A new chapter in our lives!

My last day of classes is Wednesday April 13th, and I'm so happy; Max's last day is May 4th. It is interesting, we are in our late twenties and we have spent most of this decade of our lives in school. In perspective, it has been the best thing we could have done.
In a personal level, being in school has been a character building experience; who would have known how enticing cheat on assignments is, or how easy is to procrastinate and how hard it is to catch up.
Well, those lessons have been learned and being married and wanting a family in the very near future our lives we have to adjust the course and for sure all those lessons learned in college have to prove. However I do not think that relying only on our experiences will guaranteed our complete happiness.
I dear fondly what "The Family a Proclamation to the World" declares:
Happiness in family life is more likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ.

caching up!

We are going to Dallas, Texas; yeeha! We are so very excited for our new adventure! Max's brothers are already fighting for us to stay with them on the firsts weeks of May. That makes Max feel important at all levels!
This month of April has turned very busy already which I do not mind at all. My beautiful "hermanita" is graduating in Entrepreneurship (a major that suits her spirit and personality to perfection.) My parents and little brother (Rodrigo) are coming to town in less than a week, and I cannot wait to see them. Last time they were here was for my wedding; it was so very great! If all goes well my brother (Paco) will get into a master program this year. Our prayers and good wishes are with him and his wife.
I have to confess, I decided to take care of our "relocating affairs" after my sister's Commencement Ceremony (which by the way will take place for the first time in the history of LDS Business College in the Tabernacle at Temple Square, isn't it cool or what!)  by then I'll be through with school and staying home all day focusing my energy in 1) feeding Max properly, 2) going through stuff, 3) packing, 4) blogging and 5)enjoying my parent's visit, yay!
In other matters, this week I had the coolest experiences riding the bus to Tooele, and in the check out at WalMart. In the bus someone was swearing and the bus driver said "no swearing in the bus" it was amazing! and then on WalMart I had a nice lady checking me out she helped me with my big blue bag (IKEA bag) and she matched prices of some of the items I had, and ALLwith a great smile. There is goodness all around, what you think?

general conference

La Conferencia General es uno de mis eventos favoritos del año. En este año en particular, celebramos el 75 aniversario del Programa de Bienestar de la Iglesia. Tras escuchar los multiples discursos de nuestros lideres, no hay lugar a dudas de que Dios conoce nuestras nescesidades y El sabe que a traves del servicio aprendemos y llevamos a cabo su obra.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

General conference is one of my favorite times of the year. This year we celebrate 75ht anniversary of the Church's Welfare Program. After hearing the messages from our leaders there is no doubt that God knows our needs and there is no doubt that He knows that is through service that we learn and do His work.
