Dinner 101 - Failed

Tonight I tried to BBQ steaks, run/cook three items on the stove top and keep Abby out of harms way. I was not successful. I burnt the steaks to a crisp on the BBQ and Abby got into the hair gel and rubbed it all up in her hair and on the bathroom counter. Do I have what it takes to be a stay at home at mom???? I believe so, but its just like any other job, when things don't go your way... IT SUCKS!! O'well tomorrow is a new day and I get to try it all over again and that is a blessing I am thankful for.

Father's Day

We started the day at my in-laws swimming at the pool, it was a blast. We then ventured to my parents house for a BBQ and good old fashion Pratt family fun...we eat outside and have a great fire with friends and family.

Daddy and Abby Daddy's Pride & Joy

To my amazing husband... thank you for being a wonderful father to our children. I love you!!

School Picnic

Being at home has allowed for so many emotions.... my favorite one is the joy I get when being able to volunteer at Isabella and Aaron's school. This past week I was able to be a volunteer for the school picnic at Irvine Park. I dove the whole family, Isabella, Aaron, Mason, Abby, Auntie Amy and Madison. We had a great time~

Closing Day

Last Saturday was closing day for baseball. This was our first year and the kids had a great time. Aaron's favorite part of each game was...SNACKS!!! Isabella's favorite part was ...SNACKS!! I know Darin was hoping for a little more, but we were just so proud of them, they both gave it their all and had fun. We are playing AYSO in August so stay tuned for the next adventure.

Flashback Friday

I have not lived at home for almost 10 years now. Since they are remodeling their house and cleaning the garage, I am now inheriting the items I don't want to throw away, but don't necessarily want at my house either. Three months ago I got another box of stuff from my dad and this is what was in it, old sorority photos. Color was my friend in college. :)
