A trip to San Fran & Sarah's Bachlorette Party

My photos of Sarah's Bachlorette Party were bad, but the evening was great!  Faith Hill at the Hollywood Bowl!  Sarah's a beautiful Redneck Bride!

Straty and Amelia joined me this past weekend in San Fran for the Stella and Dot HOOPLA.  It was a great weekend!

We had dinner with Auntie Mary and Uncle Nick.  We ate the best Chinese food ever.  Thanks again for taking the time to see us!  Love you.

Amelia was exhausted when we arrived at the hotel.  Our room wasn't ready yet, so she made do:)

The Wandering Wenches

How cool is this?  One of my fellow S Teachers is one of the lovely ladies traveling as The Wandering Wenches.  It's an amazing journey.  Check it out!  http://www.thewanderingwenches.com/about-us/

Flower Market with Auntie Sarah

Aunt Connie and Mom were "crappy creations flower shop" during Aunt Connie and Uncle Art's last visit.  I had such a fun time being a brat and locking the two stooges out of my house for trying to steal my sister's wedding flowers!!!!  Anyway...Aunt Connie is flying solo on the next brides floral needs and I'm sure they won't be crappy:)  The rehearsal dinner arrangements were beautiful and are still alive!  Anyway, the assignment for the flower lady was to search and seize, so we did.  Amelia had fun running around the warehouse and freezing her tush off in the cooler:)  The lady helping had a beautiful name, Desdemonde!  He dad nick named her Dezy because his good buddy Dezy Arnold and him played pool a lot.  The people and stories, I love it!  Amelia and Miss Bunny took their job as Flower Girl very seriously!  In search of pink...

Amelia's 1st bike

Orange Harley D what child wouldn't want that as their first bike!  We went for pizza after checking out the ole cervix today.  Things are really good for Baby Hadj II.  He/She was in a pike position and breached on the ultrasound today, just like last time.  Baby Hadj II was very active and wouldn't stay still for a side profile shot.  I'm sitting here typing at 12:12am and he/she is beating me up.  I really want a good nights sleep!!!!!   I tired of laying there wide awake or waking up after dreaming of something out of this world or of bees!!!!  I'm off, well one more posting, then I'm off!  I do more posts at one time, since it takes longer now for my to upload photos.  Sorry, you'll have to scroll down and catch up:)

We still a few things to finish, like glass doors on the shower:)  But we are very pleased with what we got done in a week and a half!  HGTV Weekend Warriors!!!!  Ok, so we didn't physically do the work.  I think we did the hardest part though, the demo, but we saved a TON of money!  Almost a thousand bucks!!!!  $20 to rent the trailer $40 for dump fee and a few sore bodies! Totally worth it though!  

Happy 4th of July! Happy 100th B-day HB

4th of July was a crazy one.  We slept in and ate a BIG breakfast at Polly's, just the three of us.  Then we headed over to the Johnson's home for some swimming and BBQ.  At that point I was starting to crash.  I think it hit me, I needed to get home ASAP or I was going to loose it right then and there.  I made it home only to focus on, do we take Ame to the fireworks?  She's exhausted, but it's the 100th celebration!  We had already missed the parade.  We decided to go.  On our way there, I lost it.  My body had been moving for so long and my mind was non stop that when everything was said and done, I crashed.  I cried all the way to the Johnson's house.  I started laughing though because I was crying like a baby!  I kept it together during the fireworks, trying to "be happy" but was sooooo happy to be going home.  The show was amazing and Ame hated each one!  She burried her face into my chest and then in daddy's.  She was so precious.  Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th! (Thx KM for photos)

The day after the 4th! The house was filled with flowers, presents and DJ party stuff.  Amelia and Aubrey decided to try on the hats and glasses.  Silly girls, it was so cute.  After a yummy breakfast by Straty, we headed to the park for a walk.  It was fun seeing our Godchildren and playing with them in our home.

Mr. & Mrs. Roberts

Who's the sexy driver?  I'll have to dance with him!

After the yummy dinner prepared by POSH, fabulous dancing and a D'lic cake from Great Dane, it was time to say good-bye to Mr. & Mrs. Roberts.  They left sitting on the back of Straty's Mustang with the guests lined up with sparklers!  What a night.  My sister is married!!!!!  Have fun in Maui!  Love you both.

WEDDING DAY OF KRISTA AND DREW!!!!

Drew and Krista decided to meet prior to the ceremony.  They shared a beautiful moment together!  Then the bridal party joined them for lots of photos!  Check out the girls cute shoes!!



OK, I'm only going to smile ONE time Auntie Krista!

Thank you to Emily, Krista's friend, for the phoots.  I took them off her facebook!  I didn't get many pre wedding photos.  I was running around ensuring the reception was going to be there when we arrived at our house:)
