Reigning Down on Oregon

I went to a bellydancing event this weekend and it was awesome. I did solo while I was there but was not to happy with my performance so we won't talk much about that. I did have fun doing it and that is all that matters and I also am learning each time I screw up so you live and you learn. The event was thrown together by my friends and troupe that I use to tribal dance with. It was awesome. It had a good amount of workshops and they had awesome vendors there. I got myself some pants a cool bussle and I ordered a new skirt for my bellydancing. I will be taking pictures and putting them on so you can see how cool they are. I am excited for this event again. They are planning on doing it every year. It is just nice to hang out with my girls and dress up in the middle of the woods. You meet a lot of good people at these types of events. Just great people. Tons of fun.

Majenta's first pony tail

Here is Majenta's first pony tail. Her hair is just long enough to stay up. She is so cute. She was watching Dora the Explorer in Spanish that is why I was able to get a picture otherwise she was running all over trying to to avoid the camera.











Here are some other pictures that I found when I was uploading these ones I will have to figure out when they were because my camera did not have the date set so I don't have record. That is going to be fun.


This is Lucciano getting his orange belt


This is Lucciano getting his green belt


These two pictures are at Tia Vanessa's house. These are Majenta's cousin's sunglasses. So cute.




I don't remember when I took these pictures but it was around when Majenta was new with having pigtails. That was the reason why I was taking pictures. Plus she is just cute.




This is at Majenta's 1st Birthday


This is Jan 2010. This is the first time I had her draw me a picture. She was having a lot of fun taking the lid off and on the markers.

Just another day

We am getting closer to have my invitation and announcements website up and running. www.pinklaughs.com I am so excited. I just need to get a few more designs put together so that I can fill up the different catagories I am planning on have. So please keep me in mind for any holiday cards that you want of your family or party invitations or announcements e.g. baby announcements. Also if there are family businesse's that anyone has that I can help support please let me know. I want to make sure we support you also. This weekend we are just staying around the house cleaning like I do every second I have that I am not at work and working on the website. Then on Sunday we are going to Portland to pick up Ruben's son Lucciano and we are going to volunteer making cards for sick kids. We are excited to do this. We were motivated to do this because of the promotion Disney is doing Give a Day. Get a Disney Day we are planning a trip to disneyland. This will be a well deserved trip. We have not been on a family vacation since we went down to Ecuador for our wedding 4 years ago. I am also excited because we will be also visiting my family in Arizona to but (HUSH HUSH) for the kids they don't know yet it is going to be a suprise so if you know any of our kids please don't say anything thanks.

Pictures from Drag Show on 30th Birthday



How do you like my eye lashes. Thought I would try them out. They were fun. This is the makeup job the Mac counter at Nordstroms did for me before I went out.



These are my new jeans. This are my only jeans. For some reason I had lost all of my jeans and have not worn any for around 3 years. Wow. I love these ones. Natalie and I went shopping before we went out.



This gal was funny.


Dusty and Britt with one of the Drag Queens. She was one of their favorite.

Surrogacy Blog

I am getting closer and closer to starting my shots so that we can do the embryo transfer and I just now thought I should have been recording the entire time of the process I have had to go through with my surrogacy. So anyone that is interested in keeping up with my surrogacy and what steps I went through please follow my other blog. I have to back date a bunch of stuff so I will try to do that ASAP.

30th Birthday Event

Well my friends decided to take me to a Drag Queen show up in Portland but before I went my friend and co-worker Natalie took me shopping got my makeup done. I was all gussied up. I felt very cute. I got some fake eye lashes which were cool. We got ready and drove up to the place called Darcelle's. I have only been to a Drag Queen show once but this one was a really funny show. We got there and got our picture taken with Darcelle which was fun. Darcelle tells jokes and also recongnized everyone that had a birthday which we spoke into a microphone telling her our age and where we were from. They also sent me home with a audio tape of the show so I could hear myself on the show. I had a blast. We watched a bunch of drag queens show there stuff (not literally). I will have pictures later my friend still needs to give them to me.

Thank you Natalie for having the idea I had a TON of fun this was my best birthday ever. Usually I try not to make a big deal about it so this was a first. Happy 30 to me.

4 year wedding anniversary

Ruben and I have been married for 4 years actually it is 4 1/2 today because we actually signed papers in July and had the wedding in Ecuador in January 2006. I can't believe that it has been that long already. We have a beautiful daughter Majenta that just turned 1 1/2 on Dec 25th 2009 and an awesome son Lucciano who just turned 7 1/2. At this point of our life we are doing awesome. We have gone through our share of bumps in the road over the 4 years but we have worked hard on our relationship and we continue to try to be understanding with each other and to make sure we are always thinking about the other person and how they feel when we are communicating and it has definetly paid off. We are very much in the same mind set of what are goals are for the future and we are working as a team to get there. I feel truely blessed to have my family and I am excited to spend the rest of my life with them. Love you hubby and ready for more years to come.

New Year 2010

Well my sister Jessica has encouraged me to start back up on my blogging. So here we are a new year a new beginning. We stayed home for New Years because we had spent a lot of time for Christmas around family so we thought it would be nice to have a peaceful weekend at home. Majenta is growing up so fast. She is getting more and more independent and she is saying so many new words. Her newest is Moon. She loves to point at the moon in the sky and say "Moon" it s so cute. Well that is all for now I need to spend time putting things back together with my blog. Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.
