Happy Birthday Michael!

Happiest of birthdays to my wonderful husband! Michael is such an amazing man... he is a giving, selfless, loving husband and father. He brings such joy to my life and our children absolutely adore him. I feel so blessed that I get to spend my life with him. Our lives are filled with love and laughter and I attribute that to Michael. Happy Birthday sweetheart!

Some of my recent favorites of Michael...

Happy Birthday Mimi!

We celebrated our beloved Mimi this weekend! Michael barbecued a delicious tri tip and chicken lunch and we enjoyed time with the cousins playing together and celebrating our wonderful mom!

More Tball Pictures!

Connor and John played the Marlins, who is the team of their good friend Andre from preschool! 

Mimi came to cheer on Connor!

Our neighbors came to cheer on the Giants! We're trying to recruit Irelyn to be on our team next year!

The Harden's came up to support Connor and got to see him hit a slammer!

Tball Continues!

We've continued with our busy Tball schedule. This weekend, Dave and Jill came up for the game and Auntie Mandy and CJ also came to cheer on Connor (and Michael!). We had a great time! Connor did awesome and we got to see him hit a slammer from a coach-pitch. Of course Connor is a stud muffin, but the coach who was pitching was pretty awesome too! And very handsome I might add!

Easter 2013

We had a wonderful Easter this year, filled with fun, family, and lots of candy! It was fun to see the kids hunt for eggs together- even Maddie seemed to get the idea of hunting for eggs. This was the first year we talked to Connor about the true meaning of Easter and he seemed to get it. We all feel very thankful for all the blessings the Lord has given us. Happy Easter to all!

Annual Friend's Easter

Another great game!

Grandma and Pops came up to cheer Connor on during his 2nd Tball game. He beamed with pride and was so excited they were there! We're really enjoying baseball season!

Weekend in Monterey

We had a quick, but wonderful weekend trip to Monterey. Mom was housesitting for a friend, so we left after Connor's Tball game late Saturday evening and drove there. Sunday was filled with fun at the aquarium and then at Dennis the Menace Park. Monday morning, we headed to the beach, and then drove home.  Although it was short, we had a lot of fun and the kids loved getting time with Mimi!

It's Tball Time!

Tball has officially started. Michael is the coach, along with a good friend of our's Mike Barriero (John's dad). So far, we've got a great team and our first game went great. Tons of parents and families came out to support the boys. It was REALLY special to see Michael coach. He is so natural with the boys. His positivity and love for baseball really shows. So many of the players have already bonded with Michael, wanting to give him hugs and high fives. Its very, very cool to see. Connor was a stud and seemed to enjoy every minute of the game. He batted well and made a great catch/throw to 1st base as well! So fun to watch him develop a love for baseball!
