"MBW"



I finally got around to taking a sewing class to learn how to properly make outfits. I learned how to read patterns, sewing tricks, and get more familiar with my sewing machine. It took me 3 ( 2 hours) classes to complete my first patterned shirt! To complete the look, I decided to accessorize my "MBW" (made by Wendy) shirt with a belt. :)

We present our Caladiums!



After a couple of months, our caladiums have really grown into a beautiful bed. This weekend we spent some much needed time cleaning our garden and planting the rest of grass plugs around our front yard. Nick decided to try putting some dry wall around our plants to add calcium and to block weeds in our garden. :)

4th of July 2011


This 4th of July we got a real treat! We met our Texas family in Orlando for a fun packed 4th of July Disney Day. The firework show were spectacular! Due to the long holiday weekend, we were able to stay an extra day and we got to experience Universal Studios for the first time. It was really neat! We rode some of the classic rides like Jaws and the Simpson's ride. It was a nice long weekend full of patriotic celebration! ;)

Nick turns the big 2-5!


Nick turned the big 2-5 this past weekend. Nick didn't want a big celebration so we had a nice gathering with friends where we had steak, homemade cake, and a wonderful time. I took my camera but unfortunately I left the battery on the charger. So we don't have pictures to share at the moment, but our friends took a couple of pictures so, we'll be able to post some pictures soon. In the meantime, Nick wants to thank everyone for making his 25th birthday a very special one! :)
