James and the Girls >>>

Last night we decided to grill our dinner on the bbq pit, always a good choice.  The weather was amazing last night.  Lukewarm with a slight breeze, and we had the golden hour light shining on us.  I always end up being the one to take over the grilling... which I like!  I love grilling!  We had chicken marinated in citrus sauce, zuchinni and corn sprinkled with fresh rosemary, and a bit of our leftover alfredo pasta from the night before.  Yummy!!!  James even ate two bites of zuchinni!  I almost couldnt believe my eyes or ears... Afterwards, since our babies joined us outside, we hung out with them for a bit.  I had to run in and get my camera b/c there were just so many cute moments happening!  Its very rare that James lets me take his picture... especially ones by himself like the close up below!  That is almost a once in a lifetime shot, ha ha!  Okay girls... for this post only, I wont get offended if you tell me just how hot my hubby is!!!  I think he could hear it from someone other than me once in a while, so if you think so, go ahead and say so below :)  Every man could use a little reassurance now and then, right?  (healthy reassurance that is...)

  3. Coke always tastes better from a bottle, especially if you are washing down what sounds like a delicious meal!

  4. Haha well of course James is good lookin. When I was back in HS, one of my guard friends found out who I had a crush on was hot, and said one day he'd make a "hella hot husband" (because we say 'hella' here.) And I think this is what you have here ; ] But more importantly, he is just very cute and what beautiful eyes!

    And not to leave anyone out, Violet and Bella are beauties too! Love the middle kitty pics (look at that big fluffy belly!) and Violet always looks fluffy and so soft!

    Basically, you all make a beautiful family together : ]

  7. He is super handsome but I think the best part is how much he loves the doggies. :) I bet he will be an amazing dad someday!

  9. you can tell him how much I love his MXPX shirt, and how I stood five feet from a speaker as tall as me in high school at an MXPX show and pretty much have permanent ear damage from that show. :)

  12. Your boy and girls are too precious! Sometimes (but not always) it's completely worth running inside for the camera to capture the moment.

  14. I totally didn't notice the MXPX shirt. My dad jammed with them back when they still called themselves Magnified Plaid. :)

  17. Violet & Bella are just gorgeous! Your husband isn't bad, either. Thanks for my sweatshirt, James!

  18. thanks girls!!! im happy you shared your love towards him :)

    kate... for the most part he hates his picture taken, so really it was just having my camera at the right moment for the right mood, ha ha! if that makes sense... sometimes i can beg him to do an outfit or couple shot with me... but those are few and far between.

    thanks len! i use a canon 50D :)
