Catch up on the last month




Quinn with Grandma and Grandpa Peter in California over Memorial Day.






Since my last post we visited California to visit friends and family for Whiffle Ball 2011 and Memorial Day. I was lucky enough to go to Huntington Beach with my sister-in-law Jenny, see my Grandma, visit my best friend Ange and meet her new little one Tessa (so cute!), as well as catch up with a lot of other friends at the Sartwell annual whiffle ball tournament. We also spent a lot of time with the Rockwell Grandparents and visited with Aunt Joyce (thanks for the statistics help!!!). All in all it was a very nice long weekend with family and friends.

Chris has been busy with a remodeling project on our bathroom. We used to have a combo shower/tub in our small master bathroom, but we (he) changed it out into a tiled shower with glass doors. I'll post the pic of the finished product. It was quite the project, but he did great for his first time basically building a shower! I really love it.

Finally, we are just hanging around the house with Quinn as we are pretty much homebodies. Enjoy the pics!

Relaxing by the pool - Chris hating my photo ops

Chris and I were fortunate enough to go to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico (near Cancun) for our dear friend's wedding and to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary. Quinn stayed home and was entertained, spoiled, and loved by her Grandma and Grandpa Rockwell. It was our first vacation away together since our honeymoon.

I can't believe, though, that this June will mark a total of 10 years that Chris and I have been together. It seems like yesterday that we met at Ryan Owen's apartment in Arcadia, Calif. (thanks, Dorothy!) and immediately had a connection (Bachelor show speak ;) ). Our first date happened the very next evening and we have been together ever since. However, the wedding we were in Mexico to witness was between a couple that had been together even longer (12 years?) and they were FINALLY tying the knot. We love Eric and Jaime and are so happy for them to begin their life as a married couple.
