Whats been going on in JuLY....

So, we have been a bit busy......

I have been having so much fun working with all the new Bella Blvd product......

such an honor to be able to create for Stephanie!

Along with that, I still try and get in a 3, 4 or 5 mile walk a day.

Makes me feel so much better, and seriously, who couldn't use a little exercise!

This is the latest of what has happened around here at our house.....

Picked the princess up from my parents where she spent the afternoon playing.....

and I pull up the driveway, and she is doing this.......

on her cousins bike, which I guess she just picked up and tried it and was able to ride it!
So when we got home we took her bike out so she could show Daddy & me what a big girl she is!

Gotta love the proud Mommy moments!

Busy Summer...

Been having a busy summer, I am sure like all of you.

Today is just a quick update, with hopes to get a picture post up here soon!

Been working with the Bella Blvd. new collections.

Today Stephanie posted the brand new color palettes on the

Bella Blvd Blog!

Be sure to stop by there and check them out!!!

Very fun stuff coming your way!

Enjoy!

Strawberry Festival in Cedarburg

This is where we spent our past Saturday.

Enjoying some family time & great weather!

Annalise took this picture of Lance & I....
she has been busy learning the camera.
(that could be a good thing.........
with an upgrade in my future!) :)

The reason Annalise came to Strawberry Festival,

for the *biggest pickle ever*. That is all she talked

about on the way there....funny the memories

the year before creates!

And, look who we met!!

So much to say...

Seriously, does it get any sweeter than this?

I have been quite busy these past 2 weeks with this adorable

little lady....she has had many accomplishments these past few

weeks as well. I will be back to post more about them soon.

I just wanted to let you all know we are doing okay, just busy!!

Two for Two-sday!

Here is my two for Two-sday.... NSD event a few weeks back.....
Allyson & I getting our caffine on :)

Check out my sister's blog
for more Two for Two-sdays!

and she READS....

This is the most exciting part of Kindergarten for me......the fact that my little girl can now pick up a book and read it to me......she loves to read....and has been for a while. She is enjoying the Dick & Jane chapter book so much that we read it every night. I love this part of her life, watching her grow, her love for learning....all of it. It just takes my breath away to look at her and see her becoming this amazing little person.....and she's mine :)

Love her!

Two for Two-sday!

This Tuesday is dedicated to some fun we had on Mother's Day!

Below is my reason for waking up every morning......

the princess of my day....

the one who calls me Mommy......

and gives me those unlimited kisses and hugs

on a regular basis......

my sweet little Annalise!

Ahhhhh......and we can be silly too!

And a bit of a poser.....

And of course what would a day with my brother
be without him picking on me.....
(and OMG, could my mouth get any bigger??)

& 2 sister in laws.......
(to Larissa)
Deanna, Larissa & me!


& let us not forget how the DS's took over
part of the afternoon......
with being able to play against each other....
I mean, how cool is that!!!
