Mexico 2012 - Where we stayed

Danny and I had the amazing opportunity to join our dear friends Jordan, Adam and Cade Moll (as well as Jordan's parents Charlie and Kari) in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico again this year. If you remember we visited were here two years ago for Jordan and Adam's wedding. We had an amazing time. Here are a few pictures of our room, our view, and hotel (The Grand Bliss). Absolutely AMAZING there is no other word.

A Beautiful & Productive Saturday Afternoon

Saturday was filled with sunshine and chores. It was a perfect day to get stuff done and actually enjoy it. Lawn was mowed, cloths washed, house vacummed, cars washed (as you see here). Even Lyla helped. It was a fabulous and productive day.

Easter Weekend

Well....I still haven't taken out my camera (it is still collecting dust at our house)...but thankfully my mom took a few snaps over Easter weekend so the blog doesn't go another week without a post. Here are a few pics of Lyla down at the lake on Saturday (yes, we are well aware she is crazy to be in a swimsuit in April but there are some battles not worth fighting) and Sunday celebrating Easter. It was a great weekend full of family fun.

Big Milestone Today

Today was a big milestone for Lyla. My baby had to put her best foot forward and be tested for an amazing preschool we are hoping to sent her to this fall. Everything went great but it took all I had to not over mother and just let her do her own thing. Thankfully she showed them exactly who she was  (independant, sassy and social) and of course she loved ever minute. She even got to visit one of the classes and just sat right down and started singing with the other children. I know it is a long shot but this just feels meant to be. The pictures here are of Lyla all ready to go and a few of her getting ready. We painted her nails and all. It felt almost like her first day of school. So sentimental I feel.

Annual Alumni and Thunderbird Games

I know, I know, you don't have to tell me. My camera is literally sitting in a corner collecting dust. It has been a crazy couple of months but I am promise to work harder at updating the Savvy blog. Here are a couple snaps that I took with my pocket camera from Danny (and Dan's) annual Alumni game. It is always one of the highlights of the year and now that Lyla is getting older she is really getting into it. As you can see here after the Alumni game was over we stayed for the Seattle Thunderbirds game and Lyla was in love with "Cool Bird." I think if she could she would have followed him through the crowds. A very fun day.

Happy Valentine's Day

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day. We spent the evening as a family and actually with the whole family (Grandma and Grandpa Savage, Great Grandma Rose, Aunt Alicia, Uncle Tyler, and Wriley, Ruby and Ella). It was a perfect Valentine's. Here a couple pictures of the Valentine's treats that I made for Lyla's daycare party. It was my first pinterest inspired project. Lots of fun.  

Seattle Boat Show

This weekend we went to the Seattle Boat Show with my parents. We were a little nervous how Lyla would do but she was great! She had a blast especially when she got to go in the boats. We've all decided we need these at the lake. What a great weekend.
