now all we need to do is go register our marriage in Brazil and then just have her Brazilian birth certificate changed. Oh and I must say, I have never seen such a cute passport!  The picture on it is her little 4 week old face smiling!  Even if something happens to where she didn't use it is it still will be such a sweet memory!

Weekend Summary

This weekend was very eventful for little Evie.  Friday night she went to her first Easter egg hunt, Saturday she went to celebrate my friend Kristy's birthday at Piedmont Park, Saturday night her Grandaddy became the first one ever to babysit her while we celebrated our 3 year anniversary, and this morning she woke up and went to church for the first time.  

Here is a picture my friend Kristy captured while at the park.

3 year wedding anniversary is tomorrow and I have no gift!

Tomorrow marks 3 years of being married to Enzo.  Some of you might be confused because you might remember us getting married during the summer on the beach.  Well we did but if you remember we also got married in the courthouse 2 months prior. Here we are...a few pounds lighter and 3 years less wise.
