Open House

Isabella's Kindergarten open house. The room was decorated so kindergartenish :O) She had fun showing us all the things she had done. She had made a All About Me Book full of different questions about herself. If you could be anywhere, where would it be: Palm Desert. Where are you happy: At the zoo. Where are you sad: At the Hospital (she was there for a week last year) What do you want to be when you grow up: A Mom. Ya, my kid wants to be a Mom, how cool is that. Chris and I both had tears in our eyes. He read it first and then had me read it. I can't describe the feeling it gave me. It was great!

heres some more pictures

we did it :O)

how much fun was that. the girls were so excited. from the moment they woke up they were already talking about it. so here it is. 

i'm ready

i've tried it before, lets try it again. there are so many things going on in the murphy home that we thought we'd share, a little of this & a little of that. one thing that we are so excited about is that the girls are getting their hair cut tomorrow to donate to locks of love. mamu (my mom) and papa (rick) are coming over tomorrow to celebrate mothers day and also to celebrate the gift of giving. we are going to take a ton of pictures, video tape and journal.  we'll be sure to share the experience with you. here are a few pictures taken last month just to give you an idea of the length. 

to all the mama's out there, happy mothers day. what a day it is to rejoice in being a MOM. 

Looking Back

What a great year. Isabella started kindergarten. Sophia started preschool. Chris went back to school to get his administration degree. SoSoBella Designs is going strong. New stores are carrying my flip flops. Its been so much fun, lots of work but tons of fun. Life is good for the Murphy Family. We are looking forward to what 2008 has in store for us.

Halloween Day

Isabella had a Halloween parade at school. Sophia, Chris and I went. Sophia enjoyed seeing all the different costumes from her Daddy's shoulders. Isabella had a blast parading around. It was great! We had a neighborhood party early evening, came home and stared our night. We had a blast.
Here are some pictures from our day.

Halloween Fun

Our Halloween started Tuesday with Sophia's Halloween Parade at preschool. She didn't want anything to do with parading around in front of all the families from school but she sure looked cute in her Puppy costume. I am pretty sure if her sister had been there she'd have been fine. She feels safe and secure when Isabella is around. She just adores her big sister.

A Great Start to the Holiday Season

It seems like as soon as Halloween is here, Christmas is here. In most of the stores that I went in, while they were putting out the Halloween decorations they were making room for the Christmas decorations. Crazy, but fun.
We've started off our Holiday season by going to a Pumpkin Carving Party at our friends the Madison's Home. Their daughter McKenna and Isabella (pictured together) are on the same soccer team. Her Daddy, Dave and Chris coach the team together. We had a lot of fun carving pumpkins. The whole night was great. There was laughter, fun, great food, drinks, music....good times for sure. The kids had a blast playing, laughing, running around, eating, running around, carving pumpkins, running around, did I say running around, :O) They had a so much fun.

New Creations

Ok, I had to play around. I wanted to see if I could post a picture and whala, I did. I love it. This is going to be so much fun.
