Birthday!

My oldest son turned 10 today.....wow, I can't believe a decade has gone by already since the little lamb was born..............wow, how time flies!!!!!!!!!!! His party is this Friday night and boy will it be fun at an indoor rock climbing place!!!

1st Pedi :)

OK, I am bad uploading from my camera.....but finally did my last month's photos! FINALLY :) Here is Paris' 1st pedicure....and she got a manciure too! Also Tyler's (my brother who I have guardianship of) 1st day at Joy School (he is in the blue shirt). Paris with my roses. And Pixie opening her Easter basket. HA HA :)

OFFICIALLY MOVING!

Finally..........everything went through and we are moving! Signed the papers last night and boy am I glad to have this headache behind us! Since our house in Surprise has not sold yet (which we will probably rent out) it was like pulling teeth to have this new mortgage go through. They needed everything BUT my first born and DNA to complete this paperwork. Wow, the economy and all these default loans are really screwing over the people that can afford to move. Seriously they went through our paperwork with a fine tooth comb. No joke! I guess there is a lot of scams going on also, so lots of verifying and making sure our W2 forms matched our IRS statements. Really over board, but I guess it is better to be safe then sorry if you are the bank. But it is done and with awesome interest rates. So we officially own 2 homes....crazy huh? Here is a photo our the house we are selling in Surprise (grass in front) and the one we bought in Peoria (the double door beige house)....YAY!

36 Day Until

.......our summer starts! Powell, Encinitas, Greece Cruise (which is Spain, France, Italy, Greece & Turkey).............OH HOW I LOVE SUMMER!! Here is a few pics from last summer's travels!

Looking Back.....

Sometimes I like to look back over my photos on my computer and play "remember when" with my kids. Here is what we were looking at today. Thanksgiving 2003. Paris was not even 1 yet!!

HOPPY EASTER

We had a great Easter. Actually 2 weekends of Easter fun...here are some highlights!!

The Cutest Dog in the World?

Yes, it is Pixie Dust and yes she is all mine :) Sorry!!!

Here she is all glammed up in her eyelet dress and pearl necklace. Yes she has her own wardrobe that consists of about 5 outfits so far! And not to mention her 4 different collars we switch with her moods.....

She is 1/2 pug and 1/2 chihuahua...and 100% a princess!

Antelope Point Marina: Lake Powell

Just add water and WA-LA the boat is ready to set sail!!!!

AHOY!

Our new family houseboat is officially launched at Lake Powell!! This is it on dry land last month!

Me, last summer on the beach on Coronado Island...heavenly!!!!!!!!!!!! That place is a slice of heaven.

Oh, it is almost Spring!!!! I just love Easter and all things new! I am still not caught up in my scrapbooks like I should, but sometimes "life happens" and I lose time quickly! My quote for today is "Giving is true having", Charles Haddon Spurgeon.

It's 2007!!! Goal Time :)

It is the 1st month of the new year and I have many scrapbook goals! I need to get caught up on my kids' books and that is my #1 goal. Then I also do some "scrapping for others", so that is always fun too. And I hope to get a bit more organized around here and get a system down for my scrapbooking......2007!!!

October...........Happy Fall Y'All

Clean houses never last, but hugs & kisses do!!
