New Moon and Eclipse

So my sister-in-law Debbie was so kind to let me borrow the sequal to Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse. I finished both books this last week...loved them! Easy and quick reading, I definitely stayed up way too late reading every night, but that's half the fun right?!

It's a....

BABY GIRL!

Baby Boy or Baby Girl?

So tomorrow is the big day where we find out whether we are having a boy or a girl. Pretty exciting! We're hoping the baby cooperates and decides to show us the goods. Don't think we can wait another 4 weeks to find out what we're having. We'll definitely post an update tomorrow.

So after seeing so many friends blogging about Eclipse, I thought I would see what the craze was all about with these books by Stephenie Meyer. I started and finished Twilight over the weekend. It was so good, a quick and easy read. Now I'm addicted and have to get my hands on copies of New Moon and Eclipse.

The Office Season Three

It's finally here, The Office Season Three. Doug is so excited, that I had to go out and pick it up yesterday so he could start watching some episodes.

Hotter than Hot Labor day weekend

So is anyone else melting from the heat? Doug and I left Mission Viejo and headed to the beach Saturday and Monday to escape the sweltering heat. The high for Labor day at our house was recorded at 111 degrees...seriously! The beach was lovely, a refreshing 85 degrees. We went with the Yee's and Bruschke's and had so much fun. By Wednesday we're supposed to get a break from the heat...one can only hope.
