Spring is in the air.

Yay!!! I love spring time, if only the weather would knock it off and behave then I could really enjoy spring. I have also been feeling very crafty as of late and wanted to share my finally finished projects...
This is the boppy pillow that I have been working hard to cover, it was cheaper in the long run but a pain in the butt to finish, but I think it turned out cute and the best part is that it will fit for either a boy or a girl yay!!Next up my decorative vase idea... well it wasnt my idea I got it off of tencowchick.blogspot.com, but it was so easy to make and really got me in the spring time mood.
These are the only ones not finished but they will be once the baby comes. I bought these at a yard sale for .10 each, they were painted ugly blue and had ribbon around them, but instantly my creative juices were flowing and I had a plan to pait them black and put cute little black and white pictures of the baby's hands and feet in them . So cute I cant wait. Next I couldnt forget about easter (or my HUGE sweet tooth) so I thought I would make rice krispy treats but shape in the form of easter eggs and them dip them in chocolate and sprinkles, they were yummy but hard because I had to harden the chocolate in the fridge, oh well still fun.And what would spring time be without baseball? my answer would be nothing, but Craig would have a different answer. Craig promised me that he would go to a baseball game with me and he would bring a book to read, it was a great compromise, the only problem is that my little niece taylor and him had a bet of how many times I would have to go to the bathroom.... no funny.
Can you tell my dad loves the sport, and cute taylor is almost as tall as me and she is only 11 crazy!!!
And then nothing says bring on summer like a camp out. Due to the fact that we couldnt find anyone to substitute our primary class we could only go for the day while Craigs family braved it in the cold air to ring in spring. I forgot I had my camera until the end of the day when we were eating our tin foil dinners (which were amazing) and of course I forget the flash and miss my picture perfect moment.
So this is spring to me camping, baseball, and crafts love it cant wait to see what else it brings!!

Two amazing years!!

I truly mean that these last two years, being married to craig, have been amazing. Of course we have our challenges, everyone does, but at the end of the day our love overcomes any of our trials. Craig is truly my best friend, the one I want to share all my thoughts and excitement with. I feel so blessed to be walking through life with him, and starting a family.
Recently I have been sucked in to the reality show "the Bachelor" every monday night. Craig is such a good sport and watches it with me, and even though I get into the show and have my favorite people I would never want to find love that way. People sometimes ask... why do you watch that show? My answer... every time I watch that show It makes me appreciate the relationship that Craig and I have, and that we dont have to be apart of that dating scene again, we found each other and I am so happy. I found the love of my life and we have been married for two AMAZING years, life is great.

Along with being married to the most wonderful man we are so excited to expand our love to our new little baby due in Aug. I cant believe that our family is growing. I am starting to talk to the baby now and trying out our new names "mommy" and "daddy", it feels so good. We are nervous and excited for our new adventure.

So to celebrate our second anniversary, and our last trip before the baby comes we decided to go to California and play at disney land and the san diego zoo. At the first of the year we participated in the disney program where you give a day of service and get a ticket to disneyland.
This was my favorit part of disney... Toon disney, I truly got to act like a kid... Craig got into the spirit.We had to get Craig a churro the only thing he wanted haha.We got completly soaked on splash mountain.we waited in line for 30 mins to ride Peter Pan, the only ride Craig wanted to go on, I dont think it was worth the 2 second ride.Craig wanted to go to the San Diego Zoo, we had such a great time even though it was raining.This was the tram that overlooked the Zoo.Craig loved the gorillas, because they look like him haha just kidding.My favorite animal was the panda, we saw a baby panda eating an apple and it was so cute.Our hotel was within walking distance to the beach, it felt good to put my feet in and get all wet.
