I don't know how it happened.

...or what i did to deserve this man.

sometimes i think to myself "why in the world did he pick me to marry? of all the girls, of all the times i gave him a reason to leave, of all the good catches out there,

why in the world me..... little Doris."


Last Saturday, I wanted to go out so we went out…
Sunday, I wanted cereal & he got me cereal…

He apologizes even when it’s my fault…

He just smiles when I get bored and cut off my dogs hair…
He supports me in every crazy idea I get like making the red monster that he sleeps with in the picture above…

He listens and comforts me whenever I loose my mind, when I cry about something awful in a slight (almost) quarter life crisis kind of way as I have panic attacks about life and my future.
He makes me such a better person and helps me to always do the right thing.
He is always there for me when I’m super grumpy and I can’t even stand myself...
I can’t help but silently word, "thank you" to my heavenly father for him.


thank you, Bodokito husband.
I love you.

Beautiful but not so much my style...

I really think these are beautiful but I think they're more of my mom's style than mine, she will really love to have some of this stuff in her house! I do love the doors and the skylight things the most.

Beach Houses

My parents used to have a house on the beach years ago, it was designed by my dad but he is actually more of an engineer than an architect so you could just see about 4 rooms lined next to each other with a bathroom in the middle which a HUGE swimming pool in the front. The beach houses here in El Salvador usually look more like country houses than actual beach houses I guess it has to do with security since burglars are everywhere and very popular... here are a few I found just to show you what I'm talking about.

THE ALEPH, DREAMS PAINTER

Hazel is an old friend of mine and her father is famous artist "El Aleph", his amazing paintings can be found around the world, here is a little bit about him and his work:

Alex Sánchez (“El Aleph”) was born March 10th, 1954, in the tiny and picturesque town of Moncagua, Province of San Miguel, El Salvador. His primary school and high school studies were completed in a rural school in his home town. His drawing and painting studies were performed at Centro Nacional de Artes de San Salvador (National Arts Center of San Salvador). Among his most inspiring teachers was the great Spanish master Valerio Lecha.

Aleph’s childhood was quiet and happy. His first encounters with drawing and art happened in his own home. His grandmother shared with him the beauty of sunsets and the first lights of daybreak. The drawings of nature inspired the young artist. The clouds and the amazing colors of the rainbow after the morning storms. The huge arc pinned on the limits of the horizon. With fertile imagination and the curiosity that only children posess, Aleph observed simple household utensils: utensils handcrafted with black clay from Guatajiagua (small town in El Salvador), pitchers, vases, mugs, and tin lamps. The grinding stone, the burners, and the comal (clay dish for tortillas).
