10 years = NYC

It was 10 years ago today that Mr. Scott and I were married and it was 10 years ago that we went on our "honeymoon" to Laughlin, NV. Any yes, I said "honeymoon" because, well it was Laughlin - not exactly ranking the top 1,000 in destination choices for young honeymooners!! We spent most the time watching biker brawls and hanging out at the early bird special buffet; I knew then and there that the Mr. was going to have to make it up to me big time when we had the chance.

So, here we are, 10 years later and I am beyond excited that we are heading to NYC - yep, the Big Apple - next week to really celebrate this fantastic milestone for us. No kids, just us... 6 days/5 nights with no agenda but to soak in all the craziness that is NYC... oh, yeah and we're going to the Letterman show on Thursday so watch and see...

But what's an anniversary post without a little photo walk down memory lane... I present to you the young Mr. & Mrs. Herrick

A fish called Sam!!

It's sort of a given when you live in this desert land that your kids have to go through this right of passage called city league swim team. And I gotta say... BRING IT ON! Growing up I always wanted to be on a swim team, nevermind that my strokes often look like someone is having a seizure in the water, but none the less I wished I had tried. Well, you better believe that this mama is living vicariously through her kids when it comes to swim. Sweating palms. Nervous stomach. Pacing back and forth... this is usually how you can find me and Scott on the sidelines. I LOVE IT!! She was pretty good last year for her first year, and this year she really did even BETTER...bringing home 3 first place ribbons. I actually only ended up bring my camera to one of her meets, shameful, I know. But in my quest to be ever more present in my kids' lives I didn't want to be all camera-crazed, jockeying for the BEST position with all the mom-tographers videoing their super-star athletes. R...

Someone had a birthday...

Albeit almost 6 months ago, but better late than never. Samantha turned 9 years old in January and I cannot believe how big she is. Every once in a while I will catch a glimpse of her and just think to myself...WOW, you are all mine...I get to keep you forever!! I love that she is in our family and it would not be the same without her.
