A League Of Her Own


A little background on the greatest women I know. I know her as Mom, some know her as sister, grandma, daughter, friend and neighbor. But so many know her as the person that put away the guy that abused them. The person that helped solved the homicide that changed their lives for ever, the person who testified on the rape that their sister went through or the person that identified the individual who stole their identity and freedom. Maybe they just know her as the person that bought them a new wallet because they got their's stolen at school or the lady that bought them ice cream in line when they didn't have enough money. Maybe your the little girl that she brought balloons to after being physically abused. Whatever your story may be your a lucky individual if you get to say you know her.
No award could recognize the amount of lives she has touched, but we had the chance to go see her get an award for her work with the secret service in solving a large gypsy ring. Congratulations Mom, we couldn't be prouder.

All Girl

Being all girl means I love snacking...
And I love a good book....
And I like playing with the computer...
We lOVE you Ellanie.

All Boy

Being all boy means I love hiding and crawling in places I can't fit...
And pulling the ABC matt all apart...
And mom's favorite... pulling everything out of the trash.
We LOVE you Logan!

Summer BBQ

We had a community BBQ this afternoon at the park and the kids spent most of the time in the swings and the tent they set up with plastic balls.

Future Clown

This is what happens when Daddy's playing with Logan.

OC Fair

We had so much fun going to the OC Fair with Ligia and baby Wally.
Baby deer, pigs, lamas, sheep and more were all a big hit at the petting zoo. The kids got to go around and touch and feel all the animals and got a big kick out of it. Next year we will attempt the elephant ride.
We all covered the food part of the fair and the kids loved the ice cream!
Snack break...
