South Lake Tahoe fam. trip {Nov. part 2}

Mostly phone photos of our trip. We stayed in a 3 bedroom cabin, we did good for 11 people and 1 bathroom although a 2nd one would've been better Overall it went better than I expected =) Hoping next time my parents can go too.

It was a Winter Wonderland and even though we were worried about needing chains for the car tires, we ended not needing them =) only saw like 2-3 cars with them in the 4 day-trip.

Took these ones the afternoon before we came back...looking forward to hopefully going back next year =)

November {part 1}

Even though I told my self I wanted to post more often, didn't get to it =( Either lacking motivation to do it or just too busy. Anyhow, here are some memories:

guess who got a selfie=stick?...only have used it like 3 times =)

This nephew of mine became a daddy (Nov. 05) to 7 adorable puppies (which I still have to meet).


The first Saturday of November,my self, my parents, brothers and their families got together for a "carne asada" bbq. I got to take a family group photo, only missing my husband:

We had a good time and enjoyed good food. At the end of the day we planned a trip to Lake Tahoe for Thanksgiving Weekend. Photos of that in the next post =)

October so far.

Two more weeks left for October and 2 and 1/2 months left for this year...almost 34 =0 wow, time sure goes by quickly, even if it seems nothing changes, it does. But I don't want to get too sentimental so instead here I'm just gonna post pictures (mostly from my phone) from the past 3 wks.


This year's Fall decor, simple.

Things and people that have made me smile =)

I was off for 1 week and we had our 8th year anniversary on the 7th, so we did a mini photo session at the same spot we did it last year. Even though my camera's control died as soon as we got there and I had to run back and forth, I think we got a few nice shots.


A comparison from last year and this year =)

and me from the 7th and yesterday:

same, but different.

September...

I was planning to blog at least twice this month, but here I'm now 'til the end of the month. Hopefully I'll blog twice at least in one of the remaining moths of the year, we'll see.
It's finally Fall! although the weather here has been more hot than cool. This past month has been in the 80-90's (almost every day) =( too hot for my liking. Hopefully the next weeks will actually bring some Fall weather 50-60's would be nice, some rain too. Not much going on, but looking forward to my week off the 1st week of October, ever since we got married I've been taking the week of our anniversary off.
This year we were supposed to go to Disneyland and I was really looking forward to it. The last time we went out of town together was since 2009 to celebrate our 2nd yr anniversary. So like I was really excited about this trip, especially to leave together, but after doing math and actually trying to book the hotel and plane tickets it was going to be about $500 dollars over budget...which to some people it might not be much, but in our case it was. So my husband decided it was better to save the money...just hope we do go next year.
Since the Disney trip was canceled I decide to go to see The lion king Broadway show. I had wanted to go see it since last time they came about 3 years ago so I'm glad I got to go this time. Took one of my nieces and to me it was a great show, I definitely recommend it =)
Here is the month in photos (phone):

Us being silly



Rojo trying to keep cool, it was in the 90's

Be back next month w/more photos.

Life...the past 3 weeks.

Not much has happened in the past 3 weeks... or maybe, I'm not sure.
*John and I went for an eye check up and we both got new glasses.
*Nieces started school this past Monday, they were not overly excited, haha =)
*My car broke down about 5 mins from home and the repairs were extra $$ that I was not planning on spending, but overall it's a good old car.
*Had to deal w/some rude and unprofessional people for some important/personal stuff, but trying to remain positive about the situation.
*Got to do a session (1st and maybe only of the year) and earn a bit of extra cash so that's always good.
*Lastly, last Sunday John and I went to my parents for dinner and had a really good time and enjoy some really yummy food =)
*Got a new cell phone, which I'm really liking so far.
Now some pics:

These are phone pics from 08/10-08/29
