Happy Birthday to me!

I turned 25 this year and I still can't believe it. I know it's silly but I feel so old! lol! This year I spent the day playing with my sweet boy, lunch at Oreganos with my sweet hubby, and then dinner and games with my great family! It was a great birthday!

Happy 1st Birthday Brady!

I can't believe that my baby is 1! It seems like just yesterday that I was pregnant....Wow this year went fast! Here are some pictures from his birthday!

Birthday morning getting his gift...ball pit! He LOVES balls!

"This is so fun!"


"I got 2 balls, I got 2 balls, I got 2 balls hey, hey!"


Sportin' some shade like a movie star!


Brady's ball pool....he quickly was getting the balls all over the house so we got a pool for the other room which he also loved!


Homemade Blues Clues cake!


I made this for Brady to eat any way he wanted too! :o)








Yay Presents!





He was so excited when he opened Blue up! Big Kisses!


He loved the party blow horns!


Right before I cleaned him up..yummy!

Happy 21st Birthday Chelci! We love you!

My brother's sweet girlfriend, Chelci, turned 21 on October 8th! I couldn't have hand picked a better person for my brother or a better new sister for me. I love Chelci and am so glad she is a part of my family! So of course I got to make another birthday cake and was so excited to make my first cake with frosting roses! I think it turned out cute...she loved it! I did a pattern in frosting and the frosting roses because she loves frosting! Happy birthday Chelci!!

Mexico trip Oct 3-5th

For an early birthday trip we all went down to Mexico and enjoyed some perfect weather and a beautiful beach! It was a great trip and a much needed relaxing weekend!

Happy 25th Jenn!!

My sweet friend Jenn turned 25 and to celebrate the occasion I of course had to make her a birthday cake, so after our yummy dinner at Oreganos we went back to my house for her surprise cake! I love you Jenn! Happy Birthday!

Wildlife Zoo and Aquarium

Friends of ours, Ricky and Tiera, got Buy 1 get 1 free coupons to the Wildlife Zoo and Aquarium so we all went. It was fun! A little too hot of course being AZ but overall a good time. Our favorite part was the aquarium. Brady loved to watch all of the fish swim buy. He sure tried to get them! It was fun and tiring!

Happy Early Birthday to me!

My parents gave me an early birthday present in September...tickets for my mom and I to go and see "Legally Blonde" at Gammage. It was so fun!! I of course wished I had a pink dress to wear or some snazzy pink shoes but I wasn't going to go out and spend money we don't really have...so I improvised! I had these old hot pink flip flop heels so I decided to "Elle Woods" them! Meaning...I added bling on the heels and on the tops I tied a pink bow on each shoe (sorry no picture of the bows) I think they turned out so cute! I felt very Elle Woodish wearing them with a black dress and hot pink accessories! I had such a great time with my mom! She's the best!
