Walmart Purchase

I gave in a bought one of these little pools for our yard.
the kids love being in the water so i gave in and figured this is a perfect
summer thing to have in the yard...$10.00 goes along ways!

Good Friends & Fun in the Sun

Last week we rounded up our college friends

a.k.a the "Cabo Crew" and spent a nice long weekend at

our house in Palm Desert

the kids had a blast swimming with

everyone all weekend long

i took a break from my camera for the weekend

only leaving me with a few pictures to share.

Looking forward to more fun adventures with this group again.

Mother's Day in Laguna Beach

There isn't a day that goes by that i don't feel like the luckiest

woman in the world. God has blessed me with the most amazing

family. My husband, my soul mate and my best friend

and our 2 amazing children that bring me

so much joy every single day of my life.

I had the best Mother's day with my

husband and kids in Laguna Beach.
Brunch, strolling on the beach, chasing the waves,

and shopping at the candy baron for

the kiddos...what more could i ask for.

thank you family for such a wonderful day!
