Girly Girls in their Twirly Skirts

I have a little too much fun dressing up my little girlies. I am not sure how long I will get away with it, but I think they look so stinkin' cute when they match. (Master Diva and her miniature apprentice). These skirts were a fun project,check 'em out here.

Ryan's 5K

Saturday morning, we woke up around 7:40, and Ryan announced that he had to be at a race at 8am (news to us). He threw on some running shoes and left. We made ourselves presentable, then met him there. He hasn't run in at least 5 years and he didn't even have time to stretch... so we were hopeful that he might finish the 5K. Much to our surprise he did pretty good and managed to get third in his division. Yeah daddy. (very sore daddy).

Disneyland with the Girlies

Girls get-together at Disneyland was a blast! Those in attendance: Kati, and her girls Kara, Kelli, and Tori, Denise and her girls Alyssa and Courtney, Myself with my girls Tatum and Lyric... and then there was Davis.
Davis looks a little pitifall off to the left. He kept asking when his "boyfriends" were coming, I had to repeatedly remind him that they were called "buddies."
The girls were so excited to see Minnie... the picture is horrible, all I had was my camera phone and Lyric was clinging hysterically to me (in fear of the enormous mouse who surely wanted to eat her).
Cruis'in with the ladies.

Tatum and Alyssa
Lyric enjoyed snacking her way through the lines.

Posing with the Mouse.

And we're spent!

Mommy Survey

Mother's day after-nap snack in bed. Tatum's idea and creation. Happy Mother's day to my own mom, Mother-In-Law and all of those wonderful mommies out there who inspire,uplift, and encourage me!Davis, not wanting to be left out of the action, ran in the room yelling "Happy Mother's Day, I got you sea crabs!" (Apparently, that was going to be part of my Mother's Day Dinner).

California Cuties

Spring has sprung and my California cuties are working the camera with more sass than you can shake a stick at. As always, Sarah did an amazing job with her mad photography skills. Forewarning there is a lot of pictures... but had over 300 to sort through.
