5 Years!



Derek and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary this last weekend. Derek planned it all and it was perfect. On Friday we dropped Mason off at my mom's house and then headed down to Seattle. My mother-in-law was kind enough to reserve us a room at the Sheraton. We were on the 31st floor and had a great view of the city. After we checked in we walked around to the different stores and then stopped for dinner at the Fox Sports Grill. I was a little worried about sticking to my diet because I haven't cheated yet. I ordered grilled chicken with wild rice! PERFECT!! Derek enjoyed watching the Red Sox game in the back ground. We had Reese with us and of course, she was an angel the whole time. After we ate, we walked around some more and then went back to our hotel. On Saturday, we met my parents and Mason for lunch at Applebee's. They then took the kids back to their house while Derek and I went to Bellevue Square where we BOTH got massages at In Spa. The whole weekend went by so fast, but it was a nice little getaway. I was super impressed that Derek planned the whole thing. What a great husband!

BHS 10 Year Reunion


I had my class reunion this last Friday and Saturday. I really dreaded going because of all the weight I have gained this last year, but I'm glad I went. My friend Bree and I went together because our husbands really didn't want to go...plus it was $60 each! It was kind of surreal seeing these people you hadn't even thought about since high school. I also saw some people that were my close friends in high school. I'm glad we only do this once every 10 years. It would be so weird to do this every summer. Derek and I took the kids to the family picnic on Saturday. It was fun to see everyone with their kids and show off mine :) Mason is a handful at parks, so after a while I took him to my moms and went back to see some other friends that came after I had left. In the end, I'm glad I decided to go. Now I have 10 years to get down to my high school weight ;)!

An Update


I really want to keep this up...for myself, family and friends. I really don't know many people that have a blogspot. I want friends and family to check this to see the kids and whats new in our lives! These are pictures I took of the kids yesterday. Reese is 3 months already! She is an extremley happy baby. She is laughing out loud now! It is so cute. Mason is doing great too. He's a very "active" little boy. He loves trains, baseball and playing the computer. We have to limit his time on the computer because he would play it all day long. YIKES! So not much else is going on. I've been working out at the gym for the last two weeks. I'm trying to lose this massive amount of baby weight I have gained through the pregnancy. I'm already down 8 pounds in 2 weeks! I have about 70 more to go, but it's a start. I'm sure I'll be blogging about the weight loss occasionally.
