Disneyland in August

We love it when Daddy comes with us to Disneyland!
We even got to go with Cousin Bradley & family!
Disneyland in August? HOT! HOT! HOT!
So there's nothing better than to get totally drenched in the water play area!

Dots Cupcakes

Have you heard of Dots Cupcakes? Apparently they only have 2 locations - both in Pasadena. One of Chris' patients brought these to his work & he was nice enough to think of us & bring some home! Nicole loves the cute little flower - she'll eat that first! Both of the kids try to eat the icing before they get to the cupcake part!

Taking care of Lambie

One of Nicole's favorite dolls is Lambie.
Lambie is enjoying a nice nap in the carrier :)

Celebrating Islands-style!

Nicole wanted to show off her Ariel drawing along with her favorite Lambie!
Chris and I both had birthday coupons from Islands - love their burgers!
The free dessert was bonus! Mmmmmm Kona Pie!

Hanging out with the Choi's

Matthew's using his cute little Bumbo to sit up nice!
Nicole & Jason grabbing a tortilla to go while trying to play at the same time.
I don't think Jason quite understands how basketball works yet :)
Nicole's zooming along happily.

Celebrating my Birthday

On the last day of convention, I finally got to get together with my upline, Dawn.
I got treated to a yummy dinner!
....along with this perfect little dessert!

But one of the best treats I got was seeing my card on one of Stampin' Up!'s Display Boards! It's the bottom card all the way in the left hand corner!

The Heart of Stampin' Up!

In many ways, Shelli Gardner, the founder & CEO of Stampin' Up!, is the heart of Stampin' Up! She really exhibits a commitment to SU! demonstrators that makes us feel like we're an important, valued & integral part of SU!
We did the Riverton tour - this is the Home Office where many of the SU! employees work.
Inside, look at the wonderful landscape that the employees & visitors can relax by.

I'm standing by Stampin' Up!'s Statement of the heart, which describes how I feel about my part in the Stampin' Up! family: To love what we do, to share what we love, as we help others enjoy creativity & worthwhile accomplishments...in this, we make a difference!
