Jackson's Birthday Party!

For Jack's 4th birthday, he decided he wanted a superhero-themed party! The turnout was great and the decor was super cute!
 One of Rachel's gifts is decorating and throwing parties. She's so creative when it comes to that stuff! 
 Lilly was a tired girl! 

 I LOVE this picture that I got of Jackson! I decided as I walked outside to take pics, that I wanted one of the backs of a bunch of the kids, with Jackson turned to look at me--and I actually got one!! I was so happy no one else turned the moment I called out his name! 













I had a good time watching all the kids play and of course I'll always love taking pictures! [Especially of Rach's adorable kids!] Thanks for inviting us, Rachel!

New friends!

Back in November, Tyler and I had been hanging out alot with our good friend, Corey, when I decided it would be fun to set him up with my friend from work so we could double date! I based the decision solely on the fact that both Corey and Erin loved soccer, so I figured that would be enough of a similarity to have a few fun dates. 
Now, I feel kinda weird blogging about some of their dates, cause well...it's not about Tyler or I, but still, we were there and these are memories I want documented for future reading. So...I'm doing it anyways. 
November 11th was their first date. First we ate sub sandwiches made with Jimmy John's bread and then we went mini-golfing at Trafalga. Following Trafalga, we came back and hung out! Maybe we watched a movie...I'm not sure I remember. Anyways, it was a success, I guess, cause after Corey got back from walking Erin to her car, he thanked us for hooking them up and told us that he also got her phone number. Well done, Corey. 

Skip to a couple weeks later...or maybe a few days. Darn it. It's only been 3 months and I've already forgotten so much! Well, the four of us spent alot of time together, and at one point we did their favorite thing! Soccer!
I'm not exactly very coordinated with my feet, so I was hesitant to play at first and decided I would just take pictures. 


Eventually, I put down the camera and joined in the fun. Surprisingly, I wasn't as terrible as I thought I was going to be! 
Since then, Erin and Corey have made their relationship official and the four of us are best friends! AND, we have plans to go to Disneyland the day after Erin graduates!! It's gonna sweeet!
