Seattle Part 3

Shari always sees this beautiful tree on the way to her house, and she kept telling us she wanted to get our pictures taken in front of it. It really is the most beautiful tree, out in the middle of so many beautiful trees! But all trees there are green and this one was the prettiest shade of purplish-pink blossoms.

We decided to take a trip to Snoqualmie Falls in Washington to see the beautiful waterfall. On this day, Avery was NOT having it. She fussed and fussed and FUSSED in her carseat on the way there, then cried when we got there and then FUSSED on the way back home. I tried to enjoy myself as much as I could, but I have to say that my stress level with a crying, upset baby was high. I will say, the waterfall was really pretty. There was this really neat looking resort on the edge of it that would be really cool to stay at! We had coffee and looked over the edge, as Avery took a nap in her harnass-thing on her daddy's chest. Then, I could really enjoy myself!

This was my first real time to ever hear her cry nonstop. Got to say, not a fan. :-)

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best.   So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System.     This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst

It was a very good day.

I love it when God smiles upon us. I mean, He smiles upon us all the time. But sometimes, it's like sunshine, and Christmas morning, and rainbows, and babies, and awesomeness. On steroids. And I know that those times are not always permanent, so I learn to really wrap myself in His goodness, to take it all in, be happy, and just sit back and wait to see what He is going to do in my life. We have been struggling so long. I knew it was only a matter of time before things would be OK again. Where we would feel a little stability. Where we would take all of the things we learned while struggling and apply then when times are good. We have alot of great things going on in our lives right now. Some really great things. Some amazing, mindblowing, off the grid kind of great things. I wish I could share more, but for right now, let's just say that we are incredibly blessed with some great opportunities God is putting in our lives. I leave you with a gorgeous picture of our biggest bl

Dancing With Dad

I have been working on a project these last couple of weeks for my previous company. Yesterday, I was working on my computer and heard roaring laughter coming from Avery's room. I walk in and found Jason and Avery dancing and singing away.   By sheer coincidence, this popped up on my Timehop today. Avery was only 1 in this picture. Boy, are these kiddos lucky to have such a great dad! It makes me heart melt.
