Happy 1st Birthday Chloe Jane Rives!!



Chloe is 1 today! Happy Birthday girl!!!
I've contained myself over the past couple of months and have not used my blog as a method of bragging on my precious pooch. But, today is her birthday...so here I go...I'm such a proud mom!


Chloe's first day as a Rives


Chloe's first haircut...she's so soft and fluffy!


Happy 4th of July! Chloe is proud to be an American!


Chloe moving into her first house! She was a great helper!


Bzzzzz...Chloe's first Halloween. Not one of her prouder moments!


Chloe's first visit to our cabin in Colorado...she didn't know what to do with all that white stuff!


So, we bought her some doggy snow boots! She was much happier...


Happy Birthday Chloe!!! We love you!

Stay tuned for some pictures from Chloe's family birthday party tonight....

Hoppy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! Wishing you all a wonderful day! I hope that you're all relaxing and enjoying time with your loved ones. Josh and I have had a great day so far. We went to early church at Irving Bible, had brunch at Unlce Julio's with the Rives' family and collected lots of loot at the Rives' annual Easter egg hunt (all the eggs are filled with money instead of candy...it's greatness!). We're going to have dinner tonight with mom, Jimmy, Jill, Kalie and Cole...and watch Kalie and Cole hunt Easter eggs of course! Josh was precious this morning...he had an adorable Easter egg candy bowl filled with my favorite candies waiting by the back door...so I would see it right before we left for church. It was so cute! Chloe liked it too....she enjoyed some dark chocolate Dove eggs before I did...and had the grass spread everywhere...she's a little toot! Chloe had her own Easter egg hunt today too...I hid cheerios all around the kitchen...and she found them all! :)

Happy Easter Friends!!!

He has risen....HALLELUJAH!!

XOXO,
Mindy

Need a Good Laugh?

There are a ton of great Seinfeld moments, but this one is definitely one of my all time favorites. It cracks up every time. So, if you need a good laugh today, check this clip out. If only we could all laugh like Elaine Bennis....

Enjoy!
