This is not your “normal” blog. Well what’s normal anyways, right? This blog is the story of our family, told by me. We are the Machado family, Saul, Amber Kayden, Brielle and soon to be son Moises. We live in a place where we drive with our baby on our lap, we only see a Target every 3 or 4 months, there is an orphanage down the road and most of our friends don’t speak English. I met Saul right after high school when I went to serve in an orphanage for 6 months. Those 6 months turned into 3 years and I went home to Canada with a love for the country of Mexico and my new husband. 2 years ago we moved back to Mexico, answering a call from God to go. This is our story, our adventure to love because love is a lifestyle we want to live. Come with us! See what I see what I see outside my window, join the love challenge, here about our adoption process and even enjoy a few DIY and decorating projects. See what it’s like to live life in another part of the world and be inspired to change how you live life in yours! Hope you stick around! I’m always looking for new friends…
Love Amber
I so very much appreciate your journaling and your photos, Amber, thank you….
Hey Amber!
Love your blog and pictures….. AND ALL THE NICE MESSAGE! Your smile and you family is refreshing!
Amber not sure if you know who I am but I do remember you and Saul from out trip to the Baja in 2010. I enjoyed reading your post so much. I too pray that I will never get used to the poverty or the need and that my heart will always respond with love and compassion and praying for practical ways to touch the people. Your blog makes me yearn to come back – planning for Jan through March. Many blessings to you and your family
I’m so glad you were Freshly Pressed (congratulations). What a lovely blog…featuring a lovely family.
What a beautiful blog. Blessings to you.
Hi Amber,
I was really happy to find your blog on freshly pressed today! I am a Canadian girl, lived back and forth Costa Rica for a while and fell in love with my boyfriend, Alex here in Turrialba. Only 10 months living here as a decided permanent status and I don’t have a baby but I have a big puppy who is enough for now. I love the ideas you convets with your blog! It’s really well done.. I only just started mine so I’m a bit clueless on a lot of things…But thank you for sharing everything with everyone and I’ll keep reading!
Muchos saludos y bendiciones
Jo
