Breaking Dawn Concert!

Ok you can all laugh but you know deep down inside you wish you could have been there too! ha ha. I found out that Stephenie Meyer was making a stop in Seattle with singer Justin Furstenfeld from Blue October for her Breaking Dawn book release and figured it would be a good excuse to get out and do something fun. I dragged my friend Jen along who hasn't even read the books yet but she has heard about the hype and we had a girls night out and it ended up being so fun! Justin is an amazing singer and guitar player and Stephenie answered some burning questions from the audience.

You can't hear it very well but Stephenie talks about other characters in twilight that are dying to be heard! maybe Jacob or Renesme? She also talks about maybe doing a ghost story in the future.

Stephenie said she was driving in her car and Edward spoke to her it was the scene in the meadow where he says goodbye to Bella and this was the song dedicated to that scene! sort of weird but whatever. we still had fun!

Ava's Baby Blessing!

We finally got around to doing Ava's baby blessing. I know she is a year old but better late than never right? I wanted to do it when we were in Utah since both our families our down here. Tj can never stay long because of work but I decided it was time and we cramed in a weekend full of events.

My sister April and Ava.

The Whole Family.

Birthday Party Number Two!

Here's a few pics from Ava's second birthday party! Aunt Hilary wanted to throw her one while we were down in Utah with all the family. It turned out great!

Of course we had to have another chocolate fountain!

Here's Tj and his good friend and cousin Adam and there adorable son A.J.

Of course when it came time for the cake she threw another fit!

This is my cute neice zoey! She wanted to try on all of Ava's clothes she got and then decided to put on some of grandma's makeup! very cute!

Happy Birthday Ava!!!

I cannot believe it has already been a year! The time has flown by! Last Saturday Kristi, Sarah and I had a polka-dot themed Birthday party for our kids since they are only weeks apart. We had lots of fun planning it well I did! We had a water balloon toss/water fight, we had all the kids bobb for apples, and a fun little pinata! Ava didn't get a great nap in the morning so by the time it came for the cake she was done for! and wanted out.
My blog is being retarded too. I can't figure out how to add as many photos as I want without having these big spaces in between so if anyone knows how to fix it feel free to let me know. thanks.

The Party Planners

Grandma Pugmire flew up for the big event!

The Birthday Kids!

Love that tired little face!

Ava Loved her dora powerwheels she got from grandma and grandpa pugmire!

Exhausted!!









1 year old and still can't get enough of her jumperoo!

Happy Birthday Princess!

Few weeks old!

Almost 1 years. They grow up way too fast!

You Are Jasmine!

Independent and adventurous. You don't want much; just to break out of the guilded cage society has put you in and experience life to the fullest. Following orders isn't really one of your strong points, and you would rather live a life of poverty than being forced into something that you hate.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

SuMmErTiMe!!!

I know I never post many pictures of Tj cause he is working all the time! But he actually was able to get off a little early on The fourth of July so we went to dinner and then down to Kirkland to watch the fireworks.

I thought this pictures was so cute of the two of them watching the fireworks!

My friend took me to this awesome little recreation park that has this water spray pad connected it was so much fun! I was a little worried how Ava would like being wet but surprisingly she loved every minute of it! Everytime I tried to pick her up she would scream and cry she wanted to be in the water all the time!

I also decided we would try the swing out for the first time. I know pathetic! We have one a block away from the house and I have never taken her. She loved it as you can tell by her face.

Green Lake!

My friend and I have been talking about walking Green Lake for months! And we decided to finally do it since the weather has been great for the last coupleof weeks. It's about three miles around the whole lake and I figured it would be a good reason to see some more of seattle and burn some calories since I haven't been on a consistant work-out routine since ava was born!

Ava's favorite thing to do!
