Kyston's Baptismal

What better way to start off our blog than by bragging about our adorable Godson. Our dear friends, Kavon & Anna Lisa Moradi, asked us to be Godparents to their son Kyston. We are so blessed and honored to play such an important role in Kyston's life. He was Baptized Sunday, April 6th at St. Francis Catholic Church in Frisco.

Kyston was such a trooper and we were so proud of him. He looked so handsome in his white baptismal outfit. We were very curious to see how he would react to the Holy Water that is poured over his head and he was such a good boy. Of course he did want to look at the water, and touch the water, but he was so well behaved when they poured it over his head.

After the baptismal, Kyston was so excited that everyone was coming over to his house. He was even more excited when he got home and saw presents that were for him and it wasn't even his birthday!

Kyston has now been baptized into the Catholic Faith. This is just the beginning of an amazing journey he will have with God, and Mikey and I will be there to support him every step of the way. We love you Kyston!

Happy Birthday Courtney!

Pleae be patient with me, I am still catching up. This blog was a great idea, now I just need to learn how to fit frequent updates into my schedule =). On the 19th, we had a pool party at our house for Courtney's birthday. The weather was absolutely gorgeous! Mikey grilled hamburgers and hot dogs and there were plenty of daiquiris to go around. Everyone had a great time and got a lot of sun. Happy Birthday Courtney!

The Beach!!

We recently took a weekend trip to La Jolla, California to attend a wedding. La Jolla is just North of San Diego. The wonderful couple Joy & Sam are very dear friends or our family. Joy was my babysitter when I was younger and we were so excited to be with them on their very special day! We flew in late Thursday night. We were affected by the American Airlines MD80 debacle, but we made it!!

We rented a cute little house just blocks from the beach. It was a very old house, but it was completely remodeled with all modern decor. I loved it! Friday the girls spent the day at the spa with the Bride and the guys hit the Torrey Pines Golf Course with the Groom. The rehearsal dinner was at a great seafood place on the beach.

Saturday we spent the day at the beach. We packed up a wagon with our cooler, towels, beach chairs, and walked down to the beach. The weather was gorgeous all weekend!! The wedding was on a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It was absolutely gorgeous! The ceremony was so sweet and intimate, and the reception was a blast.

Sunday we checked out of our house and hit the beach for some last minute sun. Our flight home was delayed, but we made it home safely!!

Welcome!!
