Baby Shower

My Mom, Sister's, and I hosted my Sister in Law Yvette's Baby Shower on Saturday, December 4th. I just love planning Parties. We had never hosted a Co-ed Baby Shower in the past. It turned out very well. I was surprised to see some Men participate in the games. We had a great time. I can't wait to hold my Niece or Nephew.

I made these Centerpieces!

The Meaning of the Candy Cane

I saw this online, and I just had to share!

The Meaning of the Candy Cane

Many years ago a candy maker wanted to make a candy that would symbolize the true meaning of Christmas - Jesus.

The hard candy was shaped like a “J” to represent that Jesus is our rock of all ages. The candy was made of white to stand for the pureness of Jesus. The red represents the blood that Jesus shed to save us from our sins.

So the next time you see a candy cane take a minute to remember the real meaning of Christmas.

Until next time... Enjoy life, everyday is a blessing!

Thanksgiving Trip

I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! We did something different this year. We drove out to Laghlin, NV. We had a great time. :-) No one had to cook or clean up.

We took the kids bowling after Thanksgiving Dinner. This was Abby's first time bowling. She absolutely LOVED it!

We also went to Oatman in AZ. It's a Ghost Town. It's really neat. There are Donkeys roaming the streets. We bought carrots and fed them. Joey had a blast, Abby wasn't too impressed. LOL!

Until next time... Enjoy life, everyday is a blessing!

Another day at Home...

I'm so thankful to be at home with my kids. It truly is such a blessing. My Little Abby just walked up to me and said "big hug" I could hug her all day. I just had to share, because it's these moments that mean the world to me.

Until next time... Enjoy life, everyday is a blessing!

Awesome Weekend...

We had an awesome weekend. We went to Church, The Beach to take our Family Pictures, and lastly Lombardi Ranch to pick out our Pumpkins. I've posted some pictures. We took over 500 pictures... I have a lot of work to do, to choose which ones I like best. :-)

Tuesday, October 26th was a bit of a rough day. Babe totaled his car. We're so thankful he's okay. He's in quite a bit of pain, but hopefully nothing too serious. It was a pretty scary site. It makes me realize how quickly ones life can change...

Until next time... Enjoy Life, everyday is a Blessing!

Dinner at IHOP

We went out for Dinner this Thursday evening. I wanted Bob's Big Boy, however we were too hungry to drive that far, so we decided to go to IHOP instead. We were the only ones in the Restaurant for a bit, then an older Gentleman came in and was seated in the booth behind Babe and Abby. I told he him that he may want to move because the kids may be a bit too loud for him to enjoy dinner. He said he didn't mind because he had Grandchildren. He later asked how old Abby was, and then Babe asked me. LOL! We told him, and that was that. We didn't speak after that. When we went to pay we were told that the older Gentleman paid for our dinner. I couldn't believe it! They called him Santa Clause. It's amazing how God works!

I just had to share this, because I still can't believe it. I know it was only IHOP, but it's definitely a blessing when someone randomly pays for your food.

Until next time... Enjoy Life, everyday is a Blessing!
