Shower in Pink

 
 
 
Some of the ladies in my family put on a shower for a cousin and we were so excited to put this on for her!  Who doesn't like babies right!?!
 
Am I right?
 
Baby rabies!!
 
 

We decided we'd make her a diaper cake as our gift to her and it was really fun to make! We bought a few trinkets to add to the cake and a box of diapers.  Thank goodness for a good friend to show me how to make it!  Where would I be with out these people?? Well, not as creative as this I tell you!

I'm pretty proud of myself for making this!  If you didn't notice they are having a little girl...butt heads! ;)  I can honestly say I've not put on a shower for someone who is having a boy...how is it 2 of the ladies putting this shower on have ALL boys and end up putting on a showe/sr for these women who are all having girls? Honestly! Where is the justice people!?!

The Ball Game

GO MARINERS!!!
 
This was our gift to Dru this year for his birthday...we tried to do events for the kids this year for their birthdays.  I like doing these kinds of things rather than buying one more piece of something or other junk toy that will get broken or who knows. 
 
This year for Dru's birthday we took him to a Mariners game...pretty darn close to his birthday too!  He got some birthday money from Grandma and Grandpa and he bought that hat you see him wearing in the picture!  They have to buy like a shirt or something like that with their money at things like these...I detest wasting money on those stupid toys or what nots that irritated the parents and the kids act obnoxious and Lord knows what else. Done with those kinds of things!
 
I like this picture of my boys...
 
 Me and the fellers!  It really is a feat sometimes to get them to look at the camera...why is that!?!
 Frank and his boys...everyone was just so excited for this day!
What made it even better was that the Mariners won that game and we stuck around for the whole game! the kids managed to make it through the whole game...which was amazing! The last time we went to a game we barely made it to the 7th inning!  The bonus part of the whole thing was since we managed to stay for the whole game the kids got to run the bases, just like real ball players!  They were so excited!  It really was a great day and I'm so glad we were able to do that for Dru's birthday and that we could all go do it as a family!  Love that we an do those things sometimes!

Someday Turned 6!

 
Pokémon was the them this year!  This phenomenon was huge when I was young, it has now circled back and is big now with my boys.  I don't understand this thing but go with it I will.
 
I can't believe that he has turned 6 already! It was just yesterday that I had as close to a birth process as I was going to get.  Had this baby boy at home, labored in a pool in my room, gave birth to him on my bed.  After all was said and done it was SO nice to crawl into MY own bed and STAY there and not have silly nurses constantly waking me up doing Lord knows what (this does not mean to knock nurses...I just don't normally have a good experience with them) and they aren't touching my child.
 
So 6 years since that home birth and he started Kindergarten this year...rides the bus...big things that happened this year!
 
Dru with his cake that Grandma and Grandpa bought for him
 
 He loves his movie he got from a friend!  It's a good, cute movie!
 The cake up close and personal
 Mom and dad got him a Mariners sweatshirt for his birthday
 Big to do's over something Angry Birds!!
 Wish for the world my son!  I hope you get your wish!

Music That Moves You

I don't know about you guys, but there are times in my life that are defined by music. The summer after I graduated High school was Tom...
