Mia's First Dance Recital!

We passed a huge milestone today in little Mia's life as we attended her first dance recital! As a parent, I LIVE for these little moments. I was beaming ear-to-ear as I watched her up on the stage doing her little 'Cuddle Cub' dance! She could have been doing the hokey-pokey and I couldn't have been more proud! Mia is quite the little performer and I foresee many a more dance recitals in her future! SO PROUD OF YOU PIA!!!

Father & Son Campout

Roy and Max attended the annual Father & Sons Camp-out @ the Silver Strand State Beach. Roy said all Max wanted to do was put sticks in the fire...ALL NIGHT! (We may have a pyro on our hands!?) Only a couple more years and little Vanner will be right there with them! YAY for BOYS!!

Hulk Boobies?

Max: "Mom, where's the tape?"
Me: "Why do you need tape Max?"
Max: "I need to tape my boobies on"
Me: "What do you mean you have to tape your boobies on?"
Max: "Mom, I can't be the Hulk without boobies!"
Me: "Alrighty then...."



Earlier today:
Mia: "Mom, how do squirrels toot?"
Me: "WTF?"

Happy Mothers Day

It was a picture perfect Mothers Day picnic down at Salt Creek! I had a very relaxing weekend with girlfriends (minus children! It was DREAMY!!!!) and got to sleep in Sunday morning! It was such a TREAT! Being a mom has been one of the most challenging, stressful and REWARDING things I have ever done! I give so much credit to my own mom who did such a fabulous job in raising three AMAZING (if I do say so myself!) kids! I strive every day to be like her! She is the BEST!!! I love you MOM!

Happy Birthday Roy!

Pool. Food. Cheescake. Family. That's the perfect recipe for a fabulous birthday get together! Happy B-day Roy:) XOXO

Cuddle Cubs!

~Look at those EYELASHES!!!
So Mia and her cousin Ruby had to take their dance pictures the other day (Recital is Memorial Day weekend!) and so I had to get Mia all dolled up! All I can say is the girl has the most AMAZING long eyelashes(thank you milk man for those!) I barely put any mascara on them and they look as though the kid has fake ones on! SO JEALOUS!
