1st Birthdays

Rillz and I had 2 nieces and 1 nephew who had their first birthdays in 2011.
Brecken Miller turned one. Happy Birthday! We celebrated it on the 4th of July. Hence the awesome firworks cake! This little dude popped out having a strong personality. He loves making people laugh. Brecken is the toughest and most prone accident baby I have known. He went through a phase of hitting his head against people/walls/floor. Gunnar better watch out because this kid is a brick! But on the other spectrum... Brecken is also a HUGE cuddle bug! I love that when Rillz and I see him he wants hugs and kisses and just to snuggle. We love this sweet boy!


Before fireworks. The mosquitos attacked us all that night.

These two are so cute together.

Gracey Noone - The week before our wedding our niece turned 1. In the hawaiian culture the 1st birthday is the biggest! Gracey had a party in hawaii with 300 people! Wow. Can't wait for my baby to turn 1. Yikes. For whatever reason I didn't get any pictures. They live in Florida so we don't get to see her often. She is a very loved little girl!

Camden Tracy - In her first year this little girl has racked up the frequent flyer miles! This girl just melts our hearts. She really transformed into a little character. She was a difficult little thing with not much emotions for a while. But then one day Camden just became this little bundle of joy. She had so much personality just sprout over night! There is just something about her that has the sweetest little spirit that is so calming when your with her. We just can't get enough of her. Rillz named her Lani Girl! We love little Camden!

Can you tell from the pictures someones mommy loves Zebra pattern!?!

Camden ate her cupcake with a spoon. Didn't want to get her hands dirty. Silly girl.

When the party started... she wasn't to happy

Love her cake!

We also added a new little baby in 2011!

Florida Vacation

Last month (September) Rillz and I went on vacation to Florida. Rillz's sister was having a baby. The first niece/nephew on his side of the family. We were SO excited to meet the new baby and see all the family! Girlie (Rillz's sister) didn't want to find out what the baby was. I had guessed it's a girl the whole time. A lot of others thought boy. She was born Wednesday September 15, 2010 at 11: something p.m. We left Thursday morning September 16. So the night before we left Rillz and I found out Girlie had a GIRL! Baby Gracey was born and we just love her and miss her.

We just adore her. Look at that hair!

This is Gracey and David (David is Girlies husband, Graceys dad)

Our last day in Florida. Sleeping with uncle Rillz

While in Florida Rillz and I went Disney World for 2 days. We were able to go to all 4 parks. We also went to Ripleys Believe it or not and M&M world. We had a blast!





At Disney World they had Magic Kingdom all decorated for Halloween
Me on some little park ride.



Getting warm by the fire place at Minnies house

Even on vacation Rillz is working in the shop... Mickeys shop!

The castle!

At Hollywood studios park they had a playground area with the Honey I Shrunk the Kids theme. It was so fun! Rillz by a Tinker toy block!
What a BIG ant and ice cream cookie!




I thought this sign was really cute!

Everything in those parks were SO expensive. (Of course I knew it would be). So we took food and water into the parks for the day. We decided to spoil ourselves for one meal. We chose this 50's diner that was super cute. Yummy (expensive) homecooking type meal. They had tvs at the booths playing Leave it to Beaver and other old shows.

Oh man this coke crate is HEAVY. Almost like it's cemented down!

Rillz's mom and dad came with us to the Epcot center the first day. After about 4 hours of being there they got worn out (it's a TON of walking) and so Rillz and I took them back to Girlies house. (She only lives about 20 min. away from Disney World). It was fun walking around with them for a while!

The famous Epcot ball/ dome thingy

Just his size!

The Animal kingdom park. Here is the tree of life.
3D glasses. I think they look good on me.

These are bats and there was no glass between us. Gross






We took a safari jeep ride. There are no barriers between us and some of the animals. Lots of the animals had babies. They were adorable.

Rillz looks like a natural!

The night before Disney World Rillz and I took a drive around the touristy area (disney world, sea world, you know that stuff). We randomly drove by Ripleys and decided to go. Rillz had never been to one.
This chair is too big! Those ones are too small.... where is the one thats just right??

The tallest man. He is just a little taller than Rillz


A section of the actual Berlin wall

Rillz and I went to IKEA (which is AMAZING!!!) and as we were driving back home I saw M&M world. I just had to go! It was fun looking at a lot of spendy M&M's!

Green is the new love color... Right!?!
Florida was amazing! We are very grateful for everyone who helped us out. We spent a lot of time with family and ate Fantastic food prepared by the family!

A new addition

We have a new baby in our family! Rillz's sister had a sweet little girl on Wednesday September 15. Her name is Gracey Milan Kealani Noone. Girlie and David didn't want to find out what it was. I immediately guessed a girl. I guess the majority of people said boy. Well, it's a girl and she is so adorable! Her hair is black, thick, and curly. We just love her already. She had a fever coming out but baby and mom are doing really well! Rillz's sister and brother-in-law live in Florida and Rillz and I were lucky to see her when she was less then a day old. Girlie came home tonight (Friday) and Gracey gets to come home tomorrow morning. I was told that Girlie was laughing and texting on her phone during labor. Crazy girl!

Gracey is 7 lbs. 10 oz. and 20 in. long.

We are all so happy for David and Girlie. It is the first baby on Rillz's side of the family. I will have to take pictures this week of David and Girlie with their baby. We just adore her and love her so much!

Welcome to the family sweet Gracey!

I made stuff for the baby. Not knowing what the gender was made it diffuct too. Here is a blanket I sewed. Let me tell you... such a pain! I had to learn a lot about my sewing machine and how to use different foots for it just to do this quilt. Took hours and lots of frustration to do! But, it's pretty cute.

Kristi also helped me make an awesome Baby ABC scrapbook. We both worked on it 7 hours straight. Kristi is SO creative and talented when it comes to crafty stuff. We couldn't make it boyish or girlish. Oops, pictures are sideways. Sorry.

Alright, got a lot of eating to do now. Peace out!
