Dinner at Buck Owen's Crystal Palace

I would recommend to anyone driving through Bakersfield to go to the Crystal Palace. It was amazing food, great live entertainment, lots of history, memorabilia, and not to mention the locals....

Marriage

Sometimes you just don't care what you look like.... Sometimes you just don't care what the other one is doing or working on but you can pretend.... Sometimes you just don't care to get made up and go for a night out, instead we'd rather stay home in our pj's.
And sometimes.... these are the best memories of our lives....

Painting Baby Toe Nails

I love being an Auntie! Katie and I decided to paint our nails and spotted Kiley and her lack of nail polished toes... I couldn't help but suggest we paint them. Kiley and I had matching toe nail color...She's so cute! Alyssa was a very willing Mother. It didn't take long to convince her. Alyssa held down Kiley's wiggling foot, avoided her tree frog fingers, and painted her centimeter sized toe nails all at the same time. She is such a talented multi-tasking Mom. Don't mind the toys...they're good distraction devices.

Friends, Alumni's, and Graduations

One of my best friend's, Lauren Brewer, graduated from Bakersfield College on May 14, 2010. Me, my mom, Amy Bethke, Katie Pezzillo, and Keegan Valdez went to support her. I was actually feeling a little sentimental walking on the Bakersfield College campus and thinking of all of the memories of going to school there with the Bakersfield crazies... At the end of the graduation the Alumni and graduates chant "I am BC!!" man that makes me feel ghetto... Lauren and I have survived, alive, graduating from Bakersfield College.Here is a picture of the all of us in front of the LDS Institute of Religion where I went Everday for lunch and played ping pong, pool, and once again, hanging out with all of the Bakersfield crazies...

Easter 2010



I know I'm late posting these pictures but I wanted to get them up before next year's Easter.... This easter we were living at my parents. My Dad couldn't help but buy us some candy and my Mom had us do a very short Easter egg hunt. At least there were no crazy hats. Ending in our favorite... See's candy!!! So here we are bright-eyed, in our pajamas, and me with no makeup.

Family Fun

First off, Milly had her baby! He is the cutest little thing!He was born on Cinco de Mayo so we thought it was fitting to name him Cinco. I have a new hobby of making crocheted headbands for myself and everyone else that I can get one on. Here is one of my test subjects. Doesn't she look so cute!? I love Kiley girl.

For mother's day we made the men do all of the work while we were supposed to sit but that didn't quite work out. We couldn't help ourselves cleaning the house and instructing the men. We had a great meal and games as a family and with our friends the Schalls! Sheehan was secure enough as a man to sport my leopard apron. He had matching leopard mittens to accesorize with.
