Zaza, Sfuzzi's and beautiful friends!

This weekend we celebrated Rachel's 30 (+1) Birthday! We got some of our best friends together for a night out! And to make it that much better, we got a SUPER nice suite at Hotel Zaza so we could all go back to the hotel after going out to dinner/drinks. Words can not even begin to describe how amazing our room was... so here are some pics.....
All ready for a night out! I love my beautiful Bestie! :)We got ready and walked over to Snfuzzi's for dinner. There was a 2 hour wait for a table so we just had some drinks at the bar until it was ready.We left Snfuzzi's 4 hours later and went back to Zaza. It was a fantastic night! Happy Birthday Rachel! :)

Weekend Rewind

We had a great weekend! Friday night Reagin, Mini & I went over to Pinky & Justin's house to babysit my precious nephew, Brody J. He was a perfect little angel. :) Reagin even changed one of his diapers! She loved helping out and wanted to "burp" him the whole time... whether he needed it or not! LOLSaturday morning Mini brought Jacquelyn over for some playtime before we took Reagin & Jacquelyn to see Beauty and the Beast. Reagin, Camryn & Jacquelyn have so much fun together!Then it was MOVIE time! Beauty and the Beast!!!
Saturday night my brother Kyle, and his girlfriend, Sarah, came over for game night. We played 3 games of Taboo, LOVE that game! They won the first game, we won the second, and then they won the third. We will definitely be having a re-match!!! We had lots of fun for sure!!

Sunday evening we went over to Heath's Grandma & Grandpa's house to celebrate Tata's 75th Birthday!!

He or She? Open to see!

Saturday night Heath, Heather, Justin and I went to Marissa & Garrett's baby gender reveal party. I love this idea (wish I had heard about it when I was still having babies) but I think it is so cool and think everyone should do this! No one knew the sex of their baby, not even the parents!! The doctor called the bakery after the sonogram and told them so they would make the cake either blue or pink. So Marissa & Garrett were really excited and anxious to find out too! When the cake was cut, it was BLUE! Congrats to them on their bouncing baby boy, Graham Randall Bothun, due in June! :)

I'm baaaaack! :)

Wow, I didn't post one single thing in 2011! Well, 2012 = new year, new start.

Heath and I have started 2012 off doing Weight Watchers. We aren't members and we aren't going to meetings but we have tons of recipes and know how many points we are allowed to have in a day so we're trying to do it on our own first, and hopefully save some money by not having to pay to do it. I'm really proud of Heath and his dedication to finally lose "the weight" For about the past 3 years we have called Heath's belly "Rocky". This was a name given by Reagin. LOL Well, it's finally time for Rocky to get lost. And I know Heath can do it. I am so mad at myself for allowing myself to gradually gain weight too. The holidays didn't do me any favors either. So I have 30 lbs to lose. I'm only 5' 2" so 30 lbs will make a HUGE difference! I'm ready and anxious to get back into my fave jeans again. And just to have more energy and confidence. This is the year. Last time I wrote about losing weight and getting where I wanted to be, I did. And I will again. :) We had Chicken Tortilla Soup this week and it was so good!!!

And the award goes to...

In other news, Reagin is in Kindergarten this year and they had a really fun awards ceremony Tuesday night. Her school's mascot is a star so the theme was Hollywood and all the glitz and glamour that goes with it. I'm such a proud Mommy! Reagin received 6 awards!!! Honor Roll, Perfect Attendance, Classroom Leadership, Super Star Speller, Incredible Counter and Magnificent Musician... I guess Heath and I must be doing something right! ;)

Weekend Rewind

We had lots going on this weekend. Saturday morning I took Reagin to a trial gymnastics class at the ASI in Rockwall to see how she would do and if she liked it. She had fun and did a great job following directions and listening to her teacher! Here's a few pics:







Later that afternoon Reagin and I met Stephanie and Carson at their house and went to Kennedy's 4th birthday party together. The kids had a lot of fun!






Camryn played in Boston's cage for a while...






Sunday was spent doing laundry and hanging out around the house... it was a great weekend! :)

Bath Time Fun

So while Camryn was taking a bath the other night Reagin decided she was going to entertain her and help give her a bath too. It was too sweet and cute not to take pictures and share!

Contract Signed!

WOOOOOO HOOOOOO! We finally got the contract signed and sent to our contractor so they can start on the house repairs! The contract states they have 125 days to get it completed, which if all goes well, will put us back in our house sometime in December before Chrsitmas!!! Oh what a Christmas gift that will be!!! We all just want to GO HOME!

So, just wanted to share the excitement! Let's get this ball rolling...
