Homemade Gifts...

Before saying my final good byes to the RE staff at St Germaine Catholic Church, I decided to make them a few gifts.  I used up some scrap wood, fabric, and flowers and made these cute crosses.  After finishing the crosses, I began working on a special piece for my friend Morgan.  She had pinned a similar project as something she wanted to make.  I figured I would help her out and make it for her.  Her 35th birthday was coming up and I can't not give a present to someone on their birthday, especially when they've been such a fabulous friend!  The gift wasn't where I stopped, though.  We had planned a final Moms Night Out (final for me with my move) so I planned her birthday celebration that evening.  I hope we made her evening a memorable 35!

Large Families Eat Out Sometimes...

Every now and again, you'll see our large crew out grabbing a bite to eat.  Tonight, we decided to take the kids to Olive Garden for dinner, celebrating the confirmation of our move back down to the valley.  This meal will be one of the final meals in the Prescott area before we close on our home.

Sweet, Beautiful Rosalia...

Mocha Waits For Liliana EVERY. SINGLE. DAY...

Ready for 15...

Never a cake for this birthday girl!

With the upcoming move, we kept the birthday celebrations pretty low key with a requested sugar cookie fruit pizza, small gifts (homemade and bought), and tickets to see 5 Seconds Of Summer!!!!! OMG tickets to see her favorite boy band at the moment!  Happy 15th Birthday to Liliana!

Wine Festival With Friends...

Wine, Beer, Appetizers, and the most beautiful chocolate I've ever seen with friends.  Just like everywhere else I've ever lived, I manage to make friendships that last longer than the time I reside in those places.  Morgan and Christine are friends I will stay in touch with.  Friends that will come visit and are welcome to visit us anytime!  Our ladies day out was so much fun and very memorable!
