My daughter and my neice...

This is Emily and my neice Macy. Macy is Pat's brother's daughter. Emily and Macy are very close and really enjoy spending time together! These pictures were taken on Christmas day. They looked SOOO much alike when they were babies and toddlers!! They still look alike and have the EXACT same eye color. Macy is a sweet girl and we always look foward to Christmas break because she usually comes and spends some time with us at our home!! I love these pictures...they are both such beautiful young ladies!!

Winter in San Diego...

We are truly blessed to live in such a beautiful part of the US!!! The weather here is pretty amazing in the winter!! (knock on wood!!ha) This week has been beautiful. In fact there were 2 days I considered turning on my AC!! I know...crazy, right!! Along with the great weather there have been amazing waves at the beaches here!! I mean like 10-15 ft waves!! So, of course Patrick had to go to the beach!! He such a lover of the outdoors!! I love that about him. He likes to keep the blind on his window up so he can see outside and enjoy the view!! He would be very happy living up on a mountain somewhere!!

These are some pictures of Patrick boogie boarding this last week. The waves were big and according to Patrick a lot of fun!! I have to admit...it scares me every time he goes!! I always pray that he will be safe!!
