Flower girl and first day of school!

Hope everyone had a great Labor day weekend!  Ours was pretty full but nonetheless fun! it kind of started early due to my cousin getting married On Friday Sept 2nd!!! The wedding and bride were beautiful, as well as an adorible little flower girl (wo didnt make it down the aisle!!!) YES miss Kayla Grace was one of the Flower girls and was supposed to walk down with me since I was the Matron of honor and came before the bride, but that didnt really work as planned! See I was supposed to walk down with the youngest flower girl and ring bearer (she had four) which was Kayla and my nephew Mason, I had a great plan of giving them lollipops and brive them right before there big entrance, but unfortunately my flower girl got fussy before we made it to the line  up so I made the big mistake of giving her the lolliop before and by the time we actually had to walk down she had finished it and was crying for more. I defenitely had to end up carrying her while holding Mason's hand, which was ok until he dropped his lollipop on the ground and started crying! So needless to say I was a very floushed matron of honor trying to carry my bouquet/ two toddlers, which in the end made for a good laugh and cute pictures.

The rest of the weekend consisted of us trying to get organized and  ready for the first day of Second Grade! Umm didnt I just drop him off on his first day of Kindergarten?! Geez does time Fly! Austin was so excited but nervous at the same time, he was so cute trying to act very cool and collective, seeing his smile when i picked him up made me so happy to know that he had a succesful fist day!!!

My baby is two!!!! my sweet lil princess celebrated her second birthday August 14th, and even though its a couple of weeks late here are the pics!!

so this was her invite which I got from Etsy's treasuredmoments2000; and well her name is obviously not Olivia but they used her invite as one of their models on their website so all of the info I'm here is not ours but you get the point.








birthday girl got a fat lip from jumping on the moon bounce

we had minnie mouse ears for all the guests



Dylan also joined the fun!


it was really cute seeing the kids( mostly toddlers) try to break the pinata

VA's got the shakes!!!

So I was getting ready to post about Kayla's 2nd birthday party which was two weekends ago, but something really crazy, freaky, scary happened in VA!!! Now I'm originally from Peru so I've had my fair share of random earthquakes but seriously I don't really remember them since I was so young when I lived there. Well today around 2pm we had a 5.8 earthquake!!!! I had just pulled up to the mall with the kids, I was there meeting my sister with her two kids, we were going to go shopping for a friends baby shower and right when I was putting Dylan in the stroller, the ground started shaking! I looked over at my sis and we were like WTF is going on? Kayla and Austin were still in the car so I quickly went and got them out, by that time the shaking had pretty much stopped and everyone was outside the mall talking about it and freaking out!!!

Ok if you know me then you know I'm the biggest worrier! But of course I tried to pretend like everything was going to be ok and stay strong for the kids, well mainly Austin bc the two little ones had no idea what was going on?!

Luckily everyone is fine and I don't think they have confirmed any damages or injuries but it was def a very scary afternoon, specially since the phone lines were down and it took over 30 minutes to get a hold of my husband!

The news said that it was a pretty big one for the east coast and people in NY, Ohio, Boston felt it! Hope everyone is ok If you lived in any of these areas.
