Today is the day


It's here.
Today is the day where we pack up our rain boots, begin the good byes, and
venture out into unfamiliar territory.
As I watch the house we have worked so hard on empty, I get sorta sad. Okay a lot sad.
 This is going to be harder than I thought.
Please say a little prayer for us.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

THIS is what the houses look like in AZ. Peach and terracotta pot roofs. Ew! Oh, and let us not forget the fancy "dryscaping".

P.S. I dare you to try and tell me my kids aren't adorable!;)
Yes they make me crazy...often...but at least they're lookers!

Taking a break at the park.

Perfect Pedi's!

Here's my new did-it-myself mani.
Used my all time favorite color Oh Cabana Boy (HOT pink) by Orly topped with
Only Gold For Me at Sephora. Bright pink and gold? Add a flamingo and a little umbrella and I'm all set for Palm Springs.

Now for the cutest party idea I've seen in a LONG time.
"Pedi's by the Pool"

Do you follow THIS blog? It's called Hostess with the Mostess. You should. It's a goodie!
Happy Pedi's!
P.S. To my fitness friends,
That baked oatmeal recipe will be coming soon!
I get home from AZ tomorrow.

Suite Life

Welcome to our home.

It's pretty fancy.

They make our beds for us.

They treat us like VIP's at breakfast and they serve the BEST orange juice ever!

We have to take a secret elevator to get to our room.

They think we're the cutest kids alive when we leave for school each morning.
(This hotel location is a "business" dude location. My kids are the only children around.)

And we get to swim everyday, sometimes twice...

And our mom lets us eat treats in our bed.
It's a suite life!

We have been living at the Hilton for the last 10 days. 10 days! Yep. I'm done. The kids are loving it but, this Mama has had enough. School started here last week so we rushed down to get started with everyone else. It's been sorta fun. Eating out and having someone else make my bed. But, I'm ready for my own place. Speaking of own place....we picked up the keys yesterday. It's just a rental but it has a pretty cool pool!
Come visit!

It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

Colored Jeans
Hot off the runway, these babies are all around. If you haven't seen these then you must be living in a black hole. They may take you back to the good old 80's (love those 80's) but if you want to liven up your boring bottoms, your might want to consider purchasing a pair. Why? Why not? They're cute, colorful and full of personality! Which color of the rainbow would you choose? I'm eyeing the red and purple. Ooh, but yellow is oh-so-buttery!
THESE are super kickin' cute!
It's Trendy Tuesday...Do you DARE?

It's FFF (Fabulous Fashion Friday)


Dear Prince Charming,

Remember last night when we were talking on the phone and you were saying  you were feeling guilty about going to see a movie? Does that mean I'm supposed to be feeling guilty about purchasing these? How about we just call it even?
Miss you tons!

Blue suede shoes. Got your back Elvis!
It's FRIDAY.
Be fabulous!




Ahem children. Which one of you were sneaking around with the camera again?

So Long Rainy Days

We're Moving!
The time has come for us to say good bye to the Pacific Northwest and explore a new chapter in our life. One in which I'm VERY excited for. On August 19 we will be wrapping up our memories here and taking them to Gilbert, Arizona. My Prince Charming got a promotion. (Great job handsome!) Although there are a lot of things that will be missed here, we are grateful for this opportunity. Of course, now that my house is complete it's time to leave. Typical! But...I finally get the sun I've been longing for. Yippee!
Obviously these next few weeks will be hectic but, I'll keep in touch. Promise!
Wish us luck!
