Nifty Quote

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Happy Birthday, my sweet boy!

Harley's Pre-Birthday Celebration

I can't believe my little man is (tomorrow) 2 years old!

We had a pre-birthday party at my parents new house because my mom won't be able to be at his actual birthday party due to a previous engagement. So we had dinner and cake and ice cream. It was an awesome party and he had fun. He got the very cool Ironman toy pictured above (it talks and shoots multiple things), an awesome Buzz Lightyear kite and a really cool Frog pool that sprays water. He will have so much fun with that this summer. I'm so grateful I had my little Harley!

Chocolate Dipping for Mother's Day

My soon-to-be sister-in-law's mom (wow, that hurt my brain) makes and dips chocolates. The most delicious chocolates I have ever eaten! She came over to our house to do a dipping party before Mother's Day. It was a lot of fun and soooo yummy! Here are a few pics.

 Vicky dipping raspberry stuffs

Bec having fun dipping

It was actually a lot of fun unless I had to chase one, haha

Yummy Almond Joys!

Thania dipping some toffees (I think)

Jessica chasing one in the chocolate!

Lemon Blueberry, I think

Raspberry Cremes

She does a lot of different flavors. Raspberry and Orange Creme. Orange truffles, Almond Joys, Snickers, Mint truffles, Lemon Blueberry, Pinoches, Toasted Coconut. They're all so good! A lot of fun for Mother's Day!

Playing a little Catch up

I'm just playing a little catch up on my pictures. So here's a few for you!

 Uncle Conor and the munchkin

 He is so cute I can hardly stand it!

Itty Bitty before his eye surgery

 Attacking bubbles at our Easterish party

The great part about this, is he was sitting by Jared who was yelling at his video game. Mike (without even opening his eyes) said, "I know how to beat this game." Jared: "How?" Mike: "Don't die."

Classic!

Pizza burger! The meat itself had garlic and I think bacon mixed in it. Then it was wrapped around a whole host of yumminess, then sandwiched in between two DiGiorno pepperoni pizzas. Mmm, Mmm, Good!

Mmmmm, fatty, greasy goodness!

One amazing discovery!!!
