CANCELLED!!!

I'm so sad. We had to cancel are Cabo trip due to the Swine flu. My mother in-law kept going back and fourth about it. But came to a decision that we should wait and go later. I was leaning towards staying home if they went anyways. Ava is sick and has been for two weeks now. She is on anti-biotics and can't seem to get over it. Today she woke up with a cough. When is this going to end. :( So I figured if something terrible happend to her I wouldn't be able to live with myself. I think better safe than sorry! We are going to shoot for July now. Hopefully everything is under control by then. Thinking we might head to Utah for a week For mothers day and my birthday on the 12th. Maybe I can see some of my friends and we could do a cake and ice cream get together and just visit?

Some Good Weather!

We've had some good weather the last week. Well on and off but I can't complain. We definately took advantage of it and headed to green lake. It's beautiful and It's great exercise. I am heading to Cabo this week I am so excited for a warm vacation and hopefully some relaxing.

Your probably all wondering why I have a picture of a shirtless boy on my post. This is my 17 year old nephew Jullien. My sister randomly decided to submit his picture to some modeling agencies to see if he could get some work in the summer before he starts college in the fall. Well she got immediate responses and the top male modeling agency in the world "click" wants him to sign tomorrow and move to New York asap. Red modeling agency the fourth in the world also wants him to sign with an exclusive contract and ship him off to Italy to start run way shows in a few weeks. I'm so proud of him. Hopefully he will get me some tickets to his run way shows. hopefully next to some famous people. ha ha.

Easter Day!

We got invited to Tj's Aunt Sharons for Easter dinner. She made an amazing meal as usual and was so kind to invite us. She had a fun easter egg hunt for Ava too. thanks Sharon

First thing Ava wanted to do was kiss her Easter bunny.

Easter Party!

My friend Jen threw a easter party for a few kids around Ava's age last Thursday. Ava had lots of fun eating pizza, hunting for eggs and then eating lots of cupcakes except for the little boy who was bigger than ava and kept pushing her down because she wanted to give him kisses. so sad!

All the kids. Ava was the only one who wouldn't sit down. Of course!

Hunting for eggs!

Yummy cupcakes!

Britney!!!

My good friend Jen's step daughter and girlfriends had tickets to the Britney Spears concert. We decided we would go and drop them off and hang in town till they got done. Well Jen surprised me when I got in the car and told me we were actually going to the concert. I was so excited I wanted to go ever since I knew she was coming to Seattle I just didn't know if I would be in town and if I would have a babysitter etc.. We scalped some amazing tickets for a really good deal. we were on the second row right above the people standing on the floor next to the stage. It was such a fun entertaining concert. We danced the whole night and the pussy cat dolls were really great too!

The oldies with the young ones.

Farewell Jamo!!!!

Ava and I got to go down to utah again. My brother in law Jameson left on his mission to Northern California. Of course it's a wonderful excuse to stay long. I had a great time. I got to see a few old friends, roomates and some cousins. went bowling with my sister and girls from work, went to thanksgiving point while my dad was working and looked for golf balls, its really fun like an adult easter egg hunt. We also took Ava to the animal farm which she loved! We celebrated my dads 61st birthday, went to a couple boutiques, ate lots and lots of cafe rio! Helped my mother in law move out of there house across the street and of course said goodbye to Jamo. We had a good time, Tj couldn't come again because he is trying to start his own car business and Is really stressed out so he stayed home to work but has been very understanding about us staying so long. Can't wait for the next trip down.

Of course Ava freaked out as usual and we had to leave early.

Ava loves to make silly faces.

At first she was really scared of the horses but warmed right up and didn't want to get off.

First Haircut!

I talked myself into finally cutting Ava's hair. It was really starting to look like a mullet! I don't know why it seems like the first haircut is the hardest to do but I am glad I did it!

Before!

After!
