Spotlight #3 Max
Spotlight #3 is my nephew Max Edward Ballard. Born April 27th, 2007, this little one is about to turn one. Max was born on my parents wedding anniversary, that was really special for them and it definitely makes it easier to remember! Ryan was away at a training for the Army, but got a special leave to be by Misty's side the day of the birth, unfortunately it was only a day trip so off he went the next day. The first time I saw Max was at his baby blessing and I was amazed at how cuddly this little guy was and continues to be! He curls up into a ball in just about anyone's arms. His is such a little lovebug. Max has only gotten cuter over the months and now has cute puffy cheeks and a buzz cut of fluffy blonde hair. He is probably the happiest baby I have ever met; always laughing and smiling. My sister-in-law Misty has some classic footage of him laughing on her blog. Just about anything will make him laugh and smile and he loves to play with his big sister Dylen, he is pretty much in awe of her. I enjoyed spending time with Max and hope that my babies are as good as him one day! We'll be taking a trip up to Modesto for his first birthday next month, so I definitely look forward to having him snuggle me as I hold him. See you soon baby Max Buddy! We love you!!
he is a pretty great snuggler!! Although now that he can move and crawl and pull himself up on things it's a little harder to get a good quality snuggle, unless of course he is getting sleepy!! Cute post! We're excite for you to come next month!
This was our first date, we went to Shout House downtown for a friend of mine's birthday. Our stories differ a bit as to how we started, I still claim it was a "pseduo date" so it doesn't count that I invited Ken to come with me, but he clings to the "she asked me out" story. All in all no matter how it started things have turned out pretty good for both of us...
In the beginning...
Fishing is a big thing for Ken, so something I have needed to learn. I can't say I'm great, but I did catch a fish during our first trip out on Mission Bay.
Ken caught a fish too, he actually caught his first and helped me out quite a bit so I could catch mine. I did bait my own hooks though and I even got to drive the skiff!
Birthday's are great!
Ken took me to a nice romantic dinner for my birthday at George's on the roof in La Jolla. It over looked the cove and was gorgeous; not to mention the food was AMAZING!
The other love of my life
This is my dog Bandido. He is a Yorkshire Terrier, about to turn 4 in March. He was a surprise gift from my Aunt Kim when I got home from South America. From the second I laid eyes on that tiny guy I was sold. He now weighs in at about 5 pounds and is full grown. He mostly lives at my parents house these days because of my crazy shedule. That in itself is an ongoing battle, we have agreed to joint custody/ownership because they love him as much or more than I do. He has life made!
SpongeKen Squarepants
You don't have to be a kid to love this Bikini Bottom dweller.
Fun times at SeaWorld
Being with me has its benefits;) That's Ken with a Macaroni penguin.
Yep, that's a walrus he's touching.
Kyle and Meghan (Ken's brother and sister-in-law) joined us for a fun filled day at SeaWorld. Here we're meeting a beulga whale.
Master's Graduation
I had the cutest date at the ceremony! Thanks for all of the support!
Gone country?
Don't you love the days when you know you can get away with anything? I do. Ken even went to a country dive bar with me and my roommates for a night of country dancing. Those of you that know him know this is SO not him, that's how you know it's love;)
