Newest Member of our Family

Meet the newest member of our little family. His name is Stitch. Stitch is a 3 month old Yorkie Terrier. We love him so much. He is such a joy in our family. He loves to play with his tiny tennis ball, his tiny rope and chew on his tiny bones. Every toy we bought had to be miniture size because he is so small. Right now he weighs in at 2.4 pounds. The vet said that he should get to be about 7-10 pounds but I honestly think he wont get more than 6 or 7.







Old Friends

This is my friend Ashley. We were best friends in elementary school. After elementary school, Ashley and her family moved to Missouri. We haven't seen each other in about 12 years. She came down and we got to spend some time together at Disneyland. It was great to see her again and catch up on old times.

Flying Building??

I took this picture at my cousin's wedding in Missouri. Its a reflection from one of the windows. If you look closely it looks like a floating building in the sky with a walkway leading to it.

St. Louis Wedding Trip

In the beginning of June we flew to St. Louis, MO for my cousin, Christine's, wedding. It was a really fast trip, it was extremely hot, but it was a lot of fun. We stayed at the Hyatt in St. Louis, where the wedding took place. It was a beautiful wedding on top of the hotel. Here are some of the pictures from our short trip.

There was a breast cancer walk that Saturday so they dyed the fountain pink.


Fun fountain at a park that a lot of kids were playing in, so Jared thought he would play too.

We went for a walk and found this really old City Hall building.

Congratulations Nathan & Christine!!

Very Proud Wife

So, for those that don't know, my husband make's Apps for the Android Market. He has about 7 of them out in the Market right now. Last night he got a message from one of his followers on Twitter saying that one of his App's was mentioned in an article on CNN.com. Click on the link (Should Android Apps List Minimum Requirements?)to be directed to the news article. Jared's App is called 'Droid Overclock'. By clicking on his App in the article, you will be directed to the Market, and be able to see what his App is about and some of the other Apps that he has created.

I am so incredibly proud of all the work Jared has put into his work. I never thought that making an App would take so much time and that so much went into it. I am so grateful for my wonderful husband who works so hard to help our family.

Little Mermaid: Under The Sea

After work today I met up with some co-workers to preview the new Little Mermaid ride at California Adventures. This was the only picture I could get of the ride. This is the beginning, where you get into your giant sea shell and take a wonderful ride under the sea. I am so happy that I got to go on this ride. It was amazing!! The characters were so life-like. Disney has really come far from their days of Pirates of the Caribbean and It's A Small World. I can't wait to ride it again!

Lunch Break Touring the Galaxy

I had a great lunch break at work today. A co-worker won a time for a group of us to go preview the Star Tours ride at Disneyland between 9AM - 1PM. We went during our lunch break today and it was AMAZING!!

I loved the ride before they changed anything, it was a classic ride. They really improved the ride with the special effects and the over-all look of the ride. The ride has 54 different endings to it. I love how they incorporated the new Star Wars movies into the ride.

I can't wait to go on the ride again to see what ending I get. I am so grateful that I work close enough to Disneyland so I was able to go on the ride during my lunch break.
