Not So Boring Anymore!

So here is our new wall. I am so happy with how it turned out. I really think it gives a finished look to the Living room. My friend Heather has her own Vinyl Business and was able to take the wording I wanted and come up with a really cool design. You can check out her website at www.woodenwordsgallery.blogspot.com, also my friend Jenny took our pictures she is very talented as well. You can check out her website and www.jennyjoyphotography.com. I am ready to start doing another project. I might not want to ended up moving by the time I am through!!! Actually I probably will. HA, Ha.

Fireproof

Pat and I watched this movie last night and I highly recommend it! If you have a great marriage or your marriage is on the rocks it is a great movie to watch! The acting isn't the best but there is so many great messages! You will defiantly look at marriage and life differently!

A boring Wall

OK so here is a really boring wall right when you walk into our house. About a year ago we had my friend Jenny take professional pictures of us on the beach. Well I have finally got around to getting all of our pictures matted and framed!
No more boring wall stay tuned to see what we did!

Caught!



I always catch Presley off doing something mischievous. A couple of days ago she got into my handbag and decided she wanted LIPS on! She looked like such a clown!!! It totally made me laugh and so I couldn't be mad at her.

Happy Valentines Day

Valentines Day was a very laid back day. We took the kids to Target to pick out a leapfrog game and then came home. I made a cake while the kids played. It didn't turn out like I wanted but it was still good. That night we went to my parents house for dinner.
Pat and I celebrated the next evening with dinner downtown Seattle and then we had tickets to see the Lion King! It was a great evening!

Last week we were over in Idaho celebrating my Grandma Juanita's life. She passed away on Wednesday. Though it was a very sad time it was nice to see family that we don't get to see very often. I even met some of my Grandma's sisters and brothers that I have never met before and cousins! The kids had a great time playing with their second cousins!













Bailly Bowl aka Superbowl








Super Bowl Sunday was spent at The Bailly's house. It was a great time. Here is Jenny, Karissa and I sporting the super cool 3-D glasses. Above is the Foot ball cake I made. I think it turned out pretty well. I made the chocolate butter cream frosting and in the center I made a caramel butter cream frosting. It was super yummy!


Build a Bear Workshop








About a month ago we took the kids to Build a Bear. They received gift cards for x-mas so we drove up to Grandpa & Grandma G's house and then headed over to the mall to do some building. What a fun experience plus they thought it was pretty neat to use their build a bear credit cards aka gift cards!!! Here are some cute pictures of the day.

New Years Eve!






My Sister and family came into town New Years Eve. I am so thankful that they left then because New Years Day they shut down the pass and they would have had to stay home. We celebrated Christmas again and the kids had were excited to play with their other cousin.

New Years Day the Girls went out Shopping and the boys stayed home and watched football! It was a pretty relaxing weekend! Here are some pictures of my family and my sisters family!

NoNo and Ethan at Mass



Wow, again I am sooooo far behind on blogging. I have to get off of facebook! It consumes most of my time! LOL! We had a wonderful Christmas! Christmas eve was spent at our house. We had my parents over and we went out to St. Barbara's Church for mass and then came back home for a yummy dinner and presents. The kids had a great time. I think that we finally got them to bed around 11:00 after Papa & Nono left!

Christmas day the kids woke up at 7:30 and were very excited to see that Santa had came while they were asleep! Santa was very good to us this year. Mid-morning we drove up to Pat's parents house for Christmas with the Gerspacher's. It was such a nice day and the kids had so much fun playing with their cousins. We ended up staying the night up at the Gerspacher's because they had quite a bit of snow.
