Happy day!

Hi THERE! I am blessed this morning. I feel good. My family feels good, and best of all, God is good. Well, He's always good, but still, if you're having a good day, you better mention how good He is! This weekend was nice. My hubby's tia came down from new mexico and hung out with us for a while. Then we had our weekly friendship group which was "cook off" themed. I didn't win. Actually, i didn't "technically" participate. We were supposed to make CHILI RELLENOS! I can't make that! So, I cheated,and made ENCHILADAS! Besides, there was no way my kids would sit down and voluntarily EAT chilis! Our next "cook off" is actually a bake off! I'm going to make this supreme chocolate cherry cake!! ooooh.... Okay, with no further adieu, here are some pics. This one here is at our evangelistic event. Gabe and I were painting faces, and he did a WAY better job than me. This little guy spoke only spanish, but even without understanding him, I could tell he had a great time! My hubby too. He's so cool.

Here are my 2 precious, sweet, upstanding,little gentlemen, and their friends. Okay, so I exaggerated a little. They're actually rough and tough, dirty and frankly, kinda mean. But I love em! These are my next door neighbors, and the boys from up the street. They always play in my front yard. We're like the hot spot for the neighborhood kids. And now, they're all growing up, and into football. Long gone are the days of little trains, and army men. boo.. ENJOY!

And now one of my baby boy elijah. Okay, he hates it when i call him my baby boy... He's 6. It's a little blown out, but I still like it! Hope you do too.

Whatever things are lovely, and are praise worthy... think on these things!

Picnic day, and a loooong ride!

Oh, what a day! Went bike riding in this gorgeous weather, took the kids to the beach (grassy side) for a picnic! Then to the cemetary to visit my dad, and Officer Javier Bejar. THEN... we had to RUSH home to take the kids back to school, because they had parent teacher conferences today! Mostly good. I won't go into details, but we did reward them for the good with yummy ice cream afterwards. Here's a little snapshot of my little girl after running away from me when we got her out of her seat! Not the best pic, but certainly a good memory. I'm not as fast as her... LOL! Her hair was in her face, I think she got lunch on her dress, and there was still some lunch on her chin. (thanks to photoshop, you really can't see the lunch pieces on her chin) ENJOY!!!!

To Minister...

Today we had our friendship banquet for church. For the last few months, we have been praying for someone, someone that God has put in our heart. My person did not come. I was sadly dissappointed. My husband's prayer person did not come either. We were kind of ignored. Instead of just being told no, we got maybe, then all calls made by my hubby were avoided. He's pretty bummed about it. But other people did show, and we had a great time! I love my church family so much. I am blessed beyone measure. My cup overflows! Here's a humorous little pic of my old man helping to clean. He's always had a servants heart, but it's not often he does this kind of serving,... or cleaning should I say... I love the expression on his face the most! He's my man... and I love him...

Another one... cuz it's my fave!

Ahhh... My favorite one so far. These girls are GORGEOUS!!!

I've been busy!

Okay, Okay, Okay, I've had a busy day. But it's all good, I got to spend some time with my super cool cousins, and ALL their kiddos! Let me tell you, it is sooo hard to get a good pic with all the kids looking at the camera at the same time! I hope my cousin Rachel likes em!!!

My kiddies

Here are just a few pics of my kiddos! These are a few months old, but I figured I'd update my blog with some of my favs. Here are my beautiful children. Let me introduce you to Gabriel jr, the big one, Eli, the one squinting his eyes. (poor guy, he always makes wierd faces when he takes pics), and that little white baby is my miss grace. I've been so blessed.
