Off he goes!

What a handsome little devil he is! Then you wonder why I wanted more kids! Look at him!

I can't believe all my kids are in school now. Its the craziest feeling ever! I've been at home for almost 6 years and the time has flown by way too fast. Today is the 1st day I will be at home without any kids. Joey started Pre-school today and boy was he excited! It was kinda sad for me too because he's my little baby. I said my goodbye to him and he blew me a huge kiss! He was already sitting and working on some blocks. He'll only go 2 times a week but your probably thinking what I'll be doing with a little bit of free time. Well I am going to go the gym, clean my house, scrapbook, mabye watch some TV, go to the grocery store...Lots to do!!!

Baby Shower Invites!.

Since my older sister is pregnant with her first child, I kinda said I would do the invitations. They aren't any regular invites. They have to be carefully designed and made exceptionally cute! Its a girl so that adds more cuteness to the invitations. Lots of pink! So here are a few of the 10 that I am sending her. She needs to pick one of the 10 so I could get started on them in the next week. I'd like to complete them by the first or second week of October. I am giving myself a full month to do them because we have a huge family and she has loads of friends...so needless to say I'll be doing quite a few invitations

This one is my favorite. Love the green and pink combo!

Its a baby shower! Get it...pregnant woman carrying an umbrella.

Look at the baby face! Love it!


Enjoy these awesome cards.
Have a great week!

Our First Day of School

Look how beautiful she looks!!! She was nervous on her first day of 7th grade but came home on the school bus. She had a great day and made new friends :)

Look at this handsome little dude!!! All ready for Kindergarten :)

On my way to Kindergarten!

Davey Jones!!!

Here is Davey Jones from the Monkeys!!! I remember watching re-runs of The Monkeys and having the biggest crush on him. Now he's just an old fart...just kidding. He still can move pretty good. He was jumping up and down. He performed a concert by the lakeside RV park our friends stayed at this weekend. We watched his perfomance for a while.

With the excitment of the concert, the kids were in the mood for some dancing!!!

Shake it guys!!!

Vinny the Wild Boy!!!

7 days without pizza makes one weak!!!!! Ask Vinny that and he will say YES!

Our little guy is so brave!!! He drove off by himself at the race track. I had a tear or two as he drove away. He drove so good it was kind of scary

WARNING.....5-year old driving around town...expert driver without a driver's license!!!! Watch out! Call the authorities if you find him. Call 555-1234 and ask for Mom or Dad.

Just because!!!!!!!

So Wednesday, I get a call from Gabe saying that I should stick around the house because we were having someone come over at 1:30 p.m. to give us an estimate for the pool. I was bummed because I had to run to Wal-mart and the post office. So I waited and waited and nothing! I got upset because I didn't want to wait until Thursday to run my errands. So the doorbell rings at about 3:45 p.m. It was a lady holding flowers. She said "Are you Sandra", I said "Yes". My first thought was Lyon Homes sending us flowers as a "thank-you" for buying one of there homes. But it turns out Gabriel sent them to me :) I usually get flowers once every 3 or 4 months but haven't had them in awhile. I thought "He did something wrong". I was wrong...he sent them "JUST BECAUSE".

My new house!!! I love it! Its very big compared to where we were before. We went from less than 1600 sq. ft to 2,445 sq. ft. I love it!!! The picutre is kind of dark. I took it on a well lite day. It was 113'! We are loving it here! There are alot of retired people here so it kind of feels like we are retired...but with little kids :) We go swimming every other day. The desert sun is a killer! We are going to talk to a pool contractor this weekend in Vegas. Even though we have a pool a few blocks down, everyone has a pool here! Its cooled down alot from last week. It was about 112'-115' last week and its been under 110' this week. Anyway back to the house....I still need to hang some things on the walls. There are some artificial plants I want to buy for the house, a big mirror for the hallway, a table for the hallway, a table with 6 chairs for the kitchen area, and paint all the bedrooms. There's much more to be added to that list. Enjoy the pics!

Master Bedroom. Love my new bedroom set :)

Master bathroom. The kids love bathing in the tub!

My favorite room of all!!!! My scrapbook room!!!! LOVE IT!!!!! Still trying to fix it up. I need to paint [pink] and hang some goodies on the wall. I've already began creating in it :)

The formal dining room. At this stage, it doesn't look very formal with all of those boxes! We might buy an air hockey table and make it a game room.

The 2nd full bathroom. This belongs to the kids.

The hallways that leads to the 3 bedrooms. Our room is on the other side of the house.

Vinny and Joey's bedroom. We are still waiting for there dresser and end tables to arrive. They love there room!

Christina's room. Kinda small but she has the cutest furniture. Her aunt/godmother bought her a new comforter so I'll show you the finished product later :)

I have a laundry room :)

My china hutch...I think we might get rid of it because we are going to re-do the kitchen cabinets. Didn't really like the color of them. I wanted something darker like chocolate.

My kitchen from the family room :) I am not liking that color! Gabriel picked it. I hope we could re-paint it . Anyway, I love the kitchen! Way bigger than my old house.

Vinny wants to pose for everyone. My Family Room :) Oh, I just noticed, he needs a haircut. Can you say "The Beatles".
