is what a friend of mine is calling Facebook. LOL It's so true. I have grown lazy to post here or could it be that I don't really have the time? Combination possibly. Anyway, thought I would do a simple update with lots of pics.
As far as I am concerned, life is the same. Lots of challenges, countless blessings, and I love school. Trying to be positive... right?
In September, I drove out to California for the weekend to celebrate Brenna's 10th birthday and my parents got tickets to an Angel's game. Lesley brought cupcakes to the stadium to celebrate. So much fun!
How did I get this picture you ask? Camera in my left hand and the hose is in the other. LOL LOVE this picture!
Girls' night out with friends! We went to dinner in Tempe then dancing in Scottsdale!
Soccer season has been A-mazing! Brenna is on "Purple Thunder" with 3 of her best friends and the best coach ever! These girls have really come into their own this season! Their skills have sharpened on so many levels. Here are some pics of their team. Snack time and team cheer!
Ok, so what started out as my asking Brenna and Lora to clean their stinky feet, became all manner of craziness! Click to make them bigger. I took so many pictures of this and would love to post them all because they all make me smile and laugh equally, but here are the 4 I chose. HAHAHAHA!
Halloween Festivities started with a party given by my darling friend Jenny. The kids had such a blast. Jenny always makes things so fun for all the kids.
Jenny got me tickets for my birthday to go see U2 and it was awesome! A-mazing! We were so bummed that we had to wait in 2 hours of traffic and missed the Black-eyed Peas, but nevertheless U2 never disappoints! Me, Robin, Jenny and Meagan.
Jenny is rocking out to our own personal Black-eyed Peas concert in the car. I was texting a friend inside the concert who kept me posted on everything going on inside the stadium so we knew even before we entered we'd missed it and we were a bit miffed. Jenny asked one of the parking guards if we could park in an empty lot and the lady told her no... Jenny looked at her for a second and then sped off! The lady yelled for her to wait! LOL I mentioned to Jenny that I thought she was the lady who collected the money for parking! HAHA! We got free parking. :) Oops!
The amazing stage on the concert taken with my cell phone, hence the awesome blurriness! I am sure most people who look at my blog were there anyways!
These are two random Halloween moments, first from our "fall festival" at church. I was actually in charge of the photo booth, but someone offered to take a pic of me and B. The second was a pic of the girls at lunch at school. It was Court's 10th birthday! Have I mentioned I adore these girls? I'm just sayin'!
Halloween Night! PHoto shoot with the kids! Brenna was a green fairy, not to be confused with Tinkerbell. Jake... shocker! He was a D-backs player. Gotta love that passion. :)
And then there was me... Jake and B took these of me in my "skater girl" (WHATEVER!) costume. Yes, I have green hair!
After visiting some friends in surrounding neighborhoods, we went trick or treating with Lora and Chelsea and Preston and Emma. Courtney met up with us later at the party where we dipped caramel apples (YUM) and the girls performed a skit... well, sort of. LOL
Witches brew!
LOVE LOVE LOVE these pics! I haven't been very good on my blog either! I have much catch up to do!! You look fabulous!! Looks like you have been up to much fun!! I cant get over how much your kids have grown up!! They are soo lucky to have such a cute and fun mom! I miss you friend!
