And here they are again swimming together!!!

This is Marcus and his friend Carson...they had so much fun together :)

After all the hoopla that day she was tuckered out...

Bed Fort

Last night we helped Marcus build a fort in his room to sleep in.  I told him how aunt Brooke and I would do that in the living room all the time...it is fun!  He had all his stuffed animals in there with him :)


Copper wants to join in...Marcus wants you to take notice of all his WWE action figures.

I just made banana muffins and soon I will have the blue bowl to use as well! Soooo excited!!!

Marcus in action!

Marcus getting ready to show me his stellar moves on the diving board!

He is ready for lift off!

I am air borne  just like the high flyer evan bourne (wwe wrestler)
Marcus added that himself!

He was successful at NOT belly flopping!
Its been a fun relaxing day just hanging out.  Mackenzie is listening to music and conditioning her hair and Mitch and Max are at the Dbacks game and when they get back we are going to grill.
Hope everyone enjoys their long weekend!

Breaking News!!!!!!

My sister just made my day!  Look at this beautiful bowl!!!  She found it in Burlingame at an Antique store today. Yes, there is a story behind it.  But first, thank you to my sister for finding it!  Several years ago there was an auction at my grandparents house(my dads parents) and my maternal grandmother bought a set of pyrex dishes at the sale, but it was missing a bowl. And when my grandmother came to visit me she gave me those bowls.  They mean a lot to me.   I have the yellow, red and green bowl but the blue was the one she no longer had.  I have been on a mission since then, looking at thrift stores all over Phoenix hoping someday I would find a blue pyrex bowl to complete my set.  I even had some of my clients who enjoy rummaging at sales to keep an eye out for it.  Well, my sister found it today and I am so happy!  Thank you Sissy!

Summer Lovin' Dance

Getting ready to leave for her first dance without her dad...all her dances in the past have been family related.  I think dad is feeling a little heartbroken.

...and I actually feel the same way :(

She is going with her BFF Vanessa and then to her house for a sleepover..

How grown up and pretty they look!
