Cruise to the Carribean...so relaxing and fun!

It was like a dream...we didn't want to come back to the real world. Here are a few pics of some of the highlights of our trip. We would definately go back again, especially with our families. The funny thing is that when we went to Miami last year, I posted a picture here of Steve standing in front of the same ship that we cruised on. So dreams do come true!!!

I better say something about my pregnancy...I'm at 15 weeks, and a lot of people still don't know. I wanted to make sure I was really pregnant before I told everybody, and yes...it's true, I even have a picture from the first ultrasound. Now I don't doubt myself anylonger... the baby will be here in November. At the end of the month I will find out if it's a boy or girl!!

There it is...

Chocolate...

I'm not a big cook (yet), but I love to make things with chocolate. So I finally made a Petit Gateau recipe that worked. It's like a "lava cake" that Beto made for Steve in Brazil, and he loved it! I've tried it several times but you can't cook too long or too little. Here are some pictures of my perfect Petit Gateau...I was so proud I got it right that I took some pictures!!

Continuing with the chocolate...my mom and I got together before Easter and made some homemade chocolate eggs. I had brought the molds from Brazil and wanted to use them. That's how Easter eggs are in Brazil, and the kids hunt for these big chocolate eggs on Easter.

We made a chocolate egg, a marble egg, and my favorite: a chocolate, white chocolate and coconut filled egg. I also took a picture of them cause they were soooo good!!

Hope everyone had a Happy Easter. Can't believe we are 1/3 through the year 2008 already...t's going by sooo fast. Don't you think??
