Summer is going too fast!!

Gosh I can't believe how fast summer is going! It's almost August!

Monday for my b-day Joe wanted to go to the fair. A friend online told me that it's closed on Mondays. We were bummed so we decided to go to an Angels game!! Love to watch baseball, so we left early, so we thought! And they were pretty much sold out! They only had single seats left and that would not have been fun! this is as far as we got...

So we ended up at Sam's club instead! Joe and his brother had fun! They always act like big kids when they are togehter!


On Tuesday we made it to the fair! We had lots of yummy food!! My favorite was the funnel cake with fresh strawberries and whip cream!! Yummy!!

At one entrance they had this awesome sand castle display! It's pretty cool looking and there is so much detail to look at!

Last night I did a quick lo of Joe's birthday. Didn't get too many pictures that day.

Thanks for stopping by!! Happy Friday!

Happy Birthday to me!

Yes today is the day that I turn the big 3-0!! Yikes that is scarey to say! I always thought people 30 were old when I was younger, but now I'm there!! We had a party yesterday with some friends and family! It turned out great!! I am sharing a few pictures!
Joe wanted to get balloons and when he came home he brought me a necklace!

My mom brought the cake, I have always loved sunflowers!

Of course I got some scrapbooking ribbons too! My mom got these for me! Now I know why she told me not to get any at Michaels the other day!!


After everyone left Joe was sad he didn't bring out my gift and could not wait till today! So he gave it to me! I love it!!! He did good!!!

And a few pictures with my great friends!!! Thanks for sharing my special day with me girls!

We did it!

We finished the backyard! We will still need to take down the patio cover and put up a new one in a different spot but at another time. For now the yard is ready for our party!! Last night Joe thought he would not make it and was worried about leaving the sod sit for another day but it actually went in really fast. I was on watering duty today, 6am,11am and 2pm! Had to get up early to water!

It's been so long since I have seen green grass back there!! Love it!

We did a lot of cleaning up today, and putting things away! Feels so good to be done back there! Just have to do the front yard next. I got the tables all cleaned up and ready to go for the party! This is our new patio set that my parents got us for our birthdays and anniversary gift! Love it! Thanks mom and dad!

I even had some time earlier today to get a pedicure and do a lo! This lo is for Scrappers 4 life CG. We had to make a lo that could open to have something hidden underneath, if that makes sense. I had trouble with the underneath part. I didn't want to make the photo to small and because of the heart I had to angle the picture.



So lucky to have this guy in my life!

And one more lo I did earlier this week, for Carribean girl's Let's play with a twist challenge. You had to 3 three beach pictures and it had to include the name of the beach. These pictures were from our trip to Monterey.


Have a super weekend!

Crunch time!

So there is one week till my 30th Birthday party! Gosh that is so hard to believe, I seriously still feel like I am 21! May not look it though! :( And our yard is still not done! We have dirt instead of grass!! It looks like we will only have time to finish the backyard, which is fine with me but I hope we can do it! My parents are coming over all day tomorrow and we will try to get what we can done to help Joe out!
Over the weekend Joe went away for my brother Eric's bachelor party. They went to Mammoth and went dirt bike riding and fishing. They had a great time and caught tons of fish, they said it was one after the other. My dad also went along and he sent me this great picture of most of the guys before they left for a ride.

While Joe was away I stayed at my mom's. We did lots of shopping and scrapping! She is working on a scrapbook to give my brother as a wedding gift. It will have lots of pictures from when he was younger. I also got one for my shower gift. It was great to look back at all the fun times we had as kids!
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

Happy Anniversary to us!

Last Saturday we left early in the morning for Lake Nacimento. It's about a 6 hour drive. We went with Joe's family. The weather was warm but not super HOT! ANd when we were on the boat it felt great!

We a lot of ralxing and even some fishing. I didn't fish much but Joe did a lot and even caught the most!

We got home on the 4th of July. We didn't do much, just cleaned up from the trip and relaxed.
Today is our 2nd wedding Anniversary! I can't believe how time flies, it seems like yesterday was our wedding day! I made Joe this cute little album, that I have had forever. He loved it! We don't have much planned for today, just going out to dinner!


Oh and a special thanks to my great friend Michelle L. who made this banner for me! Thanks again Michelle! I love it!
