puppy overload.

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

Jimmy and I recently drove to Whittier because he was asked to participate at a Worship service at our church, so while he was practicing, I met up with two of my closest friends Krystal and Taryne and hung out with them and their pups! And also met Tar’s new puppy Charlie, for the first time.


I was really happy, as you can see.

Charlie with his mom:

And Gigi with her mom:

It was so cute to see them interact and flirt/play. Gigi is fully grown and Charlie is still a puppy so she would get annoyed at how crazy and all over the place he was, but as soon as he stopped chasing her around, she would try to get his attention on her again! I think I see the beginning of a blossoming friendship…or maybe more.

Can’t wait till Jimmy and I get our first pup!

Ohana means family.

Here are the family photos we took a few weeks ago!

Baby, mom, and aunties

Mom and dad! I loved taking these.

And us

I tried to make this entry short but it ended up being long anyway. Hah, oh well. Anyway, these were taken a few weeks ago. It was such a fun day, we went out to celebrate Great grandma Hammer’s birthday. Jimmy and I actually have our one year wedding anniversary coming up and I’ve been thinking lately about how thankful I am for such an amazing husband and best friend but when I look at these photos I realize that I am also thankful for his amazing family that I married into. I have fallen in love with them and feel so blessed to be a part of the clan. God is so good. I just wanted to share the happiness of this day with the e-world ;)

first post of 2010!

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

I hope you all had a happy and safe new years! Wow, I haven’t been very good at keeping up with this blog, my apologies. Anyway, on New Years Eve, I had to work and close out the store, but thankfully my manager made sure we were out of there before midnight so I got to ring in the new year with Jimmy and the family. In fact, most of our time has been spent with family lately and I’m loving it. All of us are living under the same roof now and when I say it’s a crowded house, I mean it in the best way possible. I’ve gotten to bond with my sisters, and with the newest addition to the family, baby Josselyn. She is so precious and I can just stare at her for hours. I’m a big fan of babies in general, but she just melts my heart.

So that’s my update. Here are some pictures from when Jimmy took me on a date to Oak Glen a few days before Christmas. Jimmy and I agreed that as laid back as we are, it’s nice to go out on dates every so often and have some quality alone time together. And although we don’t have a little family of our own yet, when we do, our dates will definitely still be a priority. That boy never fails to make me feel special and loved, so you can imagine how much I enjoy our dates. I am such a lucky girl. =]

And to make up for my lack of posting, I’ll make this a very image-heavy post.


Lunch at Apple Annie’s, and a look at their bakery…

Then we went to the petting zoo

Peacocks are one of my favorite birds ever. It was so fun to see them walking around freely.


favorite favorite FAVORITE moment of the day. Everyone who knows me well knows that deer and fawns are my favorite animal!

And in case you were wondering what I’m wearing…

my coat is from forever21 a few years ago, the circle scarf is from wet seal, and my dress and oxfords are thrifted.

Most of the pictures are of me because Jimmy preferred to be behind the camera snapping shots, but I stole the camera from him a few times and snuck these in. He does makes a dashing cowboy, if I do say so myself.

And us :)

If you actually read through this entire entry and looked at all the pictures, my hats off to you!

It’s been raining the past few days over here, and I’m so excited. I’ve been anxiously waiting for Starbucks to come out with their holiday drinks, too.

and lastly, i will end this entry with pictures of baby goats, jimmy as a crab, and some funnel cake.

cheers!
