Two Years ago today......

George and I held a beautiful tiny red-faced screaming baby girl, a real little person, and I wasn't at all sure what to do with her. Today, this tiny red-faced baby girl turns 2 years old. Where has the time gone. Every time,I think about it, my eyes tear up. You have been such a blessing to us, you are our world.

Happy Birthday, Briana!!!! We love you.

For Sale........

Well, after a lot of thought and deliberation we have made the decision to put our house for sale. George and I are sad, but we have to do what's best for us. The real estate business is not what it used to be. Work is slow for a lot of us in this business. A few of our friends who are in the same field, have placed their homes for sale too. Yes, as they say the bubble has burst. I am sad, but at the same time excited, go figure. We have looked to see what and where we can afford to buy a new home, I am happy to say, we will be looking around where my brother, uncle and my cousin live, they all live 10 mins for each other. We right now live 1 1/2 hour (with no traffic) away from them. One of our friends is trying to convince us to move to Stanwood, WA. where they just moved to a year ago. No thanks. I am a California girl, give me sunshine and ocean.....not snow.

I hope and pray that the house sales fast and we can get to the next chapter of our lives.

Happy Independence Day!!

On July 4, 1776, we claimed our independence from Britain and Democracy was born. Every day thousands leave their homeland to come to the "land of the free and the home of the brave" so they can begin their American Dream.

Thank you all Uniform man and woman for your courage, sacrifice and serve !!

Anthony I miss you and can't wait to have you finally home.

7 Random Things......

I have been tagged by Sara, Abby and La, Thanks girls :). So this is how it works. I must post the rules, 7 random things about me and then tag others to do the same. Sound fair enough, right? These are the rules…. each player starts with 7 random facts about themselves on their Blog. People who are tagged need to blog 7 facts about themselves and post the rules as well. At the end of their blog list 7 people you are tagging. Let them know that they are tagged by leaving them a comment.


So here are 7 random things about me.....

1) I love to read before going to bed.
2) I love Summer!
3) I love to look out the back window & watch the pretty birdies play in the water inside our water fountain
4) I love crossword puzzles.
5) I love to watch Briana's personality change by the minute. She will be a very determined young lady.
6) I hate all the squirrels and rabbits that get into our backyard, eating my beautiful flowers!
7) I spend to much time on message boards & surfing the web. I guess I am an Internet addict.


I am tagging everyone who visits...........HUGS!

Where has the week gone......

Not much happening here. Briana's has had a cold for almost a week. She's had fever for about two days. We took her to her doctor on Friday afternoon and she has a cough, runny nose, ear infection and an eye infection. This is the first time she's been this sick. Now today, I have a sore throat and feel weak. Argh! I hate being sick.

So, yesterday, I went house shopping with my best friend, saw some okay homes, we did see one home that we both went "wow" when we opened the door. I really like that home. She needs to sell her home first and then see what she finds. Hope, this house we both like doesn't sell, til she can sell hers first. Will see what happens.


Hope all have had a nice week and week-end.


Thanks for visiting. HUGS!
