What a treat to escape the Heat and drive to Ca. We stayed at the Bahia Resort on Mission Bay, our room had a door that opened right to the bay on the beach, and we could walk just minutes to the Ocean!!!   So many wonderful memories… we went to Sea World, Played in the Ocean, Found shells and crabs on Shell Beach, Shopping, Running through the sand, Late nights, and sooo much more.  Always such a great feeling to come home, but cannot wait to go back =) Enjoy the Photographs:

Blessings to you all, hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! xoxo-Jules

Addison has a love for photography just like her Mom and Brother.  So on July 12th it was very hot and I had 2 bored children….”very bored” as they would say.  So I think lets get out all our camera’s.  We are blessed to each have our own.  I then asked the children to walk around our home and take photographs of whatever they like.  They could move things around and make it like a “set” or just take them randomly.  We had the funnest 2 hours!!!!  This is a glimse into the life of what my Little Addison took that day- (no crops or edits by me)

I will be posting Life “Unscripted” by Cole..soon =)  God Bless.

The latest “additions” to our family! I have been wanting to post these photographs for a while.  Since living in the Desert..having Fish for a pet just isn’t so “cool” when all your friends have reptiles..LOL  Being a Reptile lover myself I could not argue, turtles being my fav…but Cole and Addison fell in love with these Leopard Geckos.  So we came home with 2 - YEAH BABY!!!  Addy named hers Kippy— You will see alot of him/her, he is very calm and and outgoing.  Cole named his Star Commander, you may not see to much of him, he has already escaped once, he is very wild, and does not like to be held…..I am trying to tame him down for Cole.  We do not know yet if they are Boys or Girls…we should know by the end of the year. Here they are— Oh and Yes, Addy would sleep with her’s on her chest if I would let her..LOL! —Meet “Kippy”—–

Meet “Start Commander”!——————

……and Cole having fun with “Kippy”!!-

My Mother was an Artist in every way…from Painting, to pottery, weaving, knitting, crocheting (sure i spelled that wrong).  She loved all Art, and created all her own Art. I know this is where I get my love for creating the scrapbook pages I do and knitting and crocheting the blankets i do as well.  Why am I talking about this today? Well yesterday I had a paint day with the kids. For alomst 5 hours we did nothing but paint in my Studio.  We enjoyed every minute while we were together.  Addy had started a Painting and asked for my help, I said with much hesitation yes.  Why did I hesitate? Well for several reasons…..BUT the main one being I want all her Art to come from HER and not from what I would do with it.  But while we worked together on mixing colors and painting the background and Cole was beside us working on his own Creation, I found it quite rewarding.  Addison loved and cherished my help and suggestions and in the end she could not have been more thrilled with what “WE” had made together.  Mother and Daughter.  I am so thankful for my little girl.  I shall Cherish this Piece of Art Forever.

Happy 4th of July!!! We had a blast at home doing the small party poppers…hehe!…I think I have this photo thing figured out with this new blog since changing servers….so Addy’s big surprise was more of a surprise for ME for her 5th Birthday. She wanted her ears Double Pierced.  I can hear the squirms..LOL.  First you have to know something about Addison, she does not flinch at pain, shots, getting blood taken etc…. so ever since her 4th birthday she has not stop asking for her second ones.  So I have avoided it all year and when we were at Claires the other day, i was looking for hair clips, she said …”Oh thanks mom now i can have my ears pierced again”…LOL  So I said to myself…..you only live once, it is gonna make her sooooo happy, lets do it!!!!!! SO we did!!!!  She did not flinch and is SO Happy and Proud of her new earings.  For those of you that are thinking….um NO more btw…till she is older LOL.  This is it.  SO here is a pic of her and then some from our 4th of July……Then I will be back to post some of my Favs from the Wedding.  Love to you all. ” Learn to live one day at a time. By an act of your will, choose to start enjoying your life right now. Enjoy everything in your life. {CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY} XOXO-

I wanted to put up a few of my favorite Photographs from my trip to Chicago, very hard to decide since I had such a blast in Chicago staying with my Sister Jenn and going to my Bro’s Wedding!!!!!!  It was great to see family I have not seen in a while and also friends of Josh’s that I have not seen in years….some I could barely recognise, it was great!!!!  We also took my kids to the cemetary for the first time to meet Grandpa Warren and Grandma Mary and that was a very special day.  They have looked forward to that for a while now.  Angelika (Josh’s wife) did so many special things to make the wedding day special for my Brother and let him know she was including our Mom and Dad spiritually in every way she could.  It was just beautiful.  I met Jenn’s Fiance Richard for the first time. He is a wonderful kind and loving and strong man. I could not be happier for them.  Jenn threw a Birthday party for Addy the night we arrived and made her first double layered cake…YUM!  Addison has not stopped taking photo’s with her new digi camera Jenn & Josh gave her.  I actually got to visit scrapbook stores in the windy city for the time….YEAH…..had to buy some goodies too..hehe!  Alrighty some of my favs from our Vacation———-     photos coming..having an issue with my new blog,  for now you can view some at my website- www.juliegeiger.com. Hopefully i will have this resolved soon. Oh yeah almost forgot, cole is better, yay!!! AND I have a surprise to share in my next post if i can get the photos in…..Addy got a special treat for her 5th Birthday- xoxo-
