I got to meet a cousin of mine from Italy and show her around Miami! Her name is Licia, she is a foreign exchange student and finishing high school in Dickinson, TX. She came to Miami for 4 days as part of her spring break.
She arrived on Tuesday and my daddy brought her by my house. She brought a little gift for Sofie that was so sweet and unexpected! I tried to take her out during the day as much as a I could, but with Sofie its a little limiting.. we went to eat lunch with my mom in Coral Gables on Wednesday and we ate Peruvian food! She got to taste fried yuca and platanitos for the first time EVER and loved it! lol Then Thursday we went to Dadeland for a little shopping, but she forgot her wallet at home so she could only window shop. Friday we went back to Dadeland so she could fulfill her list!! =) And of course I shopped a little too both days! hee hee
Saturday was the best day! We went to the beach.. one of my favorite places!! Nery stayed with Sofie so I could go relax with Licia and my mom. First, however, I made a pit stop to buy some croquettas from my favorite place to snack on at the beach. Licia had never tried them, and I had been talking about them all week so I HAD to stop and get some!
I met up with them on 14th street (after parking on 14th, walking to 13th and then walking back to 14th!) The day was gorgeous! Couldn't have asked for better weather! The sun was out, the wind was cool and it was just perfect!! We got there around 12 and left the sand at 4ish. I thankfully used sunscreen all over the place, except the back of my legs. . . . . bad idea.. I got a sunburn from my ankles all the way to my bum, and it still hurts a little to sit! But I was lucky compared to Licia. Crazy girl didn't use sun screen at all and used oil instead!!! Lucky for her she didn't burn her back so she was able to sleep on her back but everywhere else was horrible!! I blame myself and my mom for not warning her, but in my defense I did see her put sunblock on her face! Then I didn't think about it again!!
SORRY LICIA!!!! lol
After we left the sand, we walked down Washington looking at all the stores. We went to DASH (the Kardashian store) and, don't judge me, but I am a fan of theirs and I was totally let down by the store! It was dingy and a little dark, I would even go as far as to say it looked dirty!! Plus it was horribly over priced!!! Not so much for the clothes, but for the K sisters merch!!! They are selling DASH cotton t shirts for $60, $4 for a pencil(!!) and bottles of water with their faces on them for $10!!!!! For water.... WATER!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry K sisters, I really do like you guys, you're entertaining as hell, but there is no way I can pay $10 for water when I can getting a bottle for $1!!! Crazy bitches!!!
Anyway, Licia left on Sunday and Sofie and I miss her.. especially Sofie! Sofie loved her!!! If we were both in her line of sight Sofie was always looking at Licia and she was always so happy while Licia was holding her!
Licia will be back soon, after she graduates, and I can't wait to get to spend more time with her!!
Oh.. Saturday (3/17) was also one year since Nery proposed to me! =) It's been an amazing year, and things seem to only be getting better and better! I love him so much and I thank God every day that he brought us together!
Here are some pictures from the night he proposed!
