Wedding Over!

Well we made it to the wedding! Everyone said it turned out great! I'm just glad it's over! Of course you know we had to start late. I was so determined to start everything on time. Well the food was 2 hours behind schedule, we didn't get my Mom to the wedding till 11am (start time), my Dad didn't get there till 11:15, the ring got lost in the grass right when we were ready (thanks Janice C. for finding it). Besides all of the late start/trouble it flowed really well! I'm downloading the photos right now and will post them later. Hopefully they turned out decent, seeing as I didn't take most of them. My hubby was the photographer seeing as I was in the wedding party! Whoo... I can breathe now!

Mrs.Trouble



Or should I say "in to trouble"!
I left her alone for 10-15 minutes and I find her in the bathroom. She was washing off the chapstick she put on her feet. Amazing how she knew to fill the sink and plug it. I already knew she could climb up on the counter.
I just can't leave her alone!

New Floor!



Well we had a new floor put in my Mom's kitchen and front entry yesterday. It took all day! I had to keep the kids out of the house, so we went to the park, lunch and Samantha's. Thanks to all who kept us busy!
When I got back I decided to try and help grout the tile, here are some pics!
Heads-up Tip:
Once you've grouted there can't be any traffic on the floor for 24 hours and no furniture for 48 hrs. What! This house has 11 people in it!
If we knew that we would of sent everyone on vacation!

LDS Women site!

LDS Our Ladies Room
I found this website it's pretty cool! You can meet ladies around the world who are LDS. Thought you might like to know about it!

Sew Like The Wind!




Do you remember "the 3 amigos"?
When the ladies are sewing the costumes and they said "sew like the wind"!
We were saying it all week. We're just about done w/ the dresses.
Grandma just went home today, Thanks Grandma!
While we were sewing the nice, expensive machine froze up.
So we had to pull out the old fashion one! It still works!

Schools Back!

School starts next week. We got most of the shopping done and we just went to the school to pick up the schedules. Mateo is in the 6th grade and at the middle school with Kenny. We were dreading his schedule because we had issues with some 6th grade teachers. We got so lucky; not on our schedule, yeah!
Kenny is now in the 8th grade, that is just amazing! My BABY! I can not believe next year he will be in high school.
As of this moment I am also done with elementary for 3 years. Unbelievable!
Well here's to the new school year!=)

Yum-O!




My Grandma just got in for a quick visit. We needed her to save us from these dresses. We need 5 dresses made for the wedding on the 30th and they're not done.
It's Grandma to the rescue!
Since she's here, we also get GOOD food! How about homemade tortillas, YUM!
Christina and Mateo had a blast helping! I had to take some photos!
Here's also a pick from the park, too cute!

Still Round!

So this might be too much info but why do I still feel like a round, plump chica?
Over the past eight months I've lost 25-30 lbs and dropped 2 cup sizes, I should be jumping for joy, right?
I'm not! I don't feel like I've lost any weight. When I look at myself I still see a round face and body.
Where is my cute little, hourglass body?
Well I guess I should just be happy my hubby likes and enjoys my body no matter what size! LOL!

Magnetics!



This is what the kids are stuck on lately, even Christina! We've had these for years and now they are just pulling them out and using them.
Actually Christina found them and the craze began.
I had them hidden for awhile because I was worried about "someone" eating them.
Did you see that House episode, where the boy ate all the magnets?
Wasn't a good thing!

New dress+New hair do= Cousin Quality Time!




I took the kids school shopping and Christina got a new dress. (check out Fallas in VV, Alamo Center- great finds!)
My niece came over and played dress up with Christina. They had a blast and I never knew her hair could go in 2 ponytails. They were so cute I had to take pics!
