Ponies!!

I remember how excited I was when Addi sported her first pony. The difference this time around is that I had patience on my side. (Shocking, right?) I was patient enough to wait until I could get two (meager) ponies into Preslee's hair. She was a champ about the whole thing. I've only done it a few times since... Kelly says to not put pony tails in her hair too often because it will break her hair and take longer for it to grow out. But, I LOVED the ponies and made Pres brave the heat with me to take a few pictures. (This decision was made after we tried a few inside by the sliding glass door that was SO filthy you could see the filth in the pictures... It does get cleaned... promise!)

Time...

About 7 1/2 years ago Bryan and I stood in this exact same spot... taking wedding pictures. Never did I imagine I would bring my kids back here with each trip to San Diego. And never did I imagine I would have a little cutie with clear blue eyes, curly dark hair, more sass than anyone I know, and a gut like that. Man, I love her!

Long Awaited....

This was a VERY long awaited day. My amazingly awesome, super duper talented, extremely entertaining, and awfully opinionated uncle Cory got married to someone equally as outstanding and unique as him. We all went to San Diego for the weekend (WITHOUT KIDS!! WOOHOO) for the celebration. I can honestly say that this was the coolest wedding I've been to. The venue was so COOL! It was so THEM; beautiful and one of a kind. I felt very lucky and honored to be a part of their special day. As you can tell, there were way too many pictures that I loved. And this is narrowing it down. I love family. There's nothing like it in the world. The only thing missing was my Grandpa... and I know he was there in spirit... probably prodding Lexine to not back out. ;) (although she'd be a fool to back out. Cory's so awesome.) Now I just need some new little cousins!! hehe!




Still Missed...


I must admit, I have teased my sweet Grandma and told her that it was cheaper to put ALL the info on the head stone at once so we had to fill in her death date when my Grandpa died. I told her we put 2011 so she has a year and half to croak so we don't have to fix it. :) While I think she's anxious to return home to be with her eternal companion, I'm not quite ready to let her go.
