NOW, I HAVE TO GIVE A QUICK

PARKER UPDATE:

Parker loves to swim!!!!

And daddy takes him swimming almost everyday,

or at least 4 times a week.

He's kind of grown an obsession with water.

I predict he will be swimming by himself

within the next few months.

My husband started swimming

the stretch of an entire pool,

jumping off the high dive by the time

he was 2 years old. Uh oh!

I LOVE the Ocean &

my hubby is a die-hard surfer.

So we really hope our love for water

will be passed on to Parker.
 

We actually have an on going joke and

openly say that Parker is going to be the next

World Champ of the WCT

(World Championship Tour)

HAHA!

Did you know???

Kelly Slater is also an Aries, like little Parker

and his parents were also both Pisces

like my husband & I.

EMBRACE THIS GORGEOUS

CALIFORNIA SUNDAY!

WE LIKE TO CALL IT,

FAMILY DAY!

LOVE ALWAYS,

Lindsay, MOMMA ME

OUR ANNIVERSARY

~Today is my one year anniversary with 
Mr. Wright and as I sit here I have 
no idea what to write. ~ 


I married Mr. Wright on August 1, 2009.

This last year has been amazing and 
 spun our lives in a 180. 
It all began in March 2008...  
I surprised Aaron with a vacation to 
Hawaii for his 30th birthday. 

& he surprised me by proposing on the beach. 
The perfect happy ending to our new beginning. 

~Luckily, Aaron is a film maker and caught everything on tape. (Please see video below, let the video render for a few seconds)~

Today,
 I want to let my hubby know that I love and appreciate everything he does for our family.

How he has made me feel like the 
only woman in the room &

how he always knows how to make me smile.

How he kisses me ever so soft when I'm sleeping.

How every decision he makes, 
he makes for our family.

How he always puts others first &

how he is dedicated to make me smile everyday.

How he holds me when I cry &

how he is always there with a shoulder or ear.

How he is my best friend and soul mate.

I never believe him, 
but he always says that he has loved me

since the first time he laid eyes on me.

He never stops telling me how I have made his life worth living & my love is all he needs.

Today is the day I will remind him of 
how much I love him 
& everyday spent together is cherished
 and stored in my heart.

Babe,
I am more in love with you 
then I was yesterday.

Everyday is a journey, but with you 
by my side nothing else matters. 
Whatever path that lies in front of me,  

I know you are by my side. 

I promise to be here for you my entire life. 
You are my heart & soul.
Every breath I take is for you
& I love you with all my heart.


Yours Always,
Lindsay 

I CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT THE 

NEXT 50+ YEARS HAS IN STORE FOR US.

untiltoe be a Physcians Assistant.

SO, while this Momma goes to work at 7:00 am,

these guys get to stay and cuddle.

How could you not want to stay in bed with THIS face! 

I get to work at oh 7:25 a.m. which of course early, but late for me

(I get to leave early if I come in early)

So, I usually get to work, grab my cup of coffee, and day dream

that I was home. But, the hubby makes sure to send me stuff

like this.....

and this...

running arrands and I get this...

and then back home with this...

and then I get off work at 3:30 and get one more....

So I drive home as quick as I can and  like always I come home to a kiss 

from my hubby and s amile from Bubba strectched from ear to ear hysterically laughing while kicking his feet up in the air.

Ahhh, my boys! 

Just thought you should know that. I feel pretty darn lucky because 

I married this guy

Some know him as other names, but to me he's the love of my life, 

hubby, my soulmate, "baby, the better half,

my partner, & best friend. 

I just wanted to start our ONE YEAR Anniversary weekend off right.
