Mariyah's Soccer party & Trophy

Mariyah did great this soccer season and she had an end of the season pizza party at the park. She loves her trophy and it's her 1st year playing and I am sure she will be playing for lots more seasons:). She is so excited about her trophy that she wanted to hold it while she slept. I said it would probably be a good idea if she put it on her shelf that way she didn't break it.

This is the cake I ordered for her party. These were their colors and their
team was the bumble bees.

She loves her trophy even though they spelled her name wrong!

Mariyah lost her 1st tooth


Mariyah has been anticipating the day she would finally loose a tooth!!! The day finally came and she is so happy that the tooth fairy brought her money.

She was so funny because I said ok let me take a picture and it was hard to get a good view until she did a mad face and then you can really see it.

Joshua's 30!!!

Joshua turned 30 yesterday!! The girls and I made him breakfast and served it to him in bed(he was out of bed and Mariyah said dad go back to bed because we have a surprise for you).

We made him a poster with different candy sayings and the girls had fun decorating it and giving it to him. We went to church and after church I spend time in the kitchen making him a lava cake which was a first for me. I am happy to report that when everyone ate it they said it was good so I hope they were telling the truth lol.

I made dinner at our place and took it over to my parents and my mom was also cooking part of the meal. We had Orange chicken, spicy garlic and kung pow chicken and fortune cookies etc. Overall it was a wonderful day and Joshua wanted to say thank you to the family who gave him gift cards and for all the phone calls:).

This is the only picture of me on his birthday holding the cake. He was looking at Mariyah but did blow out the 30 candles:)

Thanksgiving Weekend
We had a wonderful thankful thanksgiving with lots of family:). My mom's 2 brothers came as well as their families and my grandparents. The girls had so much fun jumping on the trampoline with my cousins and having a great time. I am thankful for such a wonderful thanksgiving and for all the memories we shared with family thanksgiving weekend.
My mom, sister, Aunt and I also got up on black Friday at 4:15am and we headed to go shopping. It was so crazy but lots of fun and the best part was the amazing deals we got. I love deals so it was well worth the lack of sleep(since I went to bed at 1am) for the great deals.
We also went on my grandparents pontoon boat and the weather was gorgeous and such a perfect day to go on the lake. The girls had fun playing on the boat as well as the playground.
Overall it was an amazing weekend and can't wait for next thanksgiving when all my cousins and their families are here from California:). I have more pictures from my parents camera that I will post sometime soon:)

Halloween Night

I am finally getting around to posting our halloween pictures. That evening we went to the trunk or treat at the church and then we went trick or treating. The girls had so much fun and after we went trick or treating we went to my parents and the girls helped pass out some candy and also enjoyed eating some of their candy.

Nice job decorating

Mariyah's school had a parade Friday morning as well as a class party. I was able to help out in the classroom and it was really fun. I played Halloween Bingo with her class and they did lots of other activities as well.

Pre Halloween Fun

The girls loved decorating their pumpkins and this year they wanted to paint them instead of carving them. They also had a fun time painting themselves.
