Well, some of you know but some of you don't ... I have recently signed up to be a Pampered Chef Consultant. To make a long story very very short, Mike and I both feel that this is an answer to many prayers, and I am so so excited about the opportunity to do this! I love the Pampered Chef products, and how easy is it so talk about something you already love!
I would love to do a party for each and everyone of you! It is super fun and couldn't be easier. All you have to do is give me your list of people and then you can sit back and relax till the day of your show. I send the invites, do all the planning, and take care of everything.
The specials for the next 2 months are absolutely great! As a host you are always able to earn free product at your show, as well as getting huge discounts (up to 60%) on other products, and money saving opportunities for the entire next year! If you hold a party in July, you can earn up to $100 in additional FREE PRODUCTS of your choice!! That is on top of the products you would normally earn. Those who host in August can earn huge discounts on the Pampered Chef Cookware. How many of us are in need of good quality pots and pans, but don't have the money to spend on them? Well, here is your answer! You can get 60% off of all the cookware products!
If you would be interested in hosting a party leave a comment and I will be in touch with you to set everything up. Like I said it is super simple and tonz of fun! Nothing better than a night together with friends and family while you get free stuff!

Easter
Another long overdue post is our first family Easter. I was really excited to have Easter with our little family this year. Easter was always very fun for me growing up so I was excited to start some traditions with my little girl. Mike and I dyed Easter eggs even though Alena isn't big enough for it yet.
Here are our individual eggs with our names on them. Mine was supposed to be purple but it didn't turn out so I put it in the blue and that made it look like poop. :( Oh well, they still tasted the same right.
Here are all of our eggs. I think they all look good. Can you see the yellow egg that Mike dropped and broke?
I had fun shopping for our baskets. Mike and I just got plastic eggs filled with candy but Alena got some fun stuff from the Easter Bunny. He brought her some fun touch and feel books and a little stuffed bunny with a book on the bottom.
The best present was her wonderful Jumper-roo. Alena is getting more and more active and we were trying to figure out somethings that we could get her to help expend some of her energy. We were looking at the door hanging Jennie-Jump-Ups, but we don't have any door jams in the main part of our house and I didn't feel good sticking her back in the hallway to jump during the day. I was so excited when we found this fun toy. It is an exer-saucer that is on bungees so she can jump and play all at the same time. Can you tell that she totally loves it?
The last fun tradition is a pretty Easter dress. I had been looking at the dresses at WalMart for weeks trying to decide what to get her. We finally decided on this one and I was so glad. Sorry this isn't the best of pictures, we took it with Mike's cell phone before we ran out the door to church. I will try to get a better picture of it to post so you can see how pretty the colors are.
All in all it was a wonderful Easter. I can't wait for next year when Alena will be able to participate more and can start making memories with Mommy and Daddy.

Disneyland!! Long Overdue
Well, it has taken forever but we are finally getting around to posting pictures from our Disneyland trip back in March. Mike and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary on March 10th of this year and we decided to celebrate by going to Disneyland. It is my absolute favorite place in the world so it was perfect :) We went the last weekend of March because Mike's cousin Brian was also celebrating his birthday and we all decided it would be fun to go together. It was a blast!
We started the trip Thursday afternoon when we dropped baby Lena off at Aunt Emily's for the weekend. I cried for about a half hour, but it was ok. We met up with Brian, Carrie and Addie and started the drive over to Anaheim, CA to meet up with Aunt Gloria and to our surprise cousin Kevo was there too! We got settled in at the hotel and tried hard to fall asleep due to our excitement for what was going to happen the next day!!
We all got up early on Friday morning and started our long first day at Disneyland!
Here we are with our tickets ready to enter the park.
Mike and I inside the park for the very first time together.
One of our first rides was Peter Pan. Fantasy Land is definitely a wonderful place to start your Disneyland adventure :)
Our next stop was Toon Town where we had a lot of fun. Here are a few pictures of us goofing off.
What a strong husband I have!
I had a harder time of it :)
For some reason we got stuck in the dog house. I don't know what we did :(
Ships Ahoy Captain!
Our next stop was Space Mountain. Oh My Heck we love that ride!! Honestly, by far one of the greatest, if not THE greatest ride ever!
I love Aunt Gloria's face in this picture :)
A little glimpse of the Bull and the Bear that kept showing up all over the park that day :)
The traditional picture in front of the Walt Disney Statue.
The day continued with the same amount of go go go! I swear we didn't stop. We ended after 15 hours. We all walked back to the hotel like 80 year olds that needed hip replacements. It was great, but our bodies from our heads to our toes were aching. We were ready for round two the next morning though!
Another traditional picture in front of the Mickey Mouse Flowers.
On day 2 we spent some time at California Adventure. One of my favorite rides there is the Tower of Terror, can you tell by my face?
This is the perfect picture to sum up our time at the park
After day 2 we drove down to San Diego to spend some time before we had to make the drive home. We were able to spend Sunday relaxing and giving our bodies a chance to heal. We went the one of Mike's favorite restaurants that night called Filippi's. We met up with Mike's Uncle Bruce, his girlfriend Adele and her daughter Jodi. It was a really fun night.
We got up Monday morning and got ready to make the drive home. I was so ready to see and hold my baby again. Mike got pulled over while driving us back but luckily we got off without a ticket :) We finally made it to Emily's house at about 8:00 and I got to hold my baby again. It was the most perfect ending to a very fun weekend!
