On a scale of 1 to a million, He gets a...

Sunday was our anniversary, so Friday Bill brought me these lovely roses. 2 dozen this year. He told me I was only going to get a dozen so I was suprised.

Then yesterday I had a little bit of a "blue" day, so he suprised me with the blue flowers after work to cheer me up! Isn't he awesome! So thoughtful and so romantic. I love my guy!

Happy Anniversary Bill!

I love you at least 12 times over. I never imagined the kind of husband you would be, but you are living up to my wildest dreams. You are my biggest supporter, my best friend and thank you for allowing me to run wild after my crazy dreams. Thank you for 12 wonderful years!

Kindergartners are Brave!

We are counting down the days until school starts and mom is an "empty Nester." James' isn't so excited about kindergarten. So each day I have been making some comment about him going to kindergarten. As I was kissing him last night I said, "Love you my little kindergartner!" And he says to me, "Mom, I can't be a kindergartner. Kindergartners are brave and I'm not brave." LOL! I can't wait for the first day of school.

Jedi Training Academy 1

He was so excited to be chosen, I don't think he was actually listening to the instructer.

James was in Hog Heaven to have been selected and then to get to fight Darth Vader

Disneyland

Disneyland was so fun! Billie and James were finally able to ride most of the rides. They loved all the splashy, scary, jolty rides. James asked us every 20 minutes if we can go back for his birthday in the fall. Riding the carousel in Fantasy Land. I am holding onto Maddie and James. Yes my hair is pink! I love it. Felicia (my stylist) did a great job with it!
Bugs life~visiting with the ants.
Mr. Toads wild ride. It was pretty crazy. Good thing toads can't really drive.
Saying hi to Max at Goofy's Kitchen where we ate breakfast with the characters.
Waiting for the Fantasmic show. It was incredible. I would have to say this was my favorite thing. It was put on over the river's of America. They had these amazing misting fountains, which they projected images onto the water. It was really cool. Very worth the long wait to get great seats!

Family Reunion

We had a great time on our family vacation. Big Bear was such a nice change from the desert heat. The road up to Big Bear was a bit of a challenge though. 4 out of 6 in the car suffered from motion sickness.

Here we are having a "vomit stop." No one actually threw up, but most of us felt like it. Hunter didn't feel sick but "wanted to try just in case." I guess we were rubbing off.

Bill didn't have to vomit either, but he wanted to check out the view.

We went to a really neat "zoo." It was a rescue/rehabilitation zoo. Basically it was a last chance for most of these animals. We went on the feeding tour and learned some really interesting info about the animals that they keep here.

Swimming was a daily activity. The kids stood in line to get thrown by dads and grandpa.

Chestin's family doing their skit "Where's My Important Papers?" It was a totally "fun" activity. :-)

Billie's Birthday Party was a huge success. We made homemade lip gloss, door knob hangers, little heart shaped necklace charms, ate gigantic flower cupcakes and watched the sing along version of High School Musical.

The party girls with their cupcakes. It was a great night!

See you all next time!
