Sneak Peek

I mentioned that I'm hosting 

"My Favorite Things" party this weekend

and promised a peek at what I'm giving my guests!

Here ya go.

I'll share more pictures after the event!

Here's a peek of me getting ready for date night last night!

Something we don't get to do that often.

It was a school fundraiser and we had a great time!

Don't forget to come back on Monday for a 

FABULOUS giveaway!

Coming to an end and soon to come

Big realization today.

Big changes.

Last night was our last night of Minor League Baseball.

Made it to the Semi-Finals and our boys did a Fantastic job!

Really came together as a team.  Played hard.

Had a great coach & assistant coaches.

Next year boys!

Spring is most definitely over as we head full speed into triple digits!

This was taken at 6:50 p.m. on Tuesday night!  Ugggh.

Hot is an understatement.

School is OUT in less than a week!

Yes, we get out too early and start back in EARLY AUGUST!

Which happens to be the worst month when you live in the desert.......scorching doesn't begin to describe August!

I'm looking forward to having the kids home, not race around every morning and just be able to enjoy them.  

Ask me that again 2 weeks from now ;)

We have some fun activities days away!

Baseball party

and

a

"Favorite Things Party"  I'm hosting!

Can't wait to share what I'm planning!

Maybe a sneak peek later.....hmmmm

Maybe!

AND....

I have a lovely giveaway coming up that you won't want to miss!

Stay tuned!

I joined the Circus

Well, sort of.  I have been absent of all things blog & creative for the past couple of months.  

Why you ask?  Or maybe not.

The best I can come up with is "juggling".

I'm sure like most women or moms.

We juggle.

I don't not mind juggling, but I'm a creature that lives by a schedule.

Can't really do things "fly by the seat of my pants" anymore.

Not since kiddos anyway...except for the occasional last minute frozen yogurt fix :)

Kids get older; schedules are busier!

Right now; other than our normal school activities; we are all about Baseball, swimming, practice, swimming, baseball, practice....I'm sure you understand and have a similar pattern?!

I have also taken on a new job (or two).

I love it.

I get work from home.

No more 4 a.m. wake ups (unless I can't sleep!)

It's new, and exciting and I'm learning!  Lots.

So while all this juggling is happening; I haven't had much me time.

Things I enjoy.....

Making new goodies; checking out blogs and what you've been up to and I miss it.

Lots.

I'm sure I will be able to figure out how to "juggle" more objects/tasks....

Then maybe I will join a circus!

Clown free circus ;)

Celebrations

February is a busy time for us.

Yes, there's Valentine's Day.
{not a big one for us!}

Birthdays!!

Not one, but two birthdays!!

Both within a week of each other
{not on purpose either!}

Our boy turned TEN!

Hard to believe....double digits for our first born.

AND....

Wee One will get to celebrate her birthday on her actual birthday!

She's a Leap Day Baby!!

Lots of party prep!

Lots of pictures to edit.

and I am starting a new job!

Lots of celebrating to be had in the month of February!

Synopsis

It's me again.

Happy New Year!

It's been a while....

Popped in to say hello and give you a picture synopsis of what's been going on!


Basketball season is coming to a close and Baseball tryouts are days away.


Eating MUCH healthier! My family is eating more Vegetarian and enjoying every bit!


Being MORE active! These shoes are a dream!

Out and about enjoying the "scenery"!
Wee one thought this was hysterical. Me....I've got nothin'!

This beauty was just feet away (well, our window was between us!)
A second one was right above him (our son pointed the 2nd out)
He's been spotted a lot as of late.
I was happy to see him so close!

We've had the most amazing January, hardly could call it "winter" here!

Wish it would rain!

A girl can dream.......
