My Cute little English Soldier

One good looking soilder on duty.

My cute little model

In honor of my sister, I decided to update my blog. I am happy to hear that my blog is read. My latest project was to transform one of grandpa's shirts into a dress for Morgan. Well I was off on my measurements because I had a little girl that wouldn't stand still. So my final out come was not a dress for Morgan but a perfect dress for my riley-bug. Morgan was a big help helping me cut the material. I promise my husband that I am not turning him into a girly-boy. I am just a mom that wanted to try on her creation, and Riley happened to be the perfect size.

My two Favorite people gradutated!!!!

I can't believe my little girl is growing up so fast. I had so much fun watching her graduate from her first preschool experience. I am also happy that I convinced her to wear a yellow dress instead of pink. Her teacher did an amazing job, and morgan loved every minute.

Well the time has finally come. Jeremiah graduated from college. It has been a long road, one we have enjoyed but look forward to new things. Jeremiah worked had, going to school full time and working full time, and being a dad full time is not a easy job. But he did an amazing job.

My First Half Marathon!!!

Saturday I accomplished my first half marathon, and I loved it. I had a lot of fun. I wasn't sure how well I would do. On Thursday the a couple of days before the marathon, I ended up getting the flu and a cough to go with it. But I hated not accomplishing my goal. So I decided that I would just do the best I could. I ended up finishing the in 2 hours and 40 minutes. I exceeded my expectations. The race was beautiful, and I had great fans cheering me on. The Best part was running the last part of the race with my beautiful tired daughter. I am looking forward to more half marathons and maybe a full. It was a long day but worth it.

My football baby!

I can't believe my baby is one. It went so fast. Riley-bug loves balls, any type of ball. So for his birthday I thought it would be appropriate to host a ball party. Morgan and I made baseball cupcakes and football tacos. He even used the tennis ball to eat his ice cream. Forget about spoons, who need spoons when you have a ball. It was a small party but it was fun. It has been a great first year with him and I look forward to many more.

My embarrasing moment

Okay, So today while Morgan was at preschool I decided to go to Dillard's and try some new makeup. I usually like getting a makeover and trying different colors. Today was not so great. The So called makeup Representative took an hour doing the makeover. Granted she was helping other people at the same time. I was amazed at how long she was taking. I asked for a everyday to day look, So I am thinking simple. No she put 2 types of foundation on me. My Eye shadow was clear past my eye. Oh and the eyeliner that I thought usually went right above the eye. She put the eyeliner in the crease. The best part was when she did the blush. The first place she started was my forehead, and then around my face, the nose and then the cheeks. She said that it helped focus the attention on my face instead of up and over my head. Well I think that I would of preferred the up and over. The lips got and instant lift with the lip liner way above the lips. But here is the embarrassing part I had to pick up my daughter from preschool, so other mothers saw the amazing look. The first thing out of my husbands mouth was wow, I don't like it. He said that I looked like a clown. Which I can not lie, it was pretty bad. I washed it off immediately, sorry no picture available. So today I was called a clown by my husband and my daughter told me that I was fat. I have no idea where she got that from, but it is not the greatest thing to hear.

Valentines was a huge success

I made it a goal to make the holidays more memoriable and to plan ahead. Usually I have all these great ideas and then the moment comes and goes.

A beautiful breakfast made with love from Miah, isn't he just the cutest. He even practiced before valentines day to make sure he could make the perfect heart pancake.

While Miah did homework and studied for a test we took off and had our own adventure at macy's. There is nothing better than an ice cream cone.

A valentine Surprise for morgan. She loved getting her nails done.

A Special Lunch for Morgan. A walle sandwhich along with the movie.

I know my husband is amazing look at that delicious dinner he made for me.

To finish off the evening I thought a nice chick-flic would be fun with chocolates. Miah has been wanting to watch Arachnophobia. So I rented the movie and morgan and I made chocolate spiders. Romantic I know. It was a fun valentines day. I know that this post is late, but everytime I sat down to finish it something came up.
