catching up with old Volleyball friends

Friday night I went out to dinner with some of the girls I played volleyball with at UVSC in 2000. It was such a fun time. Lisa I had not seen in 7 years, which blows my mind. She was here from Arizona for our friend LIz's wedding. But we has such a great time reflecting on old fun memories and catching up on what we have been doing since the volleyball days. Thanks so much girls for all the laughs and giggles and great memories. We need to get together more often. Look at the punks in the background who joined our picture. HAHA.

STARTING SOLIDS

What a Champ!!

Derek had an amazing weekend. For those who don't know Derek has come "out of retirement" and had his first fight in two years this last weekend. He did amazing and won the Throwdown belt for 185. The event was a blast. Hats off to Throwdown for putting on an amazing show.

TWINS

The twins are getting so old they will be 8 months next week, I can hardly believe it. I can honestly say that they have been nothing but pure joy. I have loved so much getting to have little boys. And they melt my heart. Their little personalities are starting to come out. Dominic(Left) Is super silly and so happy. He loves to get your attention and get a party started. And Zak(Right) Is just your peaceful, happy, easy-going little boy. He is very mellow. Well the debate is still whether or not they are identical. Derek and I think they are fraternal. But every one argues that they are identical. What do you think?
