A perfect day in San Diego.

Curtis and I had the lovely, and most wonderful opportunity to go to San Diego and see my cousin Natalie get sealed to her man, Chad, in the San Diego Temple!  The temple was beautiful! It was also mine and Curtis's first sealing we have ever been to. I absolutely loved it! It was such a special moment to witness. And I love to be around my family!

Although I think Curtis might have changed his mind over the weekend...
Since we are not the richest couple around we decided to share a car AND room with my Grannie, Grandpa, and mom! Oh it was sooo much fun! Curtis swears he heard cars starting all night.... we had our own bed so I didn't complain.

We left late Friday night, thanks to my mom, and arrived at our hotel at 2:30 in the morning! A little past my bedtime, thank you very much. Breakfast was at 9:30 so I couldn't really sleep in. Bummer. Breakfast was yummy though, Curtis had a little extra in his bagel sandwich that he didn't pay for...
A little wax paper never hurt anyone.


Smiled for a picture non the less. Of course my man Curtis would end up with the paper in his sandwich. :) Oh how I love you!

After many detours we finally made our way to the wonderful Sea Port Village. I love that place! We met up with Uncle B and little Leah.


Baby looks good on you Uncle B!

Who's eating who now?

Now that's a big Croc.
Why not go out on a boat. No pun intended...

Then off the temple! It was a beautiful day!




The lovely couple.


Curtis is so proud of his beard.

We left on Sunday, but not without having breakfast with Curtis's older brother who is so lucky to live in San Diego. He took us up a little mountain in La Jolla to see ALL of San Diego! It was so gorgeous up there!


Well it was a fantastic trip! And just like any other, it has to come to an end. Curtis said next time we are getting our own room!

Makeover!

Hair cut, nails done, and some new bling! No, no, no, not me. The puppies! It was about time too! Look at these monsters....



















How did they even see through all that hair?! And not to mention with the heat! They must of been roasting! They have been due for a little trim for a couple of weeks now, so I finally broke down and called a groomer. And a small fortune later..... wahlaaa!

So gorgeous! Caesar was not too fond of his pony, so that didn't last long. He also helped KC remove hers.  They looked totally different when we brought them home. I almost missed their messy faces! I knew they had little legs under all that fluff! They looked taller and thinner! Although a couple of weeks ago we tried a new feeding method with these little piggies. We use to feed them 3 times a day and they would finish their serving with just 3 bites! So one night we tried leaving food down for them... so they ate, and ate, and ate... half hour later they were fat and full! And finally stopped! They learned their lesson. 
So fat and miserable!

They also grew out of their collars. Poor Caesar was probably choking in his. Curtis wanted to man him up so check out their new bling...
I hope this helps! Spoiled rotten babies...

April showers bring May flowers...?

Happy Easter! 

I love love love this time of year! The weather is perfect! It's kite flying season. You got Easter, the Easter pageant, birthdays and swimming! The puppies have notice that it is getting a bit hotter, they don't take they're time outside anymore while finding a spot to do their business. Which is a bonus for me cause I don't want to be out there any longer then they do. They come inside panting and sprawl out on the tile floor. I have to leave the fan on for them durning the day while we are gone. Cause I know I get grumpy when hot.

April was good to Curtis and I. I am sad to see it go, but oh so excited for what comes next! We went to the Easter Pageant with Coco and Garrett. I forget how amazing it is! You think you would get tired of it, since we go pretty much every year. But it is a must see. I leave with a little bit more understanding of what Christ did for me.




And me and my mom did a little more baking, if you want to count making rice krispie treats baking.


The Easter Bunny even came to our home! 
Yes, my babies are spoiled! But I love them. They were more interested in the treats in the basket than anything else. KC got a dress and we made Caesar a tie. They were so gorgeous for Easter Sunday. They even got a bath the night before.... man, I need kids.


No, thats not a really small table, that's just a really big egg.

And you can't really tell but right when we got to my mom's KC decided to play in mud outside! Really? Luckily none got on her dress and she still looked good for pictures. Typical child.

And last but not least, April was not so good to our baby boy Caesar. Friday he had a little stay with Dr. Bramley and came home feeling... less of a man. But we still love you Mr. Caesar!
