Wishing Everyone a Happy Holiday!

I heard a little rumor...

Cafe Rio is finally here! Opening day is Dec 28th! I don't know if it's being pregnant or what, but I've been craving this since the day I heard it was coming to town (like a year ago!) I hope it's still as good as I've been remembering from my Utah days...and dreaming of!

I think for sure the next Cafe Rio should be in Huntington Beach! I'd go every day!

Oh Santa Clause...

A picture is worth a thousand words...


Ho Ho Ho...

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree!

We are so excited to have a real Christmas tree this year and to be in our own home! Last year we were moving around, and it is so nice to have a home to decorate and put up a tree in! Maddy had so much fun at the Christmas tree lot running around through all the baby trees...

She was so excited to have one of her favorite people ever Noah to come play with her and help pic out trees! Maddy loves hugs!

Luckily we found a great tree! There wasn't many this year on the lot. Our poor neighbors went home empty handed... guess they were just not as quick as Tony...
Family Portrait with our tree. I didn't realize I was being swallowed up by the tree, but maybe it's a good thing! My belly is getting pretty big!

Cheeeeese!

Decorating the tree...

balls, balls, balls... one of Maddy's new favorite words..

Happy Holidays everyone!

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year... Almost!

Just a little sneak peak of my little dancing queen in her new Holiday dress! We are trying to be early instead of late this year on Holiday cards...

Can't wait for the Holidays to arrive!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween 2009 So Far...

We went to Tanaka Farms a couple weeks ago with our neighbors...

Maddy loved trying to pick up all the pumpkins! She loves climbing too... She was in heaven with all the pumpkins and hay to climb on...Happy Birthday Jonas... Maddy loved the bounce house at Jonas' big birthday bash...

Facepainting... She wasn't so sure about, but looked sooo cute!Maddy had no fear when the Creature Teacher came and was trying to hug and squeeze all the lizards, sat on the turtle...
Wanted to take home the giant snake...

Trunk Or Treat with our friends the Child Family...Maddy's practice run for getting all the candy on Halloween. She pulled out sucker after sucker wanting us to unwrap it so she can get one taste and move on to the next one...

Today we went to another pumpkin patch with Maddy's friend Brynlee... They loved the little rides...

This was Maddy's favorite, she couldn't wipe the grin off her face the whole time!And of course Maddy had to hug all the pumpkins in her own cute little way of hugging... putting her head on them...Can't wait to see what fun Halloween day will bring! Happy October!

Sorry daddy...

Now you are really outnumbered!

We definitely thought it was a boy, but we were wrong! Even though, we are still super excited! We love little girls and now we don't have to paint the bright pink room the girls will be sharing, and we will have plenty of clothes and girly things for this little baby! Maddy will be such a great big sister! Thought we'd share the news!

Inspirational Message...

I got this off of my friend Heather's blog header. She just passed away this week after a long almost 3 yr battle with cancer. I thought it was appropriate to post this message. Heather was an inspiration to so many people! She was beautiful inside and out. Our prayers are with her family right now, she left behind a husband, a daughter, a son, and so many wonderful family members and friends...

"Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows." Thomas S. Monson

Our Wierd Cat

Yes he is way to fat for Maddy's doll's stroller, but there he was... Maddy was bumping him into walls, corners, couches, but there he sat. Crazy Mungo...
