Best Halloween book


I got this book for Jakob last year. I read it to him every Halloween. I think I found it funnier than he did. It is such a reminder for me of what I remember about Halloween as a kid. If you haven't read it yet you need to get it.

Back in the groove of things

I have been so busy these past two weeks. We finally found a place to call our own. And I have been trying to get my life back in some kind of order. So now that all the boxes are unloaded and things all have their place. I can begin to get back to the normal routine around here. Well the other day we attended a fundraiser for the YWCA which helps women of domestic abuse. They held it at the Hollywood Connection as you can see the boys had a lot of fun. This was the boys first time roller skating.

Fall is here


Some of my favorite things about fall approaching
-The cold weather
-The warm clothes
-The holidays approaching
-The smell of the crisp air
-The trees changing colors
Most people don't enjoy the cold weather or the rainy days during fall, but there is nothing better than being able to get in your pajamas curl up on the couch with a blanket wrapped around and watching movies and drinking hot chocolate.

I LOVE FALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Must Read



If you haven't read this book you need to. I just finished reading it and I loved it.
It had me laughing 99.9% of the time. I love how honest and truthful this book is about motherhood.

Doing so much, so little time

Well we have been up to a lot of stuff. I've been so busy. James is really enjoying his job he works for VCBO Architeture Co. He is in charge of their Marketing Department. We have been doing a lot with family. We just recently went to the Greek Festival and it was so much fun. We have never been and thought we should check it out. I think the boys enjoyed the greek dancers the best.

BBQ with Friends

We got invited out to a BBQ that Audrey's mom was having. We had really good food and it was nice to catch up with my best friend Audrey and her family. I really miss Audrey. But we plan on seeing each other every six months. Also a big thank you to Verna and Jose for having us over.







Together again

We were so excited when we found out that Audrey, Tony, A.J. and logan were coming to U*. We had to see them. We went with them to the Natural History Museum. As you can tell they enjoyed spending time with each other.

Fun, Fun, and more Fun

Me and my sisters decided to take our kids to the park. We went to a bird show, then we went on some amusement rides that were at the park.


































And what would be a day at the park without being able to play in the water and get wet.
