One of the questions I get asked A LOT is what my typical day is like. Now, don't hate, but it is pretty awesome! I am living my dream and very excited to do so. November and December were pretty hectic for me because I was making tons of jewelry for Christmas, which you can view
here! I ended up selling almost every piece, so it was well worth it, not to mention I LOVE doing it. When things are more laid back, as they are right now, my schedule is very relaxed. Sometimes I think about my life in the States and wonder how I got it all done! Something as simple as kid's birthday parties seemed to take over my life at times. Although, I loved being in the States, (I'm not one of those ex-pat haters!), I felt torn in a million directions. Anyways, here's a snapshot of my 'typical day' in paradise:
7am- Ryder wakes me up and we watch a little tv and I make him something light to eat or drink and of course coffee for me!
8am- Our housekeeper/cook comes in and makes a real breakfast. I make Ryder's lunch for school and put a bathing suit and towel in his book bag.
9am- take Ryder to school, usually River tags along.
10am- catch up on emails, blogs and any business.
11am- play time with River (at home or a play date at the pool)
12pm- lunch by Catalina
1pm- exercise by myself and pick up Ryder on the way back
3pm- hang out with Ryder while River is taking his nap
4pm- read books or blogs
5pm- dinner cooked by Catalina
6pm- clean up from dinner, homework, baths for the boys
7pm- kids go to bed
8pm- watch tv with the hubby
9pm- bedtime
And of course, on the weekends we usually go to the beach to surf and play with the kids. Sundays are usually spent here all day:

| Come on down, the water's mighty fine! |
They have a restaurant and bar with the nfl ticket (a must!), bocci ball, a horse shoe pit and it's right on the beach if you want to do a little exploring. Some people try to say this isn't the "real" Nicaragua, but I don't care where it is, I'll sit by this pool any day! Wouldn't you?!
