A Wonderful Birthday.

My cute husband woke up 6:00 am to go to the store to buy the ingredients for breakfast. He even woke up the kids early so they could help him make breakfast for me. It was the best breakfast ever. A new favorite hands down. French toast with raspberries, intense dark chocolate and whipped cream. He even took the time to make me a cute little card. "May this year be the year that you cross the bridge to your dreams and find the happiness you are dreaming for."

A surprise ferry trip to visit to

San Francisco

A self guided tour aboard the Jeremiah O'Brien and a chance to play antique arcade games.

A quick little nap

After a long day, we missed are ferry and had to walk over a mile with tired kids. Luckily we found a very nice guy to give us a bike ride to our pier so we could catch our ferry.(amazingly enough, the bike ride was quite fun)

A great sunset to end the evening and a wonderful presents waiting for me at home,

It was a great day.

Riley Second Birthday

It seems crazy that Riley will be turning 3, and I am just barley posting his last birthday. It is amazing how fast time goes. If you can't tell by the cake, we had a cars party. It was a lot fun celebrating ri-bugs birthday. We spent a few hours at 6 flags discover kingdom, and went home and had his party. We even got a new gas tank, and filled it with root beer and had sandwiches at the pit stop. I think Jeremiah has a good future ahead of him making cakes.

Mommy Wow, I'm A Big Boy Now.

My little boy is finally potty trained. It was a challenge but well worth it. I have been changing diapers for the last 5 years. With the help from his grandmas giving him money and prizes. And the help of Thomas the train underwear. He is now a pro. On Sunday, as I took him to the bathroom, he said " Are there germs on this toilet, are they good germs or bad." I love my Riley bug and can't imagine life without him.

Morgan's Birthday and her Cousins Blessing!!!!

Always waiting

This last year and a half has been a challenging year. A year of growth, tears, stress, happiness, and love. It has been an adventure of new sights and snow free winters.It has been a soul searching year as I try to figure out who I am. It seems that I am always waiting for the right moment, right time to do things, and then I find myself waiting to long. I am that person that always saves a favorite shirt for a special occasion, wears a great looking pair of boots only once, and never wears that one lipstick that I absolutely love but goes with the free gift with purchase. Time goes on and you must go with it and be happy or at least try. As I look past at this last year, I feel like I was missing. I was present but not really there. Trying to adjust to new cities, new friends and new surrounding is not always easy. In fact sometimes I seemed to focus to much on the negative. It seems that I forgot what makes me who I am. As I look forward to the future. My new years resolution is to make ever day that special occasion day. My goal this year is to find out who I am and rediscover myself. I have been frumpy dumpy for way to long. It is time to wear the hair down, put a little more makeup on a regular basis, and wear those special boots.

October Fun
