Our New House

Yeah right but a girl can dream right??? I went through some model homes with my Mom and we fell in love with this family room and this kitchen. Two separate homes but they fit together so well. Someday we can have cool houses right? I really need to take some pictures of the house we do live in though. It is really nice. I feel spoiled.























Check out this kitchen. It has so many cupboards in it I would actually have empty ones. How cool would that be!!!

11 Years Later

Well the time has come. JJ and I have officially been married for 11 years. I can not believe it. We were such babies, what were we thinking!!!
I can say however that 11 years later, I really love him a lot more than I did then, and I sure loved him a lot then.

We met many moons ago when we were really just mere babes. Yes we were so young that I am surprised he didn't run away from me because I had cooties or something. We started dating after the Mission. And now here we are a few pounds heavier but all the more in love.

Here are somethings we have learned about each other over the years:

1. Becky can't produce female offspring. (JJ sure doesn't help with this either.)
2. JJ does love jello.
3. Becky doesn't like newborn babies.
4. JJ loves to eat cereal at all hours, both day and night. But at least he has learned to put the milk away.
5. Becky doesn't mind using the bathroom with the door open.
6. JJ still likes the door closed.
7. Becky likes a clean front room and could careless about the bedroom. (Who sees it anyway.) JJ likes a clean bedroom. (Yet he still leaves his clothes on the floor or the chair, go figure)
8. Becky gets more beautiful everyday.
9. JJ is by far the hottest man in the universe!!!
10. Becky has stinky feet.
11. JJ loses his wallet and keys on a regular basis. I should have picked up on this one right from the start. (That's another story.)
12. Becky tries but is not very "girly" with clothes and hair and stuff like that.
13. JJ needs a closet twice the size as mine for all his clothes and shoes etc...
14. Becky is always willing to go the extra mile for her friends.
15. JJ can be the biggest goofball, but, he is also the most caring and loving man I have ever been married to, he is also the best Dad a kid could ask for.
16. Becky is not as romantic in nature as I am, but she is my best friend in the world and cant imagine me without her. I just love her to bits!

How'd you get so cute? Look at my Aunt Fany

My family had a family reunion this last weekend. It was so fun. We played, ate, swam and drove all over. I will show you pictures of my family as soon as we get them. This is on the dock of Lake San Vicente when the favorite Aunt, Aunt Fany showed up. All of "her babies" (that's what she calls them all) ran up to hug her. Okay so Elli (the little baby) didn't run up to see her, but her mommy did.

Here are the three amigos. Axel, Bryce and AJ. We could not for the life of us get the three of them to look at the camera all together. But we sure had fun trying.

Beach Time

And of course what is California without the beach. The boys loved it!! (Even though that started out the morning complaining that they didn't want to go.) The cute little girl in the picture is my niece Brynnly. She loved to play with the boys. However I think she still had sand in her hair two days later.

Gunnar's Birthday

Gunnar turned 6 this month. He had a little party at his Grandma and Grandpa's house. The dark head boy you see is his cousin Jeffrey and his cousin Aiden was there too but he fell asleep.









He got everything he wanted plus more.
















This is a transformer gun that he received from his Aunt Kimmie. I believe this won the prize for the best present ever.












However this is the face we were looking for when Daddy brought out his new bike. He was soooo excited. What a lucky kid.

And he is off....

To get you up to speed with our littlest dude, Axel decided to start crawling about two days before we moved from Ohio. Now he is all over the place and loving life. I am so glad we live in a one story house!!!
