8 Years of Marriage.....

Yeah! Nate and I have been married 8 years now, as of April 7. It just keeps getting better! We have been through 5 moves, 2 states, 3 children, 1 death, 1, 210 diapers, 1 eye surgery, and one work for Dish network (don't ask, it wasn't one of my better ideas, but it was one of the funniest evenings I have ever spent..right Jenn?)
All in all, what a great family I have, what a wonderful husband, and the best kids ever.
Next on our list is Nate's brothers wedding on May 3rd. We are excited to go home and see our family, and on a personal note...I CANNOT wait to wear my brand new baby blue brides-maid dress in satin.
And on a D2 sidebar, Nate made it into the NY times paper....

That's about it....I get to turn in Ella's school papers next Monday. Another phase of our life is about to begin!

American Girl Day!

Grandma Beth came to stay with us for the last couple of weeks. It's so great to have her here with us, but really she came to take Ella to the American Store up at the Grove. This was her BIG treat for getting through the eye surgery.... I asked what I got for having babies, but apparently I'm not as important as a grandkid! :)

So with an unseemly amount of money to spend on crazy doll items, off we went! Ella picked out the doll that looked the most like her...and of course the token ice skating rink and outfits.

It was a great day in LA, and we had a great time shopping and people watching! Thanks Grandma Beth...it's so great to have these memories with my cute little momma and my sweet and very excited daughter! Zach...not real thrilled...but I'm sure his time will come!

After the big shopping day we headed to Disneyland to celebrate the good times! Nothing like trying to kill Grandma off by having her walk non-stop for 2 days!

Well little Rosie, we hope you love you doll, and all the little tiny things that came with her(and are currently spread around our home!)....let's hope she survives your brother when he learns to pull hair!
