girl time...
This past weekend was this lil mommy-to-be's baby shower!! ....which in turn means..lots of girls, lots of hugging, lots of laughing, possible tears, lots of food....and of course lots of pictures!
I couldn't be more excited for her. These 3 sisters are gorgeous!...(thats not the only reason I claim them as my sisters)...I love these ladies..it was so fun to see everyone!



*Look at us...we are all growned up.....it was soooo fun to be with my bestest friends...(minus one)

Happy Valentines Day!!

Looks who's 5!
Our lil munchkin had a birthday! He has been talking about his #5 birthday for the last 12 months~Everyone we talked to he would invite to his birthday...including store clerks, other shoppers, mailman, perfect strangers.....and family & friends of course! He is my social butterfly! He is such a fun lil man, with an awesome personality!! He has a great imagination!! He keeps me on my toes, and laughing at the same time!! I am never surprised at the things he says and does!! We had a fun party at the park with a HUGE 'Spiderman' pinata, a 'Ninja Turtle' cake, and lots of kids! We love you!! Happy Birthady bud!!

Christmas Vacation....
ok, so here it goes...the morning after Christmas...bright and early..we headed to California to see my fam!! It was sooo much fun!! We got see see my nephew that got home from his mission, and see my other one before he leaves! We had a big post Christmas dinner at my brothers with the whole fam, with an intense game of RISK!...which in turn set a pattern for many for late nights, of intense games...of RISK! I think Matt holds the title for now...but thats ok...(keep practicing rolling those dice..haha). We spent some time with my pop dad, which is always great! We let the kids run wild in his yard, and loved it!! We even got to see my uncle Kevin and aunt Camille! My other nephew took us to eat at some cool lil place at the end of Avila pier. It was even warm enough for the kids to play at the beach! We took the kids on a lil drive down the beach too...which they loved! The boys got to go to the shooting range, and the girls got pedicures!! Everything was perfect! We cant wait to plan our next trip!

Merry Christmas!

here are our 3 munchkins on Christmas eve in their "Christmas eve jammies" they got to open....before heading to bed of course! They were all soo cute and excited!! Everyone was thrilled with what Santa brought them the next morning and couldnt be happier!! Christmas wouldnt be Christmas without the little ones! They bring so much excitement and magic to the holidays!! (Ill post more pics later)

December Doings......
We have stayed pretty busy over the last few weeks...This month has gone by really fast! so, in between the normal craziness, we threw in some holiday fun too...besides seeing Santa a few times, and going to the usual town holiday festivities...we've managed to make a gingerbread house(it lasted a day, the candy all got devoured), we made some frosted sugar cookies (the kids did everything for 'their' cookies..all except putting them in the oven)..and we even had a tiny bit of snow! December wouldnt be complete without at least a tiny bit of snow (even if it does have allot of dirt in it!)....

Between her singing and her dancing,....and her super cool sunglasses...how could you not smile! Im sure Ill be posting more soon...so keep checking!
