We came home to our little lovies today. They had decorated the front door to welcome us back and written about 20 other notes that were strewn all through the house. We missed them like crazy but had an amazing trip. We will definitely be going back one day!:)

We spent the day golfing and reading and lying on the beach. It is beautiful!

HAPPY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY to us!
I can't believe ten years has already gone by. It is crazy. And what a wonderful ten years it has been. I could never have imagined anyone better to be married to.

day 137: May 17th

We are in CABO today! Just me and the hubby. It is wonderful. And warm! And beautiful. And we are loving it!

Guess who does not sleep with binkies anymore!?? You got it. This kid threw them all in the garbage and slept without them for a week in order to get a "zoobie". (In case you were wondering, a zoobie is a stuffed crocodile that turns into a pillow OR a blanket.) It came in the mail today. He sat outside waiting for that mailman all afternoon and was giggling hysterically as he opened his package. He has only asked for those binkies once or twice since he stopped sleeping with them. It was a lot easier than I had anticipated! I should have done it a long time ago!! Who knew a zoobie would take care of the darn binkie problem?!

day 135: May 15th

Got to do a commercial shoot for one of my good friends today. She has just started an Etsy store and sells the most darling earrings. Go check them out! It is called hooplahoopla.

day 120: april 30th

There really are no words. The pictures pretty much says it all.

day 119: April 29th

This picture does not even remotely do the snow justice. We literally woke up to eight inches of snow on the ground this morning. It is the end of April. The END of April!! This is getting slightly ridiculous and I am more then ready for WARM weather.

He is getting so big that I can't really consider him a little boy any more. It makes me so sad. But at the same time I have loved seeing the person he is starting to become. He really is growing up. And becoming someone that I am ridiculously proud of.

day 131: May 11th

The boys had their final piano recital of the year today.
Jake played Zip-a-dee-do-da
On Top of Old Smoky
Mickey Mouse March
Cole Played Zip-a-dee-do-da
Chopsticks (his favorite)
BINGO
They are sad they are done for the summer and are begging their teacher to have lessons next month and in July. They have come a long way considering Jake did not want to play at all this year. He only wanted to learn the guitar so he can become a rockstar.

day 130: May 10th

My sweet baby with his favorite colored balloon in one hand and his fishing pole in the other.
He makes me happy.

Most of our lives are a series of images, they pass us by like towns on a highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever. - Lucas Scott

day 128: May 8th

The joys of being a mother: having a leaf shoved in your eye and another kid pulling your hair out of your head and who knows what the third one is up to at the moment. Happy Mother's day to all.

day 127: May 7th

Jeff took the boys to a rugby game today. Of course I send along my camera and these are the only two pictures he takes. Typical. The boys loved the game and watching the hits those guys would take. I heard about it for the rest of the day.

day 126: May 6th

We decided to use this on the front of their wedding video. I am pretty sure they will enjoy the arranged marriage just for the fact that they will have the cutest children of all time!:)

day 125: May 5th

This little kid scored two goals at his soccer game today. One of which, he threw in. He was pretty excited about that one as no one else on his team had ever done that before.

day 124: May 4th

day 122: May 2nd

Crew and Cole's favorite thing to do is hide from our pa when he gets home from work. Crew has not quite figured out we can still see him even if his eyes are closed!

day 121: May 1st

I know Easter is over, but we had an easter egg hunt today with all of the cousins since we were out of town last week. Crew was scared to go outside until we informed him that the Easter bunny would not be coming to the party.

day 118: april 28th

Ahhh. What an insanely crazy week it has been. And not so much in a good way. My plan was to get caught up on ALL of my editing. Obviously that has not happened. First, smart person that I am, I left my battery charger in California. So, no camera because there is no charger to be found until the end of the week in any of the stores. Monday rolls around and my computer won't start. 2 1/2 years of pictures gone forever. The mac specialists could not fix it. I will admit, I cried. And was sick for two days straight. Luckily, I found an AWESOME disc recovery specialist and he was able to save all the important things on it for me. My week got immensly better from that time on. My only problems now is that I don't have photoshop or a usable computer at the moment. SO. That means no editing or any work done for me. I have taken advantage after the stress out episodes and am enjoying not working for the moment. Because next week, we will be playing catch up all over again!


Like fathers like sons, or so they say. Apparently the competition starts at a fairly young age!

Just another day to play at Superman

(don't you love the spit you can see flying out of his mouth? Makes you wonder what you ate when he blew the candles out on his birthday cake.)

day 115: april 25th

We got to spend the day at the tide pools in southern california today. We found lots of treasures! (Cole was in heaven with all the buried treasure he found. For example. The dead crab. That he wanted to take home. And the other dead crab legs that he did take and stunk up the hotel room for the night. We could not figure out where the dead fish smell was coming from. It was Cole's bucket. Needless to say, the bucket did not get brought home.)



(I know it is so random how I am posting these. My computer memory is 100% full and I have had six sessions to edit and so all of my everyday pictures have taken a back seat to be downloaded. I did find this one though and thought I would post it. Hopefully I can catch up and upload the rest in the next day or two. Fingers crossed!!)

day 114: april 24th

Happy Easter Sunday.
