Life just happens

So much has happened just this month 
and I am finally catching up.
Ryan went to New York for the NYPD funeral and
even though he was sick like a dog, he got a chance to spend some time hanging out with his sister.
Baby and Kylah got sick for the first time in forever while he was gone
 and I really felt what it was like to be a single mom again.
Our trampoline has been so fun and gets used everyday.
Early stages of potty training have begun.
Club volleyball is in full swing and our schedule is very busy.
This season we are going to Reno 3 times and off to Florida this summer....
that means Disney World here we come.
So, my travel agent skills are really being put to the test.
Besides those trips, we are finally going to visit the island of Kauai
 for spring break
 and planning our first cruise to the Bahamas or Caribbean in the Fall
So like Ryan says, I have lots of houses to sale! 
He was suppose to go back to patrol this month
 and finally put on one of those uniforms, 
but he got pulled out to be on a special project...so in the office he stays.
I am not complaining!
However, he stays busy with house projects and always has a list.
We had a great time with friends at Justin Siena's crab feed and 
our 2 Monterey pine trees are being cut down today
 because they are basically dead. 
It's a sad day because they are 50 years old and so beautiful, 
but it was their time. 
Looking forward to our outdoor kitchen and cherry trees to replace them.
The baby is so busy and energetic. 
He talks to so much and has quite the personality. 
I don't know where he gets it from!
He is determined, stubborn, very silly, but oh so sweet and loves to learn. 
These days all we hear are....Brenden do it, Brenden big boy, no stop it!

 
Love him!


Super silly all of the time

Good bye 2014

2014 is almost over and I am ending this years blog 
with all of our holiday festivities.
We had a wonderful time celebrating with friends and family 
and am very happy that we relaxed and stayed close to home.
Enjoy and Happy New Year!

Kids Xmas party at the country club

Making crafts, eating sweets and NOT taking a pix with Santa. He says, no santa!


Took off with his goody bag

First time Ryan put lights on the house. It was magical!

My farm table came to life.

Brenden was so into helping daddy build it and stain it.

Who knew that black tea and vinegar would make it look the way I wanted

Ta da! So proud of my hubby for amazing me....again.


Christmas Eve at Grandma Lynn's

Poor Bella

The unwrapping begins!

Santa was tired! This pix was taken at midnight.

7am...the madness begins. He loved his castle!

Spoiled kids!

All cleaned up and ready to get on the road for celebrations.

Hanging out at Grandpa Gary's for the afternoon.

Watching the train at Uncle Doug's and ready for Xmas dinner.

With grandmas!

Kylah and Molly

Jumping for joy! Thanks for building this Daddy and Papa.

 XO,

Tania

Brenden's 2nd Birthday

Oh Two-dles!
It was a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse kinda day.
Happy 2nd Birthday to my sweet boy!
I can't believe that I have a toddler now.
He is super energetic,
very determined, 
easily frustrated when he can't do something on his own, 
talks soooo much,
can count to 14 all by himself,
and loves to cuddle with me all day!

After nonstop rain, even late last night...
it was sunny and beautiful today.
Perfect weather for his little party. 
We kept it small and relaxing, 
and Ryan was able to stay the whole time 
even though his entire department was required to work today 
because of the protests.
So, we had a few people missing because of that.
Anyway, thanks for coming everyone. 
We had a great time!
