Baseball game






Every year James' work buys tickets to go to a local baseball team game, and every year we go. Last year Riley was little so it was easy, she sat on our laps and then slept for the whole game. This year I knew it would be tricky to make it through the whole game because she wants to be mobile ALL the time.


Knowing that James wanted to make it to the end of the game because he wanted Riley to see the fireworks, I decided to bring the portable dvd player for her when she got antsy. And her favorite movie that she has watched 100xs, Tangled. I can't blame her that Flinn Ryder is the BEST looking disney character i've ever seen!

That cute little guy's name is Natey, our friend's kid. He and Riley are buddies :0)

Easter 2011

That bunny is so soft!
Riley kissing her Daddy. So precious!
Riley kept trying to get James' Rolos EVERY TIME I was trying to take a picture.

Every Easter it's a tradition for my family to go to Myrtle Beach, SC. My brother's family was here visiting from Utah, so it was even more fun. I have a lot of pictures but here are a few of Riley on Easter morning. The Easter Bunny was able to find us at the beach and left our presents on the couch. I woke up to Riley saying "bubble, bubble, bubble!" I guess out of all the candy and the stuffed bunny she only saw the bubbles in the back of the basket. I got a coach purse and James got a bag of Rolos and some peeps. :0) Man, that Easter Bunny knows what we like. :0)

What Happens When You Turn 25....

You get an I-Pad 2! Yeah! :0) I have been thinking what have I accomplished at 25? Well, yes I have ACTUALLY accomplished the goals I set out for:

1.) A GREAT husband who took me to get married in the temple (almost 5 yrs ago now).
2.) Had a beautiful baby girl (almost 2 years ago now).
3.) Graduated from college (almost 2 yrs ago, 2 weeks after having that beautiful baby girl).
4.) Stay at home Mom

It's funny because I LOVE being a stay at home Mom, but sometimes I miss out on feeling like I accomplished something, other than my to-do list. I know I am doing the most important job there is but sometimes I miss the feeling of accomplishment that others might feel in the workplace. I know that is so dumb to think like that but SOMETIMES I do. And I KNOW there are others out there that feel that same way :0)

So anyways, now I need to pick what color cover I want for my I-Pad! Any suggestions? I got the black one if that helps to decide what color cover. :0)

Riley LOVES her Dad...

"Can you hear me now Uncle Cameron?"
This was so funny...Riley grabbed James' remote and ear-piece and climbed up on the coffee table where James usually sits to play video games.

Riley and James playing video games. They're two peas in a pod!

Here is how James bonds with Riley...

To GLEE or not to GLEE..that is the Question!

I am torn! I LOVE music, so naturally I LOVE-D Glee. But now, it seems like it is getting WORSE and WORSE every episode. They keep trying to be "politically correct." The gays, teenage pregnancy, the underage alcohol drinking, and now lesbians and wanting to make sex-videos, and stating "that teenagers not having sex is like a lion being a vegetarian is unrealistic!" I have overlooked it in the beginning...yes shame on me. But now, after tonight's episode I am faced with the question...to continue watching it (for the music, of course, not for the morals), or to stop watching it all together. And just get the c.d.s

So, I ask you fellow bloggers...and Gleeks...to Glee or NOT to Glee? That's my question...what's your answer?

Riley's first contact with snow


I guess it's a good thing we don't live in Idaho anymore. :0)

Christmas Snow




We happened to get snow on Christmas night, which meant James got his wish, that Riley would be able to see snow on Christmas. She hated the snow at first. We even got her some snow boots, but she got really mad when we made her woke through the snow. We have a video that I will upload later. But for now here are some pictures of James and Riley and their snowman.
