Exciting News... We Bought a Home!

On Saturday we bought a home!! Above is a little preview of how it looks... of course that is the model home but I happened to get pictures of the two most important spots... the kitchen and dining area!! Our home will be ready in mid-November, we are SO excited to design our home and eventually move into it!!

Saturday night we celebrated our purchase and Ashley's new JOB as Managing Editor for a Publishing Company... we are SO proud of her!!

We had a delicious BBQ dinner at Steve and Ash's place and had the BEST time, we are so thankful our friendship!

After toasting (one too many times) things got a little crazy... don't even know what these pictures were about but goes to show what the night morphed into!! All I remember is Tupac coming on and talk about facial hair and certain body parts... don't ask...

Sunday night we met up with Kim and Jon at our favorite dinner spot... we are so excited to be moving closer to them... hopefully they will stay put :) What a GREAT weekend, we are so thankful for our new home and wonderful friends to one day have over and host!

Kelli is Pregnant and We Meet Max!

Saturday night we went over to Chrissie and Greg's for a graduation party for Jason, congratulations on graduating Architecture school! However, Jason's party soon got turned upside down because Kelli had an even bigger announcement... they are PREGNANT!!! I am SO excited for Kelli and Jason, what a blessing and wonderful new chapter of their lives!

We had a delicious dinner and celebrated their exciting changes, I can't wait to see Kelli grow and have a BABY!

Sunday, Dave and Rebecca were in town from Sacramento visiting her sister so we came over and got to meet Max for the FIRST time... it was love at first sight... I absolutely fell in love with Max!! He is the most precious baby ever- so gentle, sweet and happy.

We packed up, got sandwiches and walked to Corona Del Mar beach... had lunch on the beach with the kids and had a great time catching up with Dave and Rebecca. We miss them so much and hope that they will move down here some time soon. Max was the first baby that made me want my own... that's quite a statement out of my mouth!
