Mom is Great....We make Chocolate Cake!

I can't take credit for this idea. It was on the Jello website ;)

Splish Splash

Jake loves to slide into the pool.
Splash!
Abbie is not so sure this is a great idea. (Check out her boo boo legs. Yikes she falls alot!)
I really don't want to slide.

Hooray for water on a hot day! (Abbie is in the background walking in the pool)

The Big 3-0 !

Yup I am now officially 30 (well tomorrow the 17th)! I actually feel really good about entering my 30s. I spent way too much time in my 20s worrying about what others thought of me...should I dye my hair unnatural colors? Our my crappy tattoos showing? Should I lie or say what I really think? Am I showing too much cleavage? Are skulls on clothing offensive?

UGH! What a waste of time and emotions!!

Now I feel like I have come into my own and really like who I am. I am pretty comfortable in my very pale skin.

Memories of Great Grammy

Hanging out with Great Grammy.
Abbie is really checking her out.
Great Grammy and Jake.
Pops and Great Grammy with Jake.

We love you! We will miss your dearly! Be at peace!
