An informal update..

So we finally made it out to Orlando for our new jobs at Pinnacle..Hooray! Hopefully we do well enough this summer to make it enough to buy our own place when we get back.

The plane ride out here was pretty uneventful and Payton did a really good job of sleeping the whole time!

I can't believe how big my half sister Kasia has grown, she reminds me so much of my little sister Mckenzie when she was that age and makes me miss her. She's been a big help with keeping Payton occupied while Joe and I relax before the summer season starts tomorrow.

We've been swimming a lot, thanks to my dad's backyard pool and are both pretty sun burned..ouch! I'm just glad were getting used to the sun before everyone else gets here.

Happy 3rd to me!

If you don't know already, Vanessa is inlove with Spongebob....so naturally we decked her birthday out by renting a Spongebob room with a Spongebob cake and presents.

Happy 1st to me!

I decided to go all out for Payton's first this year, and let me tell you...that was the first and last. I spent probably 6hrs total on her cake and 3 days shopping for decorations and a dress and she wont even remember it...I guess that's what pictures and videos are for :)

Payton's first car.

Happy Birthday to me.

Eggs and Jellybeans

We got to have Nessa this year for Easter which was fun. It' crazy how the holidays become fun again when you have kids.

Lions and Tigers and Bear oh my!

We took Nessa to Zoo Lights last winter for some one on one time with me and Joe. It was pretty cool seeing all the animals come out at night.

We decided that since we took Nessa there alone, we would also give Payton the chance to see the animals as well when it got a little bit warmer.
