The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth...!

or "The case of mistaken identities!

"For the longest time Isaac has been asked on more than one occasion "So, how's your wife doing?" or " How's the little one doing?" and then "How're the kids doing ??!"

If anyone thought that matters would get simpler March 8th after the newest addition to the Sacra family aka me/Maria was announced....far from it!

Now "they" want to know: Why is "Maria" engaged to James! or more embarassingly, "What're you doing with Roshini's husband?!" No kidding!

The final straw is that James and Isaac mix US up!! Seriously!!And we're going, "Umm.....GUYS.......One's brown, the other's not!" Of course both of us realize that it's easy to mistake the Sacra brothers for each other, but when WE get pulled into the tangle of "mistaken identities", we find that a little comical ....




They sure look like family! right...? Not so fast!

And if you were one of those who thought so, you definitely need to scroll down ...
As someone once said...."Life is not "TheTempest", Neither is it "A Midsummer's Night Dream". It's just "A Comedy of Errors", So take it "As you like it"!

It's our version of a "Who's who" :) We've had fun with it and hope you do too!



Our side of the story


Just for the record


they do work well together...



I'm not sure who's idea this was ...but they're sure not feelin' it!


The options...

And the options again...


who HIM ?


NOT HAPPENING!


NOW you're talking!



(Maria + Isaac) + (James + Roshini) = SANT



P.S. o dear! Mark JUST said, "Let's go make a smoothie, Maria-mom!" NOW where'll we be??!

Where in the world did spring go?

We jumped from about 50 degrees to 96 degrees (10-35 C) in just a little more than 48 hrs. I call that missing out on spring. Sat. & Sun. it was hot an sticky out. Since I have been sitting in the AC of my office all day, I'm not sure what it is doing out there at this moment, but I think it is hot still.

Yesterday, was one of those non stop days. In the morning there was a baptism, where 6 people were baptised. That was awesome to see and so good to be reminded of the covenant I personally have made with God. For lunch all the young couples went to Silver Lake Park for a picnic. Everybody brought a bit of food and what a summer feast we had. : ) Grilled chicken quarters (They were fantastic Ben!), fruit and veggie platters, doritos, chocolate cake... yum... (actually, the choc cake wasn't too bad, which Kris took as a compliment from me seeing as I don't usually like choc cake. Except for Roshini's) Was really really hot, but a very nice time. Twas mine an Isaac's first "couples" event. Pretty cool it was. : ) Still kinda funny to think about though sometimes.

Later that evening, we went to Ang's National Honor Society induction ceremony at school where we met my freshman English teacher who I had 9 yrs ago an Isaac had for drama in middle school about 17 yrs ago. Hehe, she of course remembered him as well, (much to his amazement )and we had a good laugh at how long ago it was. After that, we went to the girls house where we finished off our day with a really nice evening with waffles and strawberries and of course the company of good friends. Thanks everybody for a really great day. P.S. Since I'm at work and don't have my pics with me, I will try to stick a few to go with this post on here a bit later. Hehe, see if that happens. Oh well, at least I wrote something right? : )

P.P.S After work now. Imagine that... I really did get some pics posted. : )













Madison's "funny face" (she'll do it for you if you ask her to)
