I never thought I would be.... but I am thankful for Starbucks and their vanilla latte's with soy milk.  Sometimes I need an extra pick me up in the morning... or sometimes it's just that tasty....

I am thankful for Rock Band...it's just the little rockstar in me...

Friday November 11, 2011

So I'm a little late to the game... but for the (rest of the) month of November I am going to also write what I am thankful for.  This day I am thankful for the AD Mark Hollis at Michigan State for coming up with this wonderful idea for a basketball game.  The loss seemed minor compared to the bigger picture of this game.

My boys... I call this "Thug Life"

Monday November 7, 2011

Breslin and Tante Joyce!

Sunday November 6, 2011


Breslin and all of his lady friends in Michigan!  In the top picture is Hannah (Dana's little one about 7 weeks old), then pictured below is Baby Teagan (Anna's little one who is about 8 months old).  They are both so precious.  It is days like these that I wish we lived back in Michigan.  All of our friends are having babies, and they are all so close in age, I would love for Breslin to be friends with all of them.  Don't get me wrong, I love California... but we don't have many friends out here that are popping out babies.  I want Breslin to grow up with some good friends... and good people.  I know baby Hannah and baby Teagan would be great ones.  Oh well... I guess we'll just keep racking up the frequent flyer miles....

Can somebody change my diaper?

Friday October 28, 2011

Logan and Baby B.  They don't get to spend a lot of time together, and Logan doesn't get the chance to hold Brez that often... cuz he has to compete with the likes of Megan and Corey....  So this picture is pretty special... not a lot of opportunities for pictures of the two youngest together.

Dairy/Egg Free dessert....  The most difficult thing that is taking a hit is my sweet tooth with this no dairy, egg, and nut diet.... but Mitzi gave me this great idea, and it is a perfect fall dessert... Just mix pumpkin with Spice cake mix... and you have a lovely dairy free/egg free dessert... super tasty!
