Life in São Paulo and travel throughout South America
Happy Heart
So many things have made my heart full this past week. (Caesar. Salad.) The list is too long to count, but here are a few photos that document my return to Minnie.
My best friend since fifth grade flew in from California TO SEE ME.
Just like old times, Katharine and I ate lots, chatted until all hours of the morning and had a sleepover. Which is still completely acceptable.
Catholic mass at All Saints in Madison Lake, Mn. My grandfather and great grandfather helped to build this church where the husband and I were married in 2010.
New. Foster. Puppies.
Meet Spot & Brittany. They are so small they don’t seem real and they follow me e v e r y w h e r e.
The pups just told me they have always wanted to see Brazil.
If you are interested in crushing my dreams adopting, click on their names above and fill out an application with Secondhand Hounds.
Below is a real life conversation with my sister regarding the pups.
(It is possible that I make life changing decisions for family members without consultation on a regular basis.)
So if you want to see me… or just the puppies, get in touch.
Also, if you are reading this from Brazil, I am drinking tap water and flushing toilet paper.
Yes, it is just as luxurious as it sounds.

you are too funny, I also talked to the puppies and they said they wanted to meet me. apparently dogs know how to use skype these days. anyways I thought I should be the one to tell you!
and ps, no need to rub tap water and toiletpaper into the mix, unnecessary!
That comment is EXACTLY why we are friends. Miss you lady!
Bjs e abs,
April
ps. We have hot water from the faucet, too. Isn’t it amazing what becomes exciting in the life of an expat?!
Your hot water comment just puts it over the line, April. I think you should bring us each 4 jars of peanut butter for that.
I deserve that. Skippy or Jif?
If the pups don’t make it to Brazil you can send them postcards! LOL! Love your blog April!
Thank goodness for FB! I get to stay in touch with adopters and see updates on the pups. Great seeing you yesterday Di… chat soon!
It was sooooo great to see you! I’m sure we’ll continue having sleepovers until we’re old and grey:) love ya apes!
I am bringing back the sleepover. It was seriously amazing. Miss you already!! Love ya Kat
oh to flush toilet paper, drink tap water and snuggle with puppies… You are living the dream right now.
I know… I have to keep telling myself ‘this is temporary!’ On the other hand, I miss my fresh juice, sunshine, and friends in SP… see you in May
Will you be in Chicago? Tell me your plans so we can connect. I would love to see you.
Yes!! Plans to be there from Friday (for Amate Magic) through Monday. Let’s plan on it
Can’t wait to see you and the kiddos!
