Your Baptism

Today our families gathered to baptize you. The mass was at 2pm at St James in Redondo Beach. You were such a good girl through out but the mum mum crackers helped. Your Godparents were Uncle John and your Tia Vero. They both bought you special necklaces which you can wear when you are older. You wore your Uncle Jimmy's gown which is 25 years old and it looked so cute on you. We had lunch after at our house to celebrate. You are our little angel and you are such a blessing to us all.

Christmas Eve Dinner at the Alvarados

My sister made a wonderful dinner for us! The boys were soo happy to see us as it would just be us and Nana Chris and Katrina joining them. We had ham, stuffing and all the other delicious sides my sister makes! We had great conversation and my sis was in a great mood! I think its the big crowds that stress her out! After dinner we played catch phrase and they gave me the most adorable little Pooh Bear nighty for the baby. I love it! I wanted to tell her about Michaela so bad but Dennis made me promise we would tell his parents first. We left at 10pm to go to mass. We had a great Christmas. Thanks Vero!

Jesse's girls night

My little cousin Jessica is getting married next month. I felt so bad that I did not attend her bridal shower that I wanted to do something nice to get all the girl cousins together. I made yummy apps and the Gonzalez cousins and my sister came over. We sat around gave her advice about marriage....like..Be honest, Let him be the man, don't try to do everything, don't get worked up over the little things, don't go to bed mad, don't be afraid to ask for help. We all giggled and I guess reflected a little about our own married life. She is only 21 and said she was not scared at all. To make the evening fun I invited Mindi to host a Passion Party for us. She came with a suit case of goodies. We all laughed and turned red on occasion with all the toys, lotions, and vibrating thingy's!

We all had a great night and I was so happy that everyone came over! Congrats Jessie we wish you the best!
