Happy Birthday to the Abarca girls!

July again, and all 3 of Aretha's girls turn another year older. Jaleesa turned 21, Jazmine turned 15 and Jahne turned 12. They are 3 beauties let me tell you. I'm not just saying that because I'm their Auntie Kim either..Hee Hee!

Cassie

Here is a silly picture of my baby niece Cassandra, Cassie for short. She has grown so much, and is doing so well...You would never know she was a preemie:)  I think she is looking more and more like my sister everyday....Thank goodness!
           Oh yea, she has a thing about sticking out her tongue....too cute. Love you Cassie!

4th of July

Our 4th of July was a blast. Pictures we took are on somebody's camera, so I don't have them right now. My grandfather, sister and her family, and a good friend and her family came. We BBQ'd and did a bunch of fireworks... lots of fun!!! Looking forward to our next BBQ...We are hoping before school starts.

Happy Birthday baby sister!

Well today is my baby sisters 39th birthday! I told her she is one year away from the 40 club, not so sure she wanted to be reminded of that! That's what big sisters are for...HaHa. We had a BBQ, and cake and a pretty darn good time! We usually do when we are together. Well, hope you had a great day sis, I love you! 

Last tee-ball game of the season

Tonight was the last game for my little guy...He has had a blast playing and learning Tee-Ball. It was a good experience for him, and for us as well. Daddy was helping out as coach on a few games, and I know he enjoyed it. Everyone got trophies and had a pizza party!!! Can't wait until next year!

Happy 40th Aretha!

Yesterday was Aretha's 40th birthday, and boy did we get her good! I am very proud to say that. Her dad and step-mom kept her busy all day so we could get the party together, and surprise her that evening. Some friends from High school came and lots of family. Her reaction was just perfect...priceless I would say. It was very hard for me to keep it from her all week, because I tell her everything...I caught myself almost saying certain things about the party and would have to quickly change the subject. It was all worth it! Her sisters, daughter,mother,children,step-mom and myself were busy talking all week, and I must say we all work well together. I thank them very much for doing this for her! She is an amazing person, and deserves so much more. I feel I am very blessed and proud to have her as a friend. I love you girlie!!!

Today was Dr. Seuss' day. We watched Cat in the Hat, made green eggs and ham, and made Dr. Seuss' hats....Fun, fun, fun! Cookies and milk topped it off. We had such a good time, and the kids really enjoyed the coloring, cutting and pasting. I will be posting more on all the fun things that we do this summer.
