Game Night and Avery Takes Control of the Camera!!!

Tonight we played Uno, the one where you press the button and machine spits them out at you. Uno Blasto? I don't know the name. But we like that game, it's actually really fun.

This was Avery's first official game to play with us. This is a great game for her to learn and recognize colors and numbers!!

Jason kept giving me +2s and +4s, so I literally had half of the deck by the end of the game. See the one on the right? That was my stack at the end.

There was no WAY I was going to win - so I just helped Avery win!

And she did!!

Then, Avery had so much fun taking pictures with my camera. Here are some of my favorites!! We kept having to move into the shot because she wouldn't really aim...

This just reminded me of when Sophia was little and we used to play games with her. She was only 4 and didn't understand, so we would all just pretend we didn't see her cards and just help her. Tonight, Sophia said, "I don't want Avery to play she's too little!" and we said, "Sophia, remember when you were little and we helped you play?" Of course she didn't, but now she knows how her brother felt all those years ago!

It's so weird when stuff like that starts to happen - one kid gets older and isn't the youngest anymore. Crazy! Here are just a couple of the beautiful (and silly) girls. Good night!!

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.
