Enough is Enough!


Alright folks. I'll lay it out straight. I understand the pain you have been experiencing. And for that, I would like to take a moment and sincerely apologize for not having updated this sooner. Yes, I know it has been almost (if not more than, I mean, who's counting?) nine months since I last posted... and no nine months is not significant for any reason... but, I type before you today and say, that I am back with a vengeance! Sadly this does not mean that I have committed to being a regular blogger, so keep your Kleenex close at hand, but I do promise to have at more posts this year than last year. Even if only by one... I promise I will accomplish this goal. So in genuine carpe diem fashion, let me just catch you up on a little bit of what we here call "life" in the Villalobos clan!

Fun facts:
  • Nick's bike was stolen last fall, so we got him a new one and now he thinks he's Lance Armstrong
  • Highlights of Christmas were unquestionably: the Air Hog remote-control helicopter from Santa, my classy onesie pyjama (notice no "s"), and our Cutco garlic press
  • We are addicted to Modern Family
  • We're going to San Fran this summer for an International Bass Competition!
  • Baby Ezra, our nephew, somehow manages to make his way into our daily conversations - often we just sit and think, "I wonder what Baby Ezra's doing?"
  • I just got Mini Shopaholic today - FINALLY - from the library because it has been on hold for AGES!
  • Nick and I recently watched Mrs. Doubtfire and laughed 8.5 times more than we ever could have as kids (watch it and see for yourself!)
  • We're Gleeks
  • I cannot stop listening to "Love love love" by Hope ft. Jason Mraz - Check it out!
And, better yet!

Since a picture is worth a thousand words... feast your eyes ladies and gentleman.

FEAST!

(and I may or may not add just a touch of words... you know... just to clarify)


Nick and I at the Nutcracker Ballet

It was so fun to actually get to see a show WITH him!

Piece of advice for all you chefs out there -
adding more bananas than the recipe calls for
does NOT make it turn out better.
How many 9x13s of banana bread have
you seen last on a spatula?

(put a check in that box on my bucket list!)

Visiting with friends and family:
Krista, Jess, baby Isla and Ash.

Going "8-Mile" for our annual Thanksgiving hike

The girls! Mom and Ash came to visit and
we saw Nick play in the Sound of Music!!

He stole my heart before he even knew it

Ingenuity runs in the family

Is that the SIMPLY 3 TRIO?!!!!!!!!!!
(local celebrities, haha)
Though I bet you didn't know
they just booked a gig in Scotland!
I just couldn't finish this post without
giving them a shout out!

Okay. It has been real. Till next time.

  1. Ha, I thought I was seeing things when I noticed on my little sidebar thing that your blog was updated 20 hours ago. Love the pictures and the commentary, of course. Did anyone ever tell you to publish your work? :)
    P.S. Are you done with mini shopaholic yet? It's awesome!

  4. FINALLY!!!

    I kid you not, I was scrolling down updating my list of blog friends and when I came across your name tonight I clicked on it and thought as it was loading on the computer, "If I see 'We like to move it move it' again, I'm deleting her."

    It was a close one.

    P.S. i miss you guys :)
