I am a wife, a mother, a daughter,a grandaughter, a sister, a friend...I've learned it is better to create happiness than pursue it. People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel

You are my Sunshine.....my only SUNSHINNEEEEE

Today as I was making Jacob breakfast I started singing at the TOP of my lungs..."You are my Sunshine....my only Sunshine....you make me happpyyyyyyy when skies are blue grey or any other way" This is a song I have sang to Jacob since I was pregnant with him. It's our song....I sing it to him almost on a daily basis. Lately he rolls his eyes when I sing it to him....but still it doesn't stop me ;0) and for some unkown reason I can't just sing part of the song...I HAVE to finish every line...call me crazy if you must...it still won't stop me. Anyways back to the story ....I get to the "you'll never know Deaaaaar how much I loooooove you" and he says "yes I do" very quietly, I stop singing and ask him "What Buddy?" he says "Yes! I do!!....know how much you love me!!" My heart melted.....I just might have this Mommy thing down....for today anyways....I kiss his face off.....and then go back to finishing my song....

We love playing games at our house....so when Frank bought us these GInormous playing cards, Jacob and I were so excited to play our favorite game "speed"~I have to admit~I got schooled by a 7 year old

We have been having the BEST time with Jacob in basketball.....he love love loves it! and I love that it teaches him about being a team player and never giving up.

I HAD to make a Jacobs Mom sweatshirt....I am so sad that this Saturday is our last game BUT baseball tryouts are this weekend so stay tuned....

We found this cute coffee shop called Lava Java that made THE cutes Lattes....and they tasted DElicous!!!


I started a new job as a Domestic Violence Advocate at the Emergency Support Shelter
I LOVE IT!!! I feel like other than being a Mommy THIS is what I was meant to do...it's very rewarding and I am sooo thankful for the opportunity to be a part of such a great organization. Jacob on the other hand has not been so thrilled to have to share his Mommy with anyone. The last three weeks I have been training and having kinda random hours, I think he will adjust better when we are on a regular schedule.

IT SNOWED....and ALL of southern Washington has CLOSED down. I am not joking.....everyone is freaking out~school is closed~they had an EMERGENCY BROADCAST~yes you read that right!!! an emergency broadcast for people to be careful and not drive on the roads....the news did a 20 min segment on the dangers of the snow! REALLY???? call me an Alaska girl but can you SEE the road behind Santos and Jacob in this pic...Rookies!!

I got a some peakaboo highlights! L-O-V-E them AND Celeste who did them!

My nephew Elijah is AMAZING!!!! He got first place in his wrestling match!! he has showed sooo much determination, endurance and integrity~I am so proud of you Elijah!!

My Niece Ivy made the National Honor Society!!!! She is sweet, thoughtful, loving, smart, and as pretty on the inside as she is on the outside!! Good Job IVY!!!


Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful
