Jaime got his job!!

Jaime got a job offer with Sephoria this week. He starts on June 23rd and will be gone training for a week in Baltimore. We are so excited for a change, and change is always good. It will be hard for a while as he gets trained and they get up and running, but Jaime is always up for a challenge.

Better late than never!

Happy Father Day to my wonderful husband and wonderful daddy to my kids.



Happy Fathers Day to Jaime's dad, grandpa and brother.



Happy Fathers Day to my own dad and to my 3 wonderful brother in laws - Glen, Danny, and Steve. Hope you all had a wonderful day. You deserve. it!

Wow!! How Time Flies

I cannot believe that its already June. Carson is out of school and is ready for summer. He already thinks he can stay up late. We will just see about that. Here is a self portrait that he took to show how excited he was that school was out.


Abbi had her dance recital tonight and she danced her little heart out. Well as good as a 4 year old will dance in front of a audience of 100 people. We are so proud of her.

I just got back from a show in Buffalo NY. The show was good but being with my Rusty Pickle friends makes it all worth it. Kim and Libby you are a blast to be with.

Niagara Falls was beautiful. I am so grateful that I have this kind a job where I can travel and see all the wonders of the world. Big Thanks to my wonderful husband and kids for letting me travel.
