My Kiddos and I - Week 18

4th Birthday, done hula style!

This Saturday was filled with more great birthday memories for my sweet CJ. We had gone back and forth for a bit with Little Miss Opinionated about what theme she liked best. After all that debating, she got the idea for a "Hula" party, as she called it, so that's what we went with. To add to Carmen's excitement, her birthday was the same day as the party, and who doesn't enjoy celebrating on their actual birthday? That rocked.

So thankful and blessed with this little gal who makes us laugh. Every. Single. Day. Love you, CJ. Here is wishing you many, many, many more to come!

My Kiddos and I - Week 17

Another Hoppy Easter

Our Easter (or easters, for you nacho libre fans) was of course spent with our families, and we of course enjoyed every last bit of the day. We started out bright and early for the 8am (yowza) mass, which was SUPER packed. (Thanks to those C&E church goers, LOL.) Our festivities of the day included lots of cascarones (confetti eggs!), lots of great food on the grill, and a surprise visit from the Easter Bunny, or, er - the Easter Bunny's wife, 'cause with her hat and apron she was clearly a gal bunny. :)

Who is more cuddly? JR or the Easter Bunny?

THE best $1 I ever spent, got CJ that pink hat in the dollar section at Tarjay for her Easter basket and she LOOOVED it.
