Two Wheelin'

We've been talking about taking the training wheels off for a while now. Casey decided to give it a try last night right before bedtime at the park across the street. He literally took off the training wheels, let go of her and she was off....no problems! We were all so excited. (Heidi was a little jealous...I don't think she'll be far behind). Now we just need to work on braking and getting started herself. Go Kyla!







Mother's Day 2012


love.


I love when I pull out old outfits that were some of my favorites from the past. That happened today. Here is Kyla at 18 months and here is Molly at 15 months. Love these girls.

Cinco de Mayo Engagement Party!

Loreen (my sister-in-law) and Fernando are getting married. And to celebrate my mom gave them a Cinco de Mayo themed engagement party. It was very festive! Friends, family, cervezas, tacos, cute decor, margaritas, and these adorable bride and groom bobble heads...

I got to play photographer once again and did a mini engagement session before the party. These are a few of my favorites. Stay tuned for more wedding festivities...especially since this wedding will have five little bell flower girls- sure to make for some cute pictures. 


T-ball


Heidi played her first t-ball game yesterday (or as Kyla says she played her first Tennis game yesterday). :) She was super cute with her little team shirt and batting helmet. We had fun watching her. The team is made up of 3 and 4 year olds, since she's a little over a month away from being five I think she's the oldest on the team. It's pretty funny to watch all the kids try to figure out this game.


Enzo and Pearson are on the team too. That makes it extra fun.




Go Heidi! It's going to be a fun season!

I'm back!

I have had a few friendly reminders that I have been lagging behind in my blog posts. Well, its not without good reason. In that time I have moved again. From one temporary home to my mom's. We packed up our clothes and some toys and moved houses again. We are continuing our house hunt- praying that something happens soon.

After that we headed out a on a mini-vacation. I got two lovely days in Arizona alone with my husband. It was wonderful. It rained the first morning and I had a little bit of a freak out on the weather but it turned out beautiful and we had a great time. 

I barely used my camera. 

We decided since the weather wasn't great for laying by the pool we would take a hike up Camelback Mountain. Casey's dad said it shouldn't be a problem and that it was a nice hike. We set out at about 11am after a detour (we were talking, I was navigating, and I got distracted, it cost us an extra forty minutes in drive time). With nothing in my stomach, except one cup of coffee, no water bottles, and my bulky camera bag because I was afraid it might start raining on us- we head out on our "hike". 

It was grueling to say the least. It was more of a mountain climb than a hike and about 3/4 of the way to the top I just couldn't do it. Mostly I was afraid of feeling sick for the rest of the day. So we turned back. 

We decided to try again the next day. This time full stomachs, water bottles in hand, no camera, no phones. And we made it...barely. It was hard. Two lizards ran out of some rocks when I put my hand on one to climb up. Nothing grosses me out more than reptiles.
It was an adventure. And fun. And the only pictures I have of the trip....
