P o o l P a r t y

me and darci share an equal love for swimming.
so we force our kids to join us.
but they love it.
hooray for summer!





only darci will appreciate this...

p a r t y at the park.

for matix and my dad's birthday, we partied at the park with the fam. 
mostly for my dad though, since matix already got his celebration.
it was fun. and matix loved on the spraying water. 
until it got cold.

internship



i am now officially divulged in my position as the pressintern for cinevegas 2009. Until school got out, I was only working on Fridays, but now that school is out, I am working 3 days a week. (and 2 at my dads office) busy busy. So far things have gone good. a lot of work with clippings and credentials, but now that the festival is only a month away, things should start to busy up and get fun! im excited. For instance yesterday, we headed down to Ditch Fridays at the Palms Pool to hand out beach balls and spread the word about the festival. Sure beats sitting in the office right?? (too bad i dont drink, because we definitely got vip passes with free drinks that my co-workers appreciated. haha)

For those of you who don't know anything about cinevegas, its a film festival at the palms from june 10-15. this year we are premiering a new robin williams movie call "World's Greatest Dad," and supposedly he is supposed to come. should be fun!

car a day in may


that's right me, matix, and my dad went down to the hyundai dealership last night for their raffle because my mom made us. she knows someone who actually won the other night. unfortunately we didnt win. but maybe i will have more luck next time! haha. that would be sweet to win a car just like that. or even to just take the $500 they offer if you don't want the car.

happy mother's day to me...

i came home to flowers on the porch from jon.
(he had his best friend drop them off. )
how sweet.
♥♥♥
♥♥♥
it made my day.

to celebrate mothers day my dad decided to have a progressive dinner, 
stopping at each of my sister's houses.

we started at theresa's for appetizers.
then to steph's for salad.
then to our house for the main dish and dessert.
(julie's house was cancelled due to peyton's recent arrival)

it was a cute idea. but i little chaotic. and naptime was ruined.  :)
i mostly think that my dad did it to get out of doing all the work. 
good job dad.


sweet tooth...

lately matix has no desire to eat...

unless it's sugar!!!!
  

we thought he was just playing with his toys... but no. 
he is a candy stealer and mess maker. 
and he is not even ashamed in the slightest.

what a boogerbutt.

this is why...

I love val...
today she sent me a text so funny (but only to us) that made me bust up laughing while getting my oil changed. the lady next to me says "boy, you're having fun with your phone." i almost died.  

i love how we have a wacky relationship that no one could ever understand. and how we can be so immature, yet it's so normal. 

i love layne
today she ate with me. and then napped with me. and it felt like 3 years ago when it was our daily routine. even though now we're both married with children. (okay almost, in her case)
