hello strangers*

I can't believe it's been over a month since my last update. I didn't realize I'd be so consumed by work. My personal time has been limited lately so that means no crafting, blogging, or fun. Zip. Nadda. I gladly put my personal needs on the back burner for family time, which means soccer Saturdays and football Sundays. The boys are growing so quickly... thank goodness for photos, LOTS of photos!

Time Flies*

Wow! It seems like ages. Life in the Rosete household seems to fly by. I've been attending a leadership academy this past week+. Jimmy has been working + working + working. Nyah is having a blast this summer just hanging out.

We have all been consumed by preparation for Riley's first birthday party. (Pictures coming soon!) The candy land was PERFECT for such a sweet baby. Now I'm off to bake cute cookie favors for another 1st birthday party. I'll {try} to remember pictures, but I must say I'm usually in a ruch to get them all packaged and to their destination ON TIME.

And at last, our vacation will soon be here. We're off on a short family vaca... Shopping and FUN here we come! {Can't wait!}

Happy Anniversary

Two years ago today I married my soulmate, and we became family. Lucky me.

Happy Father's Day

...to the best daddy a little girl could ask for. Seriously. Look at the two of them... the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. He really is the best dad ever. Nyah can prove it too! Ask her... she'll tell you.

and to my dad... the best dad in the whole world! I love you.

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers who make this world a great place for children. {Most especially my brother}

my hero.

I have so much in life to be grateful for... my family. my friends. my home + job. my supportive husband. my kiddos. pretty much my whole life. If it weren't for this wonderful woman I would have nothing. I am so lucky. She is my mother, my hero.
