I love you

Cay is so cute! She just told me she loves me for no reason. We just watched 'So you think you can dance' and 'Glee.'

Happy Anniversary!

Today Gary and I celebrate 15 years of marriage.  He is an amazing man!  I made this card for him.


You can't have an anniversary card without a few hearts right?  How about three? One for each of our kids.  Besides being an awesome husband, he is a great dad.


Love, love, love (tee hee) the 'You're Amazing' stamp set.  It gives the feeling of a celebration don't you think?


Close up.  Splatters with the squishy ink pen thingy.  Okay, looked it up and it is the 'color spritzer tool which creates a splattered look with your favorite Stampin' write marker.'  I used a little soft suede for the spritzing.


Love you (affection collection stamp set and fabulous phrases stamp set).  Enough said-love my hubby.  Of course more mushy stuff will be added to card.  


What a great day!  Sigh...

Tee hee~

You are unique!


There is no one else in the world quite like each of us.

Devan had a school project where he was to show how unique he is and show his heritage.  Parents had to "help" decorate a paper doll so that the clothes on the doll looked like something our ancestors might have worn.

What ethnicity do we choose???? We are quite a mixture..  We decided on Norwegian.  Here Devan is cutting out his Norwegian Ancestral costume.




Mommy helped with the flag, vest and embellishment on the pants.  Isn't my little guy so cute????

Tee hee~

Devan's birthday invites

It's going to be a power ranger birthday party for Dev.  I tried to get him to have a larger party, but he wants a small one at the house with just a few people.  I even tried to farm out the party to Chuck E. Cheese but Dev has a mascot phobia.  He was on board for a second but I think that Chuck E. Cheese scares him.  What can I say? I don't blame Dev, Chuck E. Cheese is no Mickey Mouse.

Here is Dev's invite.  I totally cheated.  Can't believe I didn't paper craft an invite!  Oh well, I ran out of time!

Here is what I found on the internet:


Look at that cute face!  He is growing up so fast!  I love that little boy!

Here were some other pics I almost used:

So cute!! What you don't see is his Samuraizer.  That is a flip cell phone that he pretends is a device to change him into the blue power ranger.


This was Dev's Halloween costume from last year and seriously he wants to be a power ranger when he grows up.  He cracks me up with how serious he is.  I love the age Dev is right now.

Birthday weekend

Gary's birthday was this past week and we decided to celebrate with going to Santa Cruz beach boardwalk.  We had a blast!!!!  How about visiting some sea lions?  They put on quite a show bickering and chasing each other.  This was the calm before the storm.



The first ride-Giant Dipper





Anna was joking with Cay that she is totally posing.  That is so Cay!



I told the girls to pose like they were Charlie's Angels.  I got "What's that????"  Omg, I am so old!



Dev got to go on Space Racers by himself and did a good job driving.  He totally thought he was driving on the rides and took it very seriously.  Gary and I were cracking up every time.  It seriously didn't get old.



Totally thought he was steering the car.  He actually was turning the wheel in the right direction and did it the whole time.  lol!






I love this picture!  So cute and funny!  How about some more roller coasters?  Check out the girls...







This ride totally scares me.  Every time I am forced to ride it, I about have a stroke feeling like I am going to fall or get stuck up there.  The next ride is Gary's all time favorite ride at Santa Cruz.





Gary is so funny!!! He has his arms out and is totally hamming it up for the picture.



Check out his smile he is so happy!



Beach fun below.  I totally took a nap!











End of the day picture.  Both Cay and Gary were giving Dev love. He was so happy!!!  He loves getting all of the attention!

Smile!

Really Cay?????  You had to be silly!!!  I just want a normal smiling picture.  Here is the kids with Bobby's sister Anna. 


Okay now another try.  Much better.  You guys are cute!


Garlic Brothers

We had a family dinner at Garlic Brothers with Bobby's sister Anna.  It was a nice time, but the food was garlicky! Lol!


This was the view outside the window.  The sun was shining so bright there was a shade during the dinner.  We should have at outside and get a better view of the boats.
