MY GODSON BAILROK and the rest of the RSC crew @ the 1st annual ROK THIS WAY jam in Las Vegas on 4/24/10

Valentine's Day.

Word on the streets is that this movie got bad reviews. But I thought it was so cute, witty, sweet…even heart breaking at times. I definitely recommend this movie to everyone. It’s a perfect date night flick if you can get your boyfriend/fiancé/husband to take you to it. I could even see it being a movie you go with all the girls to. It was just so real, everyone can relate! Not to mention the awesome A-list cast. How can you resist?? It’s all of our favorite romantic comedy actors and actresses all in 1 movie! (Minus a few) But go, go , go see it!!

5 Random Things.

Tagged by Mrs.Boss Bizness herself.


1. If I really like an article of clothing, I will buy it in every color. (A very, very, very bad habit I am trying to break!)

2. My Favorite color is purple. I get approached a lot by very observant strangers…purple cell case, purple shirt, purple nails “your favorite color is purple”, yes indeedy! There is something so vibrant, secretive, yet playful about purple. It has so many different shades…it has always been and will continue to be my favorite color.

3. When I pay for something in cash and get money back I make sure all the bills are facing the same way. (why do people think this is totally weird?) I get weird stares by cashiers.

4. My Blackberry has become an extension of my body.

5. MAMI status and proud of it!


Tag, ur it! 5 random things about you. Ready, and go!

In Honor of LOVE DAY Feb 14, I thought the lyrics from this track were appropriate. So 10 yrs, 4 kids, 2 houses & cars later I still get butterflies around this guy…dedicated to the LOMF BJ.Isla.

Tell me I’m special even though I know I’m not

Make me feel good when I hurt so bad

Barely getting mad

I’m so glad I found you

I love being around you

You make it easy

Its as easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4

There’s only one thing

For you(I love you) I love you

There’s only one way to say

Those three words

That’s what I’ll do(I love you) I love you

Give me more loving from the very start

Piece me back together when I fall apart

Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends

Make me feel good when I hurt so bad

You’re the best that I’ve had

And I’m so glad I found youI love being around you

You make it easyIt’s easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4

When things just get better with time, you just KNOW. He’s the one that you think of when you hear a love song, he’s the one you want to watch every romantic movie with, he’s the one you wouldn’t want to change for anything.

Dear John.

I am a total sucker for romantic films…This one definitely got off to the right start, but as it went on, it totally fell off the LOVE TRAIN TRACK. Channing Tatum was extremely HOT as usual, but he cried a lot in this movie. After you see it, you’ll understand why. But I definitely think you should hold off to seeing it in the theatre, because it wasn’t really worth the $10.25 I paid. Get the bootleg or wait for it on DVD. I really love Amanda Seyfried…I think she’s really beautiful. When I was watching Mean Girls last night, it totally slipped my mind that it was her in that movie! I like her as the girl next door, not too much make-up. She really is drop-dead gorgeous. The ending was a total disappointment. Seriously…all you could hear was “that’s it?” coming from every persons mouth.

Saints don't lose on Sundays!!

It’s the SUPER SAINTS!! Super BOWL CHAMPIONS!!

I am a sucker for underdogs, but really…I was rooting for the Saints after my Niners didn’t make it to the playoffs. The New Orleans Saints were going for more than just a ring; they were looking to bring a Championship back for the people of New Orleans. Done deal right there people…sorry Colts fans maybe next year. CONGRATS to the MIGHTY SAINTS on the victory!!

Utah Recap.

So…UTAH was a blast! I don’t think I’ve ever been so exhausted from a trip before. Probably because we decided to make it a cousin trip, meaning…our parents didn’t go, so we had the kids all to ourselves, nobody to hand them off to when you needed a break. So it was already decided that next year we are taking them with us! I am having major withdrawals from my family. We are all super close and sometimes I wish we all lived down the street from each other again, instead of spread across the country like we are now.

I would have to say that with all the pressure from my cousins (with them threatening to push me down the extremely high bunny slope); I really improved in my snowboarding. Going with the new motto, “It’s now or never!” Because I thought it was much better for me to determine when I would be going down instead of someone pushing me. So I just kept going for it, it’s a given you are going to fall…with anything in life, you fall to get up and learn from your mistakes. I can’t wait for the next boarding trip!

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the trip…


Until next year...GUZMANS!!

Guzman Family Vacation.

So we are about to depart on our 1st annual “GUZMAN CUZ-O CABIN TRIP”. I’m too excited to be concentrating on work, so I figured I would blog instead. All my cousins from Texas & Chicago are flying in for this trip then we are off to Utah in the morning! :)

Since some of us started popping out kids, our summer cousin trips have ceased. Personally, I am too broke to travel and I feel guilty traveling without my kids. I know, you people may think I’m crazy, but when I am away from my kids for just a few hours I can’t help but stare at their pictures on my blackberry. I guess you could say I will trade a night home with my kids over any club. That’s just me…everyone is different.

Yay for family trips, this is much needed and long overdue!

Stay tuned for pictures and stories.

Amazing!

From my Family to Yours...

I can't believe Christmas 2009 is 7 days away...This year has went by too fast! This time last year I was pregnant with my 3rd child, so you know what that means...Brendan is turning 1!! I think I spent most of tonight just watching my kids sleep. They grow too fast, so i take a billion pictures and try and capture as much of them in their innocence as humanly possible. *sigh*

Here's a little taste of our Christmas Card this year:

What better way to spread holiday cheer than be super goofy??

Wishing you all...

a very MERRY HOLIDAY & a ROCKIN' NEW YEAR!!

"LOVE GAME"

ME being the LEO and HIM being the GEMINI

A Gemini individual will find much in common with a person born under the Leo zodiac sign. Both of them love to have fun, have an adventurous nature and enjoy life. They will find each other quite fascinating and love each other's company. The Lion is on the same intellectual level as the Gemini and this will make their conversions interesting as well as soul-satisfying. However, the varied interests of the latter may make a Leo jealous, as he wants to hold the primary importance in a relationship.

Leo is much more capable of forming long-lasting bonds than Gemini and tends to stick to the people and the things he likes. This may clash with the Gemini trait of being on the move, all the time. The sharp tongue of the latter may hurt the fragile ego of the Lion and this may bring some compatibility problems in this love match. However, a Leo forgives easily and this will act as a major relief. Geminis make Leos relax and they, in turn, teach the Twins generosity and warmth. If they learn to give each other freedom, this relationship can be a very strong one.

Gemini Man and Leo Woman

Except for a few grey areas, the love match of a Gemini man and Leo woman shows great degree of compatibility. It has all the signs of developing into a lasting bond. Both the individuals love to be the center of attraction and thrive on parties and socializing. They will never fall short of meaningful conversation and there will be no chances of boredom creeping into this relationship. However, he will have to control his flirtatious nature and she will have to learn to let him have his freedom, without being suspicious.

Gemini Woman and Leo Man

A Gemini woman and a Leo man have extremely good chances of getting on well with each other. Both are social individuals, who love meeting new people and enjoy going to the parties. She will love his grandiosity, his funny sense of humor and his generous nature. He will adore her for her vivacity, adventurous nature and passion for life. There will be no dearth of romance and passion in this relationship. One thing they will have to remember will be to complement each other and never ever stand on the opposite side of the road, whatever is the temptation.

They hit this one right on the nose!!

Memory Lane

Don’t you just love how you can look at a picture and remember the exact place it was taken? Or when you hear a song and all of a sudden it takes you back 5 or 10 years. It’s weird how certain things can trigger your mind to just go back into time, feeling that exact emotion as if you are living that moment over again. Every few years I dig into the archives of my computer or the boxes and boxes of pictures and letters at my parents house and I’m just thrown back. Where has the time gone?? When I was younger I was in such a rush to grow-up, but now I just wish time would slow down. I think it’s good to go back and take that journey of life through those pictures and songs. To remember how you were and to realize who you have become. I find it quite fascinating!

***MIGHTY 4 11 year anniversary***
OAKLAND,CA on SATURDAY 10/10/2009

(prepare to be amazed)

inspiration.

After 3 kids, you kind of just wish everything will go back to normal. (emphasizing on your body)! Unfortunately, you are never the same exact person you were before you had the baby after you had it. Make sense?! Your whole purpose of life changes...you no longer put "you" first. I know people always say, you still have to make time for you. And as easy as that sounds...it's not that easy...Because I would rather put their needs before my own.

Every year right before summer, i always dread it because summer=bathing suit. Which leads to bathing suit ready body...i am determined to be comfortable in a 2 piece next year...i am going to do it! No more babies for me... :(

my inspiration for after babie(s) body:

Brooke Burke

I don't think I've seen a cuter pregnant person than Brooke Burke. I've always thought she was just so freakin' hot since back in the day...Now, I have so much respect for her as a mother. I mean come on, i love her so much my daughters middle name is Brooke! I love happy endings...this is a fairy tale still going on...not even an ending yet, but you get the point.

Kelly Ripa

I've always loved Kelly Ripa because she just seems so intelligent, beautiful and funny! I love her sense of style because it's so effortless. The fact that she's petite with no boobs is in inspiring too...Because BIGGER ISN'T ALWAYS BETTER! Love yourself the way you are...her confidence exudes her, it breaks out as a bright light all over her. You can just tell it's TRUE HAPPINESS.

Living proof, you really can have it all...
