John Mayer sighting

Yesterday we were at Stater Bros getting groceries in 29 palms, and we saw John Mayer in the check out right beside us!!!!! It was cool! I said hey Donny look in the line beside us and he did a double take, and said hey, that's John Mayer. LA is only 2 hours away, so maybe he was here with family. I wish I would of had my camera, but it was at home, of course.

Donny planned a surprise party for me and my girlfriends. It was a lot of fun, we watched chick flicks all night and had some good drinks. We made some great memories together, it was a blast!!! Can't wait to party with these girls at the Marine Ball on Thursday!

Happy Birthday Marines!

Katie Dance class and Rooster at the skate park

Katie is taking ballet and jazz class every Tuesday, and loves every minute of it! She looks forward to it every week. Katie is having so much fun this year, and she has the BEST teacher ever, she's so wonderful with them. Katie has her first dance recital on December 6th, and it's going to be sooooo cute. I wish my family lived closer so they could see her.

Rooster also loves Tuesdays, because Katie's dance class is right beside the skate park. He takes his scooter all over it. He's getting really good, and starting to do some big drop ins (I'm learning the cool lingo, too!) I can't believe some of the stunts that boy can do already.

September Disney land and California Adventure Trip

So I'm behind on posting again, I've got a bunch to do and alot of pictures to download. The first is of our second trip to Disneyland this summer. We had park hopper tickets that didn't expire, so we decided to go back and use them. It was perfect, September is definitely the time to go. We had front row seats to every show and no wait in any of the lines. The kids were so excited about going back and Katie did great on all the rides this time. We had a great family time, and can't wait to go back next summer!

My 30th birthday SURPRISE from Donny!

So I was riding in the car with Donny today, and he said he has something to tell me, but he's not sure if he should, because he doesn't want to ruin the surprise. So of course I start begging, because I hear the word "surprise." After 10-15 minutes of begging, he finally tells me that all of my girlfriends are coming over Saturday to have an all night girls night. He's been planning this for a couple of weeks. I am so excited, we are going to do wood painting, jello shots, games, and chick flicks all night long!!!!!! I'm glad he told me so I could plan some drinks and fun games, plus my house will be cleaned and I wont be in my pj's when they show up...hehe. He's such a sweetie to try and surprise me with this. I love surprises and I think he did a good job of keeping it a secret. Wish all of my friends and sisters could be with me. Happy birthday to me:)

GO ME!!!!

So I am busting my ass to get into shape, and I've been working out faithfully for three weeks. Yesterday I did Turbo Jam sculpting video (you need to try it, it's awesome!) with my friend Rebekah for 45 minutes, then rode my bike for two miles to pick up Rooster from school (the temp was 102) , and then went hiking to an oasis up two mountains for three miles. Anyways, I'm going to be posting before and after photos soon. I'm really excited about getting into shape. Wish me luck!!!!

"Quoting" from Katie, again.

Last night we had birthday cake and ice cream for Donny's birthday, and of course Katie ate every drop (she's a junk food junkie), then she brought me her bowl and said "look mom I ate my supper really good, can I have a popsicle now?" It was so funny! I guess since she ate her dessert she thought she need to be treated with a second one. That girl says the funniest things!
