Brooklyn's Pictures

Just a note to let you know that a free 5x7 photograph is never "really" free. Michael had an appointment at Valley Children's today and when it was finished we decided to go to Babies R Us. I can't go to Fresno and not visit that store. While browsing, one of the ladies from the photo area asked if we would like a free photo of our children. I say yes to anything "free" so with a deadly look from my husband off we went. Michael was past nap time and Ezra was mid crisis so I figured why not do Brooklyn's 1 year picture .. for free! So 40 minutes, 2 screaming boys, an irritated husband, and $25.00 later this is what we got. So cute!!

Going to the Temple!

Well we finally made it! It's been a long 2 years but we're done. Our adoption was finalized July 25th for both boys and on August 24th we went to the Fresno Temple to have the boys sealed to our family. It was a very neat experience. We had our family and close friends there with us and it was a very meaningful event in our lives. Thanks to all who shared the day with us!

Vinyl Lettering Open House

I'm sure a lot of you know my sister Melissa and I do vinyl lettering on tiles, glass blocks, and wood signs. We sell our items at Zion Books in Visalia. The website is www.zionbooks.net
We will also be hosting our first open house on Saturday September 27 from 10 -2 at my sister's home, 3825 E Oak, Visalia. We will have our current items on display in addition to all of our new holiday creations. Everybody is welcome, so bring a friend and get some early Christmas shopping done. We will also be taking custom orders if you've been wanting something special!

Fun In The Sun!

We finally left the house for a playgroup! On Wednesday we went to a playgroup with the kids from church. It was at the new park in Visalia, Riverway Sports Park. They have a really cool water play area that was perfect for the kids. Michael and Brooklyn jumped right in. Ezra was a little water shy at first but by the end he was having a blast! We're going back next week!

My First Blog Ever!

Okay, so after a mass amount of peer pressure I have finally created a blog! I'm new to the whole "blogging" thing so I'll need some time to get this figured out. Look for more int the next couple days!
