california screamin'






































Fun Fact: The only time I didn't happen to be screamin' during the ride was when this photo was snapped. There were a couple of individuals in the car ahead who can attest to it. They may still be laughing uncontrollably on my behalf. Hmmm... to post their photo or not... ; )

look out cy!
















You may just have a little competition this year. : )

huntington beach





In a matter of two short days it stole a piece of my heart. It could've been any number of things. Our incredible hotel across from the seemingly endless beach. The hour spent on the pier watching the hundreds of surfers or the nostalgia that set in seeing all the beach volleyball players. It could've been waking up those two mornings to good good coffee or discovering the most amazing gelato joint; Salted Caramel & Snickers people! It could've been Matt, "our (charming) luggage boy" we kept running into or the humbling stories told by our faithful cabbie Syad. 

What I do know is we'll be back. Before our return to Disneyland I'm bettin'. That my friends, say it all.

did i mention the waterslides!?

Miss Blue & her "hot wings". : )

time flies














Remember this? (And this!) Yes, it's that time of year again. And although us Rosse girls haven't had the easiest go this week (think plenty of snot. coughing. lack of sleep.) we're still pretty pumped. I told the girls this afternoon to sit on the step and show me their 'excited for Disneyland faces'. This is what they gave me. They crack me up. And you know the ol' saying... laughter is the best medicine. Here's hopin' the Happiest Place on Earth is too.

awesome is...

watching Ever purposely spill her Cheerios on the floor this morning & then hearing Vida Blue (whilst shaking her head) mutter "Not cool Ever. Not cool."

aarrr!

Yesterday was all about pirates. Friendly pirates of course. Pirates that hold hands, smell flowers and help each other down rocky terrain. All afternoon we searched for treasure... coins (for a certain 'Disneyland piggybank') and gold. Here's proof I scored me a little of the latter.

rainy day date
























I took V out for a little shopping date this afternoon. Before we left the house she made sure we were wearing our matching necklaces. During the drive she asked a million questions about the rain. "Does it come from heaven? Are the clouds sad? Where does it all go?" She's pretty good company, that kid. Got great taste too. While checking out I told her she could pick out any treater she wanted. Coffee Crisp?!? Now that's a girl after her mama's heart. I may've even gone halfers with her. :)

thankful

























Tonight I'm thankful for a lot of things. One being, the fact that when double-date night fell through the mister balked at the idea of cancelling with our babysitter. This of course, prompted me to do my "he really looooooves me... he wants to daaaaaate me" dance. Yah, after ten years together there really is such a thing. Ask for it sometime. I'll show ya.

Number two... green jeans. Yah, you read that right. Green. Jeans. Possibly the aftermath of Vegas baby, possibly the perfect item to spice up single-date night. 

























(The jury's still out on that one.)

on repeat over here

A little BD, from me to you.

Such a smooth tune. Gets me every time.

rsvp















If & when I get an invite to the little Mexican karaoke joint just south of the border, this will be my song selection. I'm in rehearsals, as I type. No tequila required. 

And P.S. Ash - Let this be your warning. My version is a lot more intense than Miss Adele's. It may even involve a chair or two. ; )
