Make a Jelly Belly basket!!

Here's my friend Andrea making her basket! Her sister, Leticia and I also made them... and an extra one for Wendy at The Calico Horse to raffle sometime for her fundraiser w/ Avon Walk for Breast Cancer... We even managed to find the base for it with Wendy Longaberger's signature already and then got 2 more family members who were at the event! This was the 2nd time Longaberger had come to California's Jelly Belly Factory in Vacaville. I'll post a couple more pictures later of the finished product ... Thanks to Leticia who'd taken this pic on her iPhone .. I on the other hand ... havent had time to download off my camera yet! Besides making our baskets we also enjoyed shopping in The Factory Store that had come along ... each found a basket or items that had retired! So we knew it was meant to be that we'd found them there!

Biker Girl!

Haven is now officially a biker girl .. all on her own! She's had this bike from her "Uncle" Craig (owner of her favorite bike shop and daddy's other office) since she was 18 mths ... and even with the seat adjusted to its closest .. not until now could she reach the pedals! So watch for "H. Bean", her nick name from birth, competing in upcoming races!

Cute Cousins...

It's a known family fact .... that when I get tired of mom taking photos .... I start sticking my toungue out for photos .... something that started I think on a family road trip to Colorado when I was in high school .....

My little angels have also caught on to the trick ... teach them?? Noooo I wouldnt have! :)

I'm ALIVE!

Ok... I know some of you have been checking recently! I'll post shortly... but right now its time for laundry! :(

Just wanted to drop a quick note ..... to let you know to check back soon....

No Rylan isnt walking yet... Haven's not driving yet... Cascade's doesnt have a boyfriend....

Big Sister meets Little Sister

Haven loved to hold her .. she laughed when she "squeaked" ..

but when she cried! She pushed her back at Mommy!!!

Rylan Tate

8lbs 20 inches 8:46am

This is not quite 4 hrs old... she's such a sweety... Haven wanted to take her home to "Haven's house"... she also lifted her own shirt and wanted sister to get lunch from HER boobies! :) That was fun to explain! When we heard another baby crying in the next room Haven wanted to go get that baby to get some lunch from Mommy too!!

Haven and I went to Build a Bear and made sister her first bear! Haven got a pink leopard... we went to see sister..... and then home for a nap... to which she promptly asked to go back to hospital and see baby sister.... when we got there Cousin (Cascade) was there w/ Auntie "Lauren" (Laurienne) and IMMEDIATELY Cousin screamed when Haven arrived... MINE!! Apparently there will be a fight over this new arrival!!

This reminds me of my favorite "I don't do mornings" mug!

To all my friends that sent me best wishes for 2007, it DIDN'T WORK ! So for 2008, could you please send either money, food or gas vouchers. Thank You......
