WSCC Gala Part 1-Warning...massive amounts of pictures

So...last night was the Gala for Steve's school.....we had fun getting ready and I got to do makeup for some friends....we got all dolled up and headed out with our husbands:) there were 5 other couples there that we new so it was lots of fun!! I'm posting ALL the pictures b/c I was the only one with a camera...so the other gals want to copy the pictures from here:)
I'm so glad for FUN, WONDERFUL friends:)

Lacey and I right before leaving
This is my sweet friend Tahsha and her husband Jordan (and yes he is purposely making a ridiculous face in almost all his pictures)

Lacey and Aaron....Aaron is the quiet one in this relationship...i'm constantly laughing at their interactions...they are a GREAT couple~!

Kami and James

guess who.

Amy and Jeff

All of us ladies:) 3 of these women are pregnant...you'll have to figure out who:)

redundant I know...but this way they can pick the ones they like best.

The Men. A handsome looking bunch if I do say so myself.

This is their attempt at doing something cute for the camera.

Kami is pregnant with her 4th SON!!! she's so much fun and makes me laugh!

Lacey is just as Sassy as I am. I love her.

Tahsha is so cute...keeps me motivated to work out b/c she is a personal trainer and we've become good friends. She is only 21 so it's funny to me that she was like 7yrs old when I was graduating...but it just shows you that age is just a number. I love her alot and she's a good friend.

Kami let me hold her cute baby belly! she looks so beautiful doesn't she? just glowing:)

This is Amy. She is a constant inspiration to me. She has lost almost 100lbs this last year...she is the epitomy of strength, commitment and optimisim....she is the one that inspired me to get in shape again!

This is Nachelle...we didnt' find them til after dinner...but I cornered her for a picture. She is 20something weeks pregnant too and you can't even tell...she's adorable. Very sweet, kind... a little shy....good thing i'm not....we get along great!!:)

Lacey doesn't know how to just smile for the camera. .....gosh she's so much like me that way...I used to be such a poser for pictures!!! she looks pretty sexy though huh? ;)

Jordan...stop it! I told you I would post these pictures!! haha

Now this picture is really funny.....I told Lacey to give Aaron a kiss so I could snap a picture but when she leaned in to kiss him..he just looked at her all embarassed and said "what are you doing? "! LOL...she cracked right up and this is the pic I got. it's one of my favs from the night.

Kami and James again...I swear James is always smiling!

enough said.

bustin out on the dance floor!!!

I love this one. it is NOT posed....they really were dancing like this! Haha

are you seeing a theme here?

THIS is posed. Why you ask? oh...b/c MY husband is the ONLY one who wouldn't dance! ugh.

I laughed so hard when I took this picture. they're going to kill me for posting it!

The following are a bunch of really dumb pictures..but SO funny!

Turns out Tahsha loves to take self portraits too LOL!

Best Friends

I think one of my greatest new found joys is the sound of Megan and Erika laughing together. It's funny but everytime they start doing something silly and laughing really hard at eachother...no matter how stupid it is...I just start laughing aloud too....
the other day I was waiting in a huge line up at the post office....of course I had to put Erika down b/c who can hold 30lbs on their hip for that long??? so I put her down and she ran around in circles while Megan chased her...every once in a while she would look up at the crowd as if to say "look at how cute and charming I am".....all the women were smitten by her.
Anyway...then I had to pick her up b/c she kep trying to escape out the door so I put her up on the island counter and megan was standing on the ground in front of her.
Megan put her little fish (she calls Nemo) up on the counter and Erika of course grabbed it.....but not just grabbing it to look at it...but to intentionally take it from megan and taunt her with it!....so the game went on....erika passes it to megan and whips it out of her grasp before she can fully grab it...back and forth they went laughing hysterically.....megan has such a great laugh that she gets laughing REALLY hard and then Erika just plays into it.......so here we are all 3 of us laughing hysterics in the post office witha line up of about 15 people....I didn't even look up b/c I didn't want to see the expressions on people's faces...they were probably thinking I was a very silly mom...but I didn't care!
Anyway...here are a few pics of the girls together...they love eachother so much and I can't wait to see them grow up together:)

Megan giving Erika loves

Even before Erika could walk...she always found a way to be right where Megan was:)

you can't see megan in the picture but she's in her bed to the right...and the room is pitch black ..they're supposed to be sleeping but instead they're laughing and squeeling at eachother!!! lol

playing peek a boo through the seat while waiting for the ferry to go to my sisters

just snuggling on the couch watching cartoons:) so sweet.

and last but not least...making a mess together....it's what they do best:)

Notice Erika is pointing to the cheerios..incase I didn't notice them already:)

My little Ballerina....

Megan has been taking Ballet/Tap classes at Stites studio now for a few months...she LOVES it to say the least. She is really good and the teacher says she is very attentive:) we go every wednesday from 4:25-5:05 and I love it! the last wednesday of every month they leave the door open and let us watch....so this time I took lots of pics...unfortunately they're moving so fast that they are not that great...but oh well:)

Megan is the 3rd from the end with the blue elastics.

practicing her tap

performing at the end of the day:)

Cookies anyone?

So among other things...Lacey has been a good influence on me for getting back into cooking and baking on a regular basis:) So we used her recipe and made these cookies together while Erika was napping:):) they were YUMMY!!!
Love you meggy!!

Megan of course loved her job!!

What the Moosh has been upto....

Well....lets see...she uses her signs for:

-More

-Bottle

-all done

-potty

-bath

-please

still no words....Megan had about 20 words at this age...funny how they are so different:)

she walks around here like she owns the place and has mastered destroying the whole house in about 20minutes:) she is so darn cute though...what am I to do?

She points at everything saying "oh oh oh "...which means she wants it.

she had a really bad bum rash so she had to wear panties for a few days ...it was so cute!! those are megans panties...and notice they are TIGHT! hahahahahaha

Here she is "helping out". IF you consider helping out taking the bread and english muffins into my bathroom.

In her fort


dumping out all the cheerios onto the floor:)

Love you moosh.
