9 year anniversary at Firebirds restaurant, it was so romantic, they had this guy playing music. It was so fun & I can't believe it's been 9yrs that me & Ryan have been married. Time flies way too fast!

Our picnic at the park

It was such a nice day for a picnic, so I brought out our picnic basket that we've used like twice before this (I've had it for 9yrs) Gabriel thought it was so cool & wanted to throw everything we had in our kitchen in it. Gabriel & Bella rolled up in his Jeep, there wasn't enough room for me so I had to walk. The kids raced eachother on the grass since the playground was already too hot for them to play on. These beautiful days are numbered here in arizona.

I can't believe how big Gabriel looks!

The Lake

Our saturday's will be spent here at the lake, well if were not too busy with work. We love to come and hang out on the lake all day. Gabriel love's to go fishing, Bella & I love the junk food & the scenery. Ryan love's to drive the boat, he forgets he has his two little kids in the boat sometimes and goes way too fast, at least I think so. He says he has to cuz Gabriel tells him "Go super fast daddy!" I don't know if Gabriel love's the speed so much cuz he'll sit under the dashboard the whole time. The lake is our getaway from everything & everybody.

We just moved from Queen Creek to Chandler & are finally getting settled. I absolutely hate moving!!! I love that were closer to the business & everything which is so nice cuz now were home more.

This is Gabriel's & Bella's favorite spot, they call it the beach.
Building a dam, it was pretty big when they were done.
I went to Utah for the Salt Lake 1/2 marathon. I ran with Rosa. It was so fun & beautiful! So different than running here in flat AZ. I beat my last time 2:03.yea!

My Birthday

My 28th birthday! My cake was all lite up, I definetly don't feel 28. It was a good day, Ryan took the day off & he gave me the day off too he made me breakfast, waffles my favorite yummy! Ryan kept telling me how beautiful I was the whole day, I think he didn't want me to feel bad about my age. It didn't bother me like I thought it would, maybe next year I might shed some tears.Haha. We went hiking, dinner at Olive Garden (also my favorite) & hung out at the bowling alley.Ryan & Moy played pool & played video games. It was a good time. I hope my next birthday doesn't come too fast.

Beautiful ladies!

Hiking on my b-day

We went hiking on my birthday to San Tan flats, it was a 2mile hike. It was so beautiful, a perfect day for this. The kids loved it, they collected the rocks & sticks along the way. They made it half way, the last of it we carried them. Bella fell asleep in my arms so it was dead weight but it was fun.

Resting after the first mile.


Gabriel found a walking stick.

Cheese!!
They are so loveable sometimes.

Abuelo's Birthday Party

Abuelo's 80th b-day party, we had at El Zocalo. It was good times, yummy food, music & all the family.

Bella had a ball dancing to the music, she's my little dancer.

What we've done this year so far

My first half marathon, 2:17min. It was sooo hard but such a great accomplishment. It was an awesome feeling crossing the finish line Ryan, Gabriel & Bella were waiting for me.

First time taking the boat out to the lake this year, it was so beautiful. I'm excited for our summer days at the lake.
