Mexico's Immigration Laws

There has been so much talk about Arizona's "new" Illegal Immigration bill, I just had to add my 2 cents.

Here are the immigration laws in Mexico~
  • in the country legally;
  • have the means to sustain themselves economically;
  • not destined to be burdens on society;
  • of economic and social benefit to society;
  • of good character and have no criminal records; and
  • contributors to the general well-being of the nation.
The law also ensures that:
  • immigration authorities have a record of each foreign visitor;
  • foreign visitors do not violate their visa status;
  • foreign visitors are banned from interfering in the country’s internal politics;
  • foreign visitors who enter under false pretenses are imprisoned or deported;
  • foreign visitors violating the terms of their entry are imprisoned or deported;
  • those who aid in illegal immigration will be sent to prison.

My Dad's eye surgery~ Not pretty~

My Dad had his eyelids done about 3 weeks ago. So, because those looked so good, he decided to have his bags under the eyes done also~ ( Plus he got a deal from the Dr. Ha!) This is what he looked like today after the surgery. They also resurfaced the area around his eyes. Or in other words they laser burned the skin, so when it's all healed it will look wonderfully young again. I'm wondering if the rest of his face won't need resurfacing after this all heals up!! Now, he says he wants to find a wealthy widow woman to marry!! Great! Just what we need~ Meanwhile, we have to put bags of frozen peas on his eye area every hour or so, keep stuff on the area to keep it moist, soak the area with cold wet clothes, put  eye drops in every other hour!! Whew----We hope this all looks great after going through all this~

Disney World

Taryn's family is having their spring break in Flordia~ they have had fun at the water park, and Disney World. The kids did baptisms at the Orlando Temple, as well as other temple work, for names in our family history! I'm sure some of the people on the other side are happy this is finally done!

EASTER

We drove to Colorado on Saturday, and started cooking our Easter dinner. We had it on Saturday night, since Misha & the twins had to leave on Sunday! The kids woke up to find Easter Baskets filled with all kinds of candy, movies, pj's, & underwear! We laugh at Mallorie who doesn't like candy much--she ended up giving most of her stuff to Kolby, especially the chocolate---Which she won't eat!! Crazy girl~
Our North Carolina Klan spent Easter in Atlanta, & are now in Florida! We miss seeing them this time of year. I'm waiting for pictures! 
The weather here in CO is awful! I'm ready to come back to AZ where it's nice & warm~ Remind me of this in July~ The wind is howling, & the dirt is so thick you can't see the trees at the back of our property. AND it's supposed to snow tomorrow~ Crazy weather--It's this darn "Global Warming". Ha!

Trenton's Tree house & Misha's visit

 Trenton is getting so big~ This is the tree house Jeremy built for him. It's amazing-- These are some of the beautiful forest trees on Kodi's property in Oregon~ It smells wonderful~


Misha and I went to the movie tonight and saw "The Last Song"~ We really enjoyed it, & much better than the book! Which is unusual~Her visit is going way too quick. We haven't got to do all the things we want. Had to take Mallorie to the eye doctor. She needs glasses~ which is apparently pretty common in preemie babies. She was having trouble seeing the white board (what happened to "chalk" boards?) Tomorrow we're all going to the Wildlife zoo---I'm going to be zooed out!! So, hopefully, Christtina, I will get lots of pictures! ha!
