This is Halloween! Halloween!

Stacey returns to the stage!

In August I decided to relive my childhood and participate in Chino Community Children's Theatre (CCCT) 25 Anniversary Show. For most of you who did not know me as a child, from the ages between 10-17 this was my life! I was completely addicted! From performing on stage, to lighting, stage managing, I think I even managed the house one time! There was nothing I didn't want my hand in! As I entered Middle School I even became more involved with the adult Theatre performing and helping backstage. Like I said, it was an addiction and the most positive place you could ever imagine, filled with the most positive people. It was great reconnecting with everyone as an adult. It was also great to give Briz an opportunity to see what I cherished so much in my youth!

I used to babysit these two!

One of two Larson's who made my Theatre adventures possible.

Baker Brennan

At the end of July, Briz thought it would be fun to invest in a waffle maker. By the time we got home from our day Taylor was asleep. Brennan on the other hand was ready to make waffles with Daddy! We gave him Taylor's baking hat and apron and away they went making yummy waffles before bed.

Taylor's Dance Recital

In July, Taylor had her first dance recital! She enjoyed dance and wanted to do the recital however, did not care for dance class. It was a challenge to convince her every week. Towards the end she began to refuse to participate so Briz and I would make her go watch because of the commitment she agreed to. The night of the show, she didn't miss a step! We were so proud and once again learned our Taylor does things on her own terms!

HAPPY 30th Birthday Briz!

In July, I had a surprise Birthday party for Briz.

Again like his 23, I caught him off guard inviting people who he thought I would never think to invite! I was even surprised myself when Femi (a friend living in Sacramento) showed up. Briz had a great time seeing everybody, and it demonstrated to me once again how great of a guy my husband is to be cared by so many people!

Hanging out in the backyard.

Evening fire. Thanks Ben and Heri!

Stick with me!

I know I am posting things out of order, as I came to update I thought... Why didn't I post this? Or that? I am hoping to correct the order eventually!

Our first family ball game!

September 5, we ventured all the way up (15 min) to Lake Elsinore to meet up with the Knights for a Lake Elsinore Storm Baseball Game.








Here are the kids tailgating !

We had a Storm of a time! Looking forward to doing this again next season.
