4th of July weekend we went on a mini vacation to San Diego. We go to play on the beach and take Luke to Sea World for the first time. It was amazing to see his eyes light up at each new thing we got to see! We were there on Saturday which meant is was extremely busy but we got there early enough we got a lot of stuff in before the crowd hit. It would of been nice to have 2 days there as there was so much we did not get to do. Hopefully we will be able to go back soon though!

My all time favorite is Shamu!!! Seeing the show always brings tears to my eyes!!!

This is for you Steph, this first pic is of a place in Arizona called Christopher Creek.

This was of a jewelry party I had at our house with my friend from work, Christina.

Luke woke up from a nap and came into the living room and laid on the table and went back to sleep for about an hour- on the table.

Juven's 40th birthdy. These are our friends Heather and Brian.

We have just been relaxing since our company left and getting back into a groove. It sure was nice to have help with cooking and cleaning! Work had been going good. I'm finally getting comfortable at what I am doing (kinda!). It's all such a learning experience. Juven traveled to Cincinatti last week and Chicago this week. He has gotten to be such an expert at traveling! I am off to Vegas next week for a couple of days on my first girls trip since becoming a mommy!! I am super excited and can't wait to relax.
Luke is getting so big! I shopped for the first time in the "little boys" section and not in the baby section for clothes. I know he is not a baby but his wardrobe has still been in the baby section until now!! He has been quite the helper lately. He loves to help to anything he can- cleaning, watering plants, mowing the grass & putting out the garbage can. He loves to sing songs especially Kenny Chesney (wonder where he got that?)

It is soooo nice to have my in-laws and sister-in-law here!!! They cook, clean and help take care of Luke!!! We had a wonderful Easter!. Great church service that talked about slowing down to live life and not rush through everything then we had Juven's family and friends over to cook out and have an Easter egg hunt for the kids. We all had sooo much fun!!

Juven is in Ohio for the night but will be back tomorrow and enjoy his parents being here. It is so great to hear Luke say, "Love you Grandma!"
