Our little Lijy Bear

He's over a year old now and what a year it has been!

He has lived in 3 different states since he was born.

He definitely knows what a hotel is.

He is a little garbage disposal because he eats everything!

He love girls.... they make him smile.

His sister makes him laugh all the time.

We all love ya little guy!

Oklahoma girls!

Even though we celebrated little mr. Lijy's birthday on the road trip ( over a burger and a sundae in a local burger joint in Cheyenne, WY) and feel that we should be honoring him in this post, I need to download some recent photos of him..... so the big sister gets to take over again! She is happy to be back in Oklahoma with her friends here and loves her school! She truly is growing up so fast.

BARRE 3- OKC

I am pleased to announce that we are officially opening a barre 3 in Oklahoma City!! I could not be happier. I heart this workout more than ever as it has changed my life and it has so much depth. We are on a mission to change the lives of others in the Oklahoma City community.

p.s. this has just a "little" bit to do with why I have been absent from my blogs. I'm back!

Woo hoo!

Can't believe it Lijy..... you are almost 1. Where has the time gone? We are trying to plan your 1st birthday party in the midst of a very big move.... I'm thinking giraffes for you little guy, even though elephants are your favorite. Hmmm. Have to think this one out.

Love you tons.

USA vs. Ghana

Kell's Irish Pup in Portland, OR

Sad to say it came to an end today for our team USA. Oh how we never wanted it to end... but Ghana's second goal to win the game was pretty sweet. The last few games at Kell's bright and early in the am will be memories that won't be forgotten. The energy in this place was beyond words. Jumping up and down with baby in hand cheering this team on was a blast. My Dad was a trooper.. he was the first one in the door at 6:30am this morning to secure a table for us for the kickoff at 11:30am. I joined him at 8am to cheer on the Korean crowd that was there bright and early but unfortunately they were knocked out today as well. Here's to team USA for what they accomplished in the World Cup 2010. Brazil might see us there in 2014!!

Summertime.

Things to do before our big move:

-tackle our last 2 weeks of Spanish immersion camp(with our favorite maestra)
-find a house!
-pack up
-sell some furniture
-watch USA continue to kick butt in the World cup bright and early at Kell's
-pace ourselves with the best restaurants in the NW
-take a trip to the zoo
-get some sun
-play in the water @ Jamison Park


We will miss you Portland!

Happy Father's Day! We went over to Lincoln City, OR this past weekend to celebrate Father's Day and indulged in a non-working, very relaxing weekend of doing nothing.
