Goodbye...

After years of talking about moving to Idaho, Dave, Lori & Alyssa have finally done it...they moved to IDAHO!!!!

We went down the 1st weekend of August for their going away party. The Moseley's hosted a fun, swimming going away party with yummy food. It was nice to hang out with all the family and spend some time with Dave, Lori & Alyssa before they left.

While we were down we discovered they still had a lot to pack and clean before the big move. I had nothing going so I volunteered to stay and help Lori get the rest of the house packed up and cleaned while Dave worked. Alyssa was such a huge help with the girls. Thank you again so much Boo, Ashley had a great time with you, I am sure Allison did too.

We wish you guys all the best and are happy that your dreams are finally coming true. We will miss you but look forward to vacations in Idaho. See you for Thanksgiving. =)

Grandma & Tio Pancho

We got to see my Mom, brother & his girlfriend Carmen a few weeks ago while we were down at Dan's parents house. It was great to see them, Ashley had fun playing with her Grandma and her Tio Pancho. Allison enjoyed meeting her Tio for the first time. Thank you guys for coming to meet up with us. We miss you guy so much!!

Summer Movies

Harkins Theaters does a summer movie program every summer. For just $7.00 a ticket you get 10 weeks worth of movies (1 movie a week), all are re runs, but the kids love it anyway. The great thing is the theater is full of kids so it doesn't matter how many times you get up to go potty or if they start talking half through the movie. =)

August 3rd wrapped up our last week of summer movies. Ashley, Allison and I had lots of fun going each week, even Dan got to join us a few times. Ashley loved running into all her friends, one week her and her little girlfriend (Lani) even coordinated their outfits. I had to post all these pictures because they were just too cute not too.

Zeno got to go with us to the last movie of the summer

Alli's New Bling

Yup we pierced Allison ears on July 31st, she was 14 weeks old, the same age we did Ashleys ears. She did really well and only cried for a second.

Kristina & Mark

My Cousin Kristina and her high school sweetheart Mark got engaged last Fall. Both recently graduated with their Bachelors Degrees from NAU and are currently working on their Masters Degrees before heading off to Medical school. They originally were gonna wait till after Medical school to get married and recently decided to move it up to next May. I got the privilege of doing their "engagement" session pictures for their save the date cards. Here are a few of my favorites. Congratulations Kristina & Mark, we are so excited for you and look forward to celebrating your special day with you. Thank you so much for allowing me to take your pictures. Love you guys!

ZUMBA

Remember at the beginning of the summer I told you about the Zumba class I was taking? Well, it finally came to an end. I had so much fun and got a great work out too. If you have never heard of it check it out it is awesome. We had to dress up for our last class, here are our class pictures. =)
