Low Key Saturday

 We started our day with a run/walk.

Do not let her fool you, she can hang with the

best of them and rack up some miles.

 Then the kids spent the rest of the time playing.

 Rescue Bots and Legos!

 I spent the day in the kitchen!

I made egg cupcakes for breakfast

and roasted lots of vegetables for lunch.

Then I made healthy cupcakes.

Whole wheat, flax seed, prunes, and

Greek yogurt and few other things.

Then I iced the cupcakes with homemade

cream cheese icing.

( I used natural food dye, so that

makes it healthy. ;-) Right?)

 After a very long wait it was time

 for the movie to start!

 The Diva was so happy!

 He managed to watch the whole movie,

but he was not a fan and very sleepy!

It was just a low key Saturday

and we had a lot of fun.



Our Diva

 She is 7 and counting the days till

her next birthday! Her favorite color is pink

and her favorite food is raspberries.

 She is an adventurous eater

and always willing to try to new things!

 She loved sushi, but will stick with her

regular hummus.

 She wants to be a veterinarian and

fashion designer.

I got out the camera

and told her to give me best fashion looks.

 She had a blast with this!

 Each new outfit come with

a new personality.

 

 I can see so much of my

personality in her.

 

 We already bump heads

and I am sure the older she gets

the more often it will happen.

 

I'm glad she's got my personality.

I want her to stand strong for what

she believes.

To draw a line in the sand and refuse to

step over it.

To always believe in herself.

 

I want her to know that laughter

is  good  medicine and

a smile can open

a lot of doors.

 To dance in the rain

even if she is the only one!

To trust in herself and to talk

to God often.

 

 

I want her to always remember

that life is short and true friends

 will always have your back.

 

To love with all her heart

and believe in fairy tales.

 

I want her to never ever forget

just how much we love her

and that she will always be

our sweet baby girl.

 

 



Playtime

 Legos in the morning.

 Fashion Diva in the morning!

(I need to work on a post all about her

and her love of fashion.)

 

 Legos for all in the evening!

A Little bit of This

and a little bit of that.

We may have spent the day

playing with Legos.

My OCD may have got

 the best of me when building a house.

(pictures from a few days ago)

(His fake pouty face)

The kids  stayed in

pajamas all day long

and it was another

rainy day.

 It was my favorite type of day!

I checked nothing off my to do list,

but it was a great day. 

 

Some days they drive me crazy,

but I love them so much!

(Saturday Night Fever remake maybe?)

 Spending a day knee deep in Legos

was just the type of day I needed.

(Always all smiles)

My to do list can wait, because

before long my kids will be

to big and cool to play

Legos with me. 

(Growing up way to fast)

It was a great day and my Lego house

totally rocked!

 



What a show!

We got to watch it all from the front porch



Happy 4th of July

tire; we will not falter, and we

will not fail.

Peace and Freedom will prevail.
