Beach Days

Having the beach just 5 min away is the best thing that has ever happened to us, we have plenty of time to go together in the morning, and its warm enough to go at night also. Here are some pics of the last week at the beach. While my little bro was here he had us bury him in the classic mermaid shape lol.

Tux Sunbathing, he loves running at the waves and is a pretty good swimmer.

There was a side-walk chalk competition the other day on the boardwalk, it was so amazing! Most of them were done by like 14 yr olds, here are some of my favs.

{That's Right}

Im so happy Jill chose Ed...He's so adorable, despite the double take of the green shorts and tank again. I felt soooo bad for Reid. He's so cute and probably really thought Jill would take him back, it was painfully awkward watching him leave. And Kip will make a great Bachelor with that hot bod haha except i secretly hope the make Jake the next Bach still. Anyone else have any thoughts on Ed and Jill...?

Slumdog Millionaire

Seriously the best movie i have seen in years. I usually stay away from movies that win awards cause a lot of the time they suck, but this was AmAzInG!!! If you haven't seen it go rent it right this second.

dang it

Left my camera charger in Centreville :( I hope its still there when i go back sunday...(Any of you girls up there know if my house is still open??)

~Why i Like Today~

*New (borrowed) kennel so Lily will stop escaping and chewing up my shoes. (see above)

*A/C fixed!


*Went to the Beach this morning for some one on one time with my man.

*Found a nice little dog park on site.

*Going back to Fairfax Sunday for a visit and b-day party.

*So you think you can dance is on.

*I've slept off the exhaustion from midnight Harry Potter/Which was fabulous.


*I got new sheets and they came with 2 fitted sheets, and no flat. AND i didn't notice until i had put on both fitted sheets on the bed. I wasn't even that mad because i was laughing so hard.

...BLah...

In Va Beach, going on day 2 of no A/C in the apartment (which is adorable). It is soo humid here, the dogs are panting all day long, and now Lily has diarrhea. Gross.

P.S. Ed's shorts were disgustingly short yesterday, and that tank top, Ugh.

Reed is cute and Kiptyn is weird, but did i call it or what...Ed and Kip as the final 2.

.....i hate waiting 2 weeks for the finale.....

GoodBye Centreville. Hello Virginia Beach...

Well we are moving in the morning to Virginia Beach, so we hit up the town last night for a final goodbye. And as you can see Chris really enjoyed the Georgetown Cupcakes :) I will miss good ol' DC and we hope to come back and visit soon. Now lets hope for our 13th move i can finally figure out how to pack and not forget anything!!!

.:.+Fashionistas+.:.

After shopping in Georgetown and seeing all the adorable new fashions, and ridiculous prices for them, us girls decided to try making some things on our own....We set out to make headbands. After hitting up JoAnns, Michaels, and WalMart we put together these creations. Im so impressed at how creative my friends are, and i realized afterwards it was dumb to put them is the polaroid setting because you can't tell how bright and cute they are but im sure you get the idea!!

Peacock
Kailani the most stylin baby ever!! Isn't this sooo cute!!! Im trying to convince her mom to sell them in her etsy shop cause man baby fashion has never been this cute!

Wild outdoors.

Blues

Love how colorful this one is...

This is trying to be one of the headbands you kinda wear like on your forehead, im wearing out on my date tonight, so ill take some better pics and you guys can let me know if i can pull it off or look like a total dork! Thanks so much girilies im gonna miss you so much!!!...and going off of that....

Yes we are moving mid-summer again :( So annoying but hopefully we will have a good time, ill miss all my girls tho, we did some really awesome stuff out here in DC.. And im not 100% where we are even going, even though we are leaving on monday...it will be either Virgina Beach, or Louisville Kentucky, and possibly Lubbock Texas. So we here we go living in pretty much every state possible while doing this job.

{Georgetown Cupcakes}

Before even moving here, i heard such amazing things about this "Georgetown Cupcake" shop. So today all of us ladies headed downtown to check it out, it was an adorable shop like all of Georgetown is, and was really really good. I mean a cupcake is a cupcake but i was not at all disappointed by the hype i heard about it, it was super fun! I recommend taking a trip if your ever near by. They had a bunch of amazing different kinds, and i tried WaY to many :)

Lemon, Strawberry, chocolate2, red velvet, lava flow, vanilla chocolate were the ones i chose to get today, but i believe i will be back to try even more!

Pichu and Momi

Sheila, Pichu, Moi, Jess, Momi (kids, Kai, Keku, Elias, and Sol)

~MaDe In MeXiCo~

Just as Lily is finally back to normal and we think our dog luck has taken a turn for the better, Tux suddenly decides to have diarrhea....for over 2 weeks, so we're thinking that's kinda a long time for a dog so i call the vet and they say just bring in a sample we'll ck it out. The doctor asks us all the questions and i tell him we got some new raw hide bones, but they have them all the time, he smiles and says well when you get home call me and tell me where those bones were imported from because the bacteria he saw under the scope looks an awful lot like the same kind humans get from drinking water from Mexico. Well sure enough printed on the back "MADE IN MEXICO" so poor little Tux has to starve for 24hrs then be pumped full of meds and be hand fed the soft smelly food for a week. Im getting worried about having kids, if they have nearly as many problems as my dogs, im in for it :)

4th

So much fun to hang out with the family all weekend, i swear DC is the best place on earth to be the 4th of July...

Family Time

We got downtown early and camped out under the lincoln memorial, the best spot for fireworks!

Mom, Hay, Drewb

4th of July Festivities

My first Holiday Cake

Ed Ed Ed Ed is BACK!

Yes im addicted to the ever so cheesy, dramatic, Bachelorette. I have stopped liking Jillian because her choice in men is just TERRIBLE until monday when ED returned!! Now if only we could replace Dirty, Skeezy, Gross, WES, for Adorable little Jake who made an appearance. I hope hope that Ed it there at the end with Kiptyn as the last 2, the rest sooo do not go with her, and if WES stays another week im not watching anymore....The End.

Air and Space Museum

After seeing Transformers of course we had to go check out the museum where some of it was filmed!!! The Smithsonian Air and Space museum! It was gigantic, and really cool to see all of the planes and space crafts, really interesting. And of course the Transformer guy was a big hit! I couldn't believe how big some of these planes were, and the Space Shuttle was amazing to see in real life. I feel like we are so lucky to be living out here and having a chance to see so much of our nations history.

A small version of Optimus Prime
The Decepticon :)

Some other cool planes.
