Flippin Out!

Sam takes it all to another level with these girls. We have a rowdy bunch but they are so much fun. SO are their machine gun laughs. They get it from their mama, thank you very much.

Gooooooooo Giants!



Surprising Sam for a belated 30th birthday and early Father's day was awesome! With a little help from an amazing family we know (The Bruno's). We made it to At&T Park on Friday night and brought the girls to see their very 1st Giants game. It rocked and ended in fireworks over the park. And of course, to the tune of Katie Perry's Firework Song. And yes, us girls sang almost every word. Ah Yeeess! I'd say it was a pretty awesome night all around. No complaints!






Easter 2011


Phillips Girls Easter Sunday 2011

It's crazy how fast this year is going. Scary really! I find myself looking back a lot lately and watching old movies of the girls and literally crying. My babies WILL always be my babies, don't get me wrong but HOLY COW, when did they turn into little girls? Like 5 and almost 8 year old little girls? Redunkulous! This must stop. Immediately. Easter flew by, now we are out of school for the summer and thank goodness I can ease my way into another faze of my motherhood. Because I'm going to need this ENTIRE summer loving on these little ones before fulltime school for both SMACKS me in the face come August. I'm crying right now at the thought of it all. I gotta go...


Softball Season Wrap up 2011

We thought it would be cute to carry on the tradition of daddy's baseball number and have the girls rock a 1 & 6, which makes, 16! Sam's old baseball number. Love it! Oh how I love these 2 more and more.....

Team Seaside Sparkles was Amazing this year. The coach was easy on the eyes too,if I do say so myself.Heehee! Both girls were on the same team and all the girls & parents rocked. What a great bunch of girls. This is Carys 2nd year and Bay's 1st. Funtimes. Watch for yourself. I'm a proud mama.

This is the TRUE STORY...

Or rather...True Picture of my peep, Bay Shaye!
I thought about putting up all the pretty pictures I took,
after the bribe I offered, to turn this pouty frown upside down.
But this was her,one her graduation night.
True Story,grumpy, pouty face and all.
But....
I figured,
eyyyyyyyyy....
Why front?
Enjoy!

Days Like This




I need a good reminder of just how lucky and blessed I am to be a part of growing these little bugs. Oh we have our moments, don't get me wrong. But most days, our moments are giggle filled. I do have one wish...that they stop growing up so fast immediately.

Wrapped into One!

Mama and Carys @ the Nutcracker in Salinas.
( She kept asking me if the people on stage were real people and not a movie.)
Such a sweet time.


Checking out baby Jesus's animals. Lots of lambs and goats.
We totally 'cheated' this year. We decided to hit up Home Depot for our tree. And in less than 5 minutes, we picked, paid and had our tree in the beck of Sam's truck! Awesomeness! Sam seemed happier than all of us...wonder what that was all about?lol We were also able to visit Streets of Bethlehem in Salinas this year. What a sweet treat for us and the girls. Made the story of baby Jesus so tangible for both of them. And to top off this Christmas Season, we also teamed up with the young and fun Villasenor's and all watched the Nutcracker Ballet in Salinas. We are trying to make better memories with the girls this year than years past. With more family time, honoring the birth of Jesus and what that means for our salvation and a deeper appreciation for the arts. They LOVED it all! So did Mama!


Better late than never right?

My sweet pilgrim girl. She rocked the house, along with the rest of her class for the Thanksgiving day program. I made all the bonnets and aprons for our class, which they took home as a gift. Their songs and play was soooo precious but hey, I'm a huge fan of Carys so maybe I'm bias. Thats my girl!

Girls Day Out

Us girls had a day out after Thanksgiving together. I started off teaching them the fine art of 'Window Shopping' and we headed off for a bite to eat and saw Tangled at the movie theatre. It was a blast. These are some fun girls to hang with.. just saying.

Day 3 (Disneyland/Hotel room)

Ok there's a good reason there are only one photo of our last day on vacation. The girls fought a great fight when it came to this horrible cold. But on our final day/night Bay came down hard with fevers and puking all day long in the hotel. So Carys was still going strong so Sam took her out first and I took her out second while we tag teamed with Bay all day in the hotel room. Poor baby puked all day,was burning up and just plain miserable. I balled all day with her. feeling so helpless. Go figure right. On vacation. The first vacation we have taken in 3 years. Together. Carys and I hit up some shopping at the end of the night, which is always fun with my girls. Mama taught them well.wink,wink. However, when we came home, I was struck down with something horrible too. And have been down ever since. Struggle to survive, I swear. It's awful. As I continue to recover, keep our family in your prayers as my health has been hit hard over this year and I am growing weary. Our vacation was fun regardless of the SARS I caught (not really). The girls were over the moon and the best feeling in the world is being able to give your children something as special as the memories of Disneyland and their family.

Day 2 ( CA Adventure)

As we enter CA Adventure park...
Hello Golden Gate Bridge, we missed you so
Caught these pearly whites on the spinning lady bugs, I think they were having a good time..maybe?!
Sambo and I, headed to the giant ferris wheel
Me and my Bay Shaye
Way up in the sky... The girls and I
Our view from the top...Yikes!
Bay and her hero, Daddy!
My Care Bear and I, we were a little scared.
Carys actually rode this roller coaster at least 5 or 6 times. It went upside down and super fast. It's called CA Screamin. The girl is just plain fearless!
Bay got to meet Jessie from Toy Story. She was a glow. She came home with a Jessie wind up doll too. So stinkin cute!
Green Army men preform on the boardwalk! Classic!
Mickey Mouse first teddy bear. His name is Duffy.
Handy Manny! The girls even got autographs. Don't judge Bay's shoes please. They gave her the edge/inch she needed to ride the rides. While it might have made her look (or us rather) a little white trash, we still had fun.lol
The girls faces on rides were awesome. This was Bay's version of trying to enjoy it but all the while being prepared for something scary. We call it One Eyed Pete! lol Carys just thought it was too loud. But this was only the Monster Inc ride for goodness sake. They rode the craziest roller coasters ever.


We did catch some great short movies. That included A bugs life, Muppets and Talk with Crush from Nemo. Best ever by far was Talk with Crush. It was totally interactive with the crowd. Sam and I laughed so hard when they would ask the kids questions too.
Checking out the Parade at the end of the day. I love the parades at Disneyland.



Ending the night with some yummy mexican food, corona's and good company. Off to see World of Color water show @ CA Adventure to round out the night. What an amazing show. Check out our short vid of just part of it! Blown away!
