Vote Yes on prop 8

AMAZING!!

So when Jasen did our family pics about a month ago, there was a wedding at the site we wanted to use, and we tried another site...long story short, I asked Jasen if we could re do them at the original site..Tonight we were able to get together.. Jasen took a TON of pics, and here are just a few he edited. I totally LOVE the few I've seen so far and I know these are the ones! I cant wait to see the rest. Thanks Jasen!!

The Best Dentist Ever

This morning I had to take Haley and Olivia to the dentist to have a cavity filled. I have to say that I was soooo impressed with how well they did. I LOVE our dentist Byron Reintjes! Chris an I have known Byron and Suzanne for a long time and in fact used to babysit their kids while they would vacation. Anyway, we've been going to Byron for a while, but the girls have never had to have a shot there. I was not too optimistic about how the girls would do because Haley especially is HORRIBLE about shots. I was so impressed. Byron was amazing. Neither girl cried at all. Byron is really good with kids and the girls weren't scared at all. I also will say that in all the years we've gone to Byron, we've never waited longer than 5 minutes to be seen. He runs an awesome organized practice, and is a great dentist!

Shopping

Yesterday I had the chance to take a quick trip to Tulare outlets to shop with friends. It was Krista's birthday, and what better way is there to celebrate but shopping. We had tons of fun and bought lots of fun stuff!

Chris and Haley

Today Chris and Haley sang their duet. I came down with some crazy 24 hour bug and was completely bedridden since last night. I was absolutely devastated to have missed it, but I was told that they did perfect. I'm so proud of them.

Fun with friends

Today I had fun hanging out with my two gorgeous friends Kelly and Rebecca. We three have know each other for 9 plus years. It was a blast to be able to catch up and just hang out for a bit. Rebecca and I helped Kelly set up a blog. I only wish I had more time to hang out with friends. Thanks for a fun afternoon girls!

Vote yes on Prop 8

This is a short video describing what has happened in Massachusettes where same sex marriage has been legalized. It is so important that we vote yes on prop 8 to mantain the sanctity of marriage to be between one man and one woman, and so that as parents, we have the right to know what our children are being taught in school.

Chris and Haley

Here's a new video of Chris and Haley running through the song they're going to sing on Sunday. They still have a little work to do, but I think they will be fantastic! I'm so excited for Sunday!

Friends that are Family and Family that are Friends

Fun day

Yesterday, our friends the Master's had a wedding to shoot, and needed someone to watch their kids. Well, I was available and happy to have their babes over for the day. Hannah and Michael are a joy. Liv was THRILLED to have Hannah over. While Michael napped, Liv and I watched Hannah's soccer game. Then I took all the kids to Mcdonalds to play and have dinner. We came home, had baths, made cookies, and I put them to bed. Liv and Hannah were so cute. They wanted to sleep in the bed together. Jasen and Jennifer came to pick them up around 9:30, and I think Hannah and Liv had just fallen asleep. They had been up giggling until just before that. I love that Liv has such a sweet friend.

The Fire Station

This morning I went with Liv on her first field trip. We had so much fun! The field trip was quick and we got home earlier than expected so I was able to come home and put together a few quick pages before the other girls are out of school.
