Spending Time with Great-Grandma Eastin

My Grandma (dad's mom) came down from Utah for a couple of weeks. So, I took a day off of work to spend time with her and with the kids at my parents house. Here are some pictures.


Spending time with Nicole.


Helping Nicole walk.



Playing tea with Danielle.



Having a heart to heart talk with Danielle.


Just relaxing with Danielle and I think Danielle is either talking to Jeremy or Pappa.


We were so lucky to have Great-Grandma come down and visit. We can't wait for to come back and visit (for even longer) :)

I will post more pictures from when the kids went swimming at their house :)

Father's Day

We had a great time on Father's Day this year. Jeremy's favorite game of all time, is Mike Tyson's Punch Out, and if you know him, he can play that game all day and win everytime...lol Well, the Wii came out with, of course, a new version of the game. I actually got it for him a couple of weeks ago, so I will have to take a picture of him playing it and post it.

So, we went to Red Lobster for Father's Day. Yes, I only had chicken since I don't eat seafood...lol

Danielle tried a little bit of seafood and loved it.







Nicole loved the Mac-N-Cheese that we ordered for Danielle. She looks a little confused right here...lol



Then we had some dessert. As you can tell, the girls LOVED it. I have to admit, it was pretty good :)




And, a family picture.



We had a great day and hope Jeremy did too. We love you very much and you are a great dad and husband :)

P.S. Happy father's day to my dad and Jeremy's dad too :) We love you.

5 year wedding anniversary June 4th.

So, Jeremy and I have been married for 5 years now. Seems like yesterday he was picking out my pageant shoes for Miss Arizona. For those of you who don't know, Jeremy and I started dating the week I was doing a Miss AZ Preliminary and then for the Miss AZ in June. I needed to do a lot of shopping for the June Pageant and he decided to go with me... Such a sweetheart. I knew I had a great catch. So, he found my dress shoes and they were perfect. Granted, I have never worn them since the pageant but I still have them just in case... :)

That was a little off topic, but anyways...

It was five years ago that we walked down the aisle together at the Wright House in Mesa. We took so many pictures, talked with friends and family, had our first dance and loved every minute of that day. We have come a long ways since then and know we are getting stronger and stronger as a couple (and now a family) each and every day. We have 2 beautiful daughters and I look forward to raising them with Jeremy and living our lives. I love you more than anything, sweetheart.

So, a little recap of what happened on our 5th wedding anniversary...

I was sitting at work on June 4, 2009 and having a rough day... Then, all of the sudden, someone at work walks in with a box for me. I opened it and out came 18 roses and a vase. He got me roses :) It was the best surprise ever.

We went to Carrabas (spelling??) for dinner. We had never had it before and kept saying we wanted to try it. Well, it was fantastic. Since it was our first time there, they brought over appetizers and it was YUMMY. So, anyone who has never been to Carrabas and likes Italian food, it's great. You will have left overs for sure.

I look forward to another 5, 10, 15 and many more anniversaries. Love you.

Nicole is 11 months old.

Nicole turned 11 months old on 6-2-09. Time really does fly by. Just wanted to post some pictures (I know I don't post many pictures, and I am trying to get better)

We went to my brother's daughter's birthday (so my niece..lol) for her first birthday party on Sunday. We don't get to see my brother's family a lot because they live in the west valley and we are in Queen Creek. It was good to see everyone. We had so much fun. Here are some pictures from to water day.

Picutres of Nicole.







Pictures of Danielle. She wasn't a great fan of the water until Jeremy went with her.






Pictures of the birthday girl Ava and Nicole, and a picture of Danielle. We all tease that they need to get togther more because Nicole doesn't have teeth (they are barely poking thru) and has a lot of hair, when Ava has a lot of teeth and hardly any hair...lol
