at least not for the next week! spring break starts today.. and as much as i’d like to sit around the house, sleep in, do a whole lotta nothin’– i think we might take a few day trips and venture out and about our lovely so cal. being out of the house helps curb their video games and my internet.
have a good weekend!

these are from the other day, my little shopping partner got into the easter candy early:

last week, celebrating student of the month with kira:

and celebrating a peter rabbit tea party at caleb’s class:

we celebrated a special day with good friends at lunch and just got home from celebratory pinkberry for cam’s game winning hit… it’s been a great day. 🙂

have a good easter, from the waters!

we’ve had about 4 games and we’re undefeated so far! and someone who used to let me take their picture, isn’t too keen on it anymore.

this one digs under car seats, under beds.. anywhere to find fallen change for the snack stand. 🙂

and this one looooves licorice from the snack stand.. but was introduced to RING POPs yesterday, and thinks she’s SOOOOO cool. oh gosh. sugar overload. (and how do you like that cute cupcake top?! macy’s for 3 bucks! hello bargain!)

it was my day to work in the snack stand and i couldn’t stand it! i looove watching cam play and people kept disrupting me with orders. LOL 🙂

yesterday morning, as dad was in the kitchen, rehearsing lines for the church play for tomorrow evening, elsie leaped from the couch, leaving blue’s clues in the dust… grabbed her crown and enthusiastically followed along to daddy’s dramatic performance. 🙂 she was nodding her head in approval– totally cracking me up. 🙂

this week is my challenge at ki memories
even though it was only a few months ago, it seems so long ago! i need to print out some more pics from the trip so i can get all mushy about it. 🙂

it’s that time again.. midmonth at 2ps.
my layout:
i can’t get over that cute ‘beautiful’ sticker by doodlebug. i wish they’d come out with a bunch of phrases like it!

today was the last day of basketball for the boys, so we are officially in baseball season. i need to take my camera next week. i’ll have plenty of opportunity, cam will be at the field 4 times a week! 🙂

new pink birthday crocs, pink polka dot leggings, pink chalk- her writing, green, mine. 🙂
not too much new here this week, been busy with not a lot to show for it! 🙂 baseball season has started… enough said. 🙂

have you ever gotten an email from me? i have serious smiley face issues. 🙂

elsie and her cousin, malaya shared their birthday party on saturday. here’s some mega pics from the fun day 🙂 i loved making these paper hats. they turned out sooo cute, if i say so myself!

birthday girl one:

birthday girl two:

we ditched the regular cake thing and had them decorate their own cupcakes.

and our many wonderful guests.. we love you!

the crew:

ps if you are looking for wedding invites, my cousin in the middle does a wonderful job, check her out… creative wedding.

pinata, treasure hunt, face paint, tattoos, jumper, AMAZING food and good friends.. thank goodness we don’t have another birthday in the waters house for another month or so. lol 🙂

eta:oh and thanks for all the comments about the lovely home, it’s not mine! i wish it were! lol 🙂

it’s time for els’ first party! we’ve been busy making lotsa paper hats. i was inspired by candice’s  super cute hat she made for her son.

we’ll see if the hat makes it to the party in one piece. 🙂 just another day to celebrate our girl…. 🙂
