Shortly after we arrived and the girls began school, Scarlett was very excited to learn her name in Spanish is Scarletta. And since then she has been signing her name as such and asking her classmates and her family to call her Scarletta. I guess I can be glad it’s not a completely different name. Although it’s pretty much the same I seem to butcher the correct “espanol” pronunciation…every….time. I simply say “Vi-O-let-A” but according to the small people inhabiting my home it should be: “BEE-O-let-AH”. Maybe I’ll get it right for the plane ride home.

Summer 2017
We had an amazing summer! Really, it was awesome! We finally were able to buy another mini-van (we sold our last Sienna to pay for our plane tickets to Spain), we put our mail on hold and took off for adventures around Washington state. We spent most of our days out exploring and […]
Granada, Spain
Granada was the last of the three cities we visited over Christmas break. With the fact that we would be there be that we would be there for four nights during the holidays, I tried to find a place where I didn’t also have to pay for parking. As parking added considerable cost to the hostels […]
Haaa. I’m reading this in a Dr’s waiting room and laughed out loud! Yes at least it’s not another name. Ray was doing book report on Jesse Owens- his name was James Cleveland and family called him JC- a teacher misunderstood and called him Jesse– he later legally changed his name. Darn teachers. Aside from Jeff of course 😉
LOL!!! I love that!
