I made a Pillow!

While the kids were napping today I decided to try to make a pillow with some scraps of material. I think it turned out pretty cute! As I stepped back to admire my hard work.....I stepped in a big pile of dog poo! Such a typical day for me.

My Beautiful Children

I caught Mattis holding Ella's Sheepy

Happy 3rd Birthday Ell-bell!!

For Ella's 3rd Birthday we went to Disneyland for a long weekend! We had so much fun!

Mommy-pop-pop showed Ella how to put on make-up so she had to bring her lip gloss on the trip too....

Evil Eye Ella

So Greg's step-sister got married and Ella was a flower girl, but she did not want her picture taken and would not let go of Greg's hand. She loves her daddy!
