HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MAYA!

Happy 6th Birthday to our Sweet Maya!

Today we celebrated the day we were made parents. It's hard to believe we have a 6 year old daughter! We are so proud of our little princess. WE LOVE YOU BABY GIRL!

Maya's room was decorated while she slept, so she woke up on her birthday to a SURPRISE!

Our traditional breakfast in bed! (Donut & Chocolate Milk....YUM!)

Make a wish!

Last weekend we had a few friends and some family join us for a camping trip in San Clemente! Maya's word were . . . "This is the BEST day EVER!"

Easter Pictures

There are certain times of the year that we get annual pictures taken of the girls. I love looking back at the previous years' pictures in the frame. Here's our annual Easter Picture of the Hustead girls!

Sunday the Jarvis family and some friends went to a Fashion Show at The Balboa Bay Club in Newport Beach, featuring my sister, Roxi's, National Charity League class. It is an amazing fundraiser that their NCL chapter puts on annually where they have silent auctions, raffles, tons of fun activities. After all the bidding and raffles are closed, everyone heads into the main room where they enjoy a fabulous lunch and the main even . . . a fashion show . . . where the girls wear clothes from local stores and boutiques. We had so much fun and Roxi was AMAZING. She did such a great job. Look out Tyra, you may see this girl in front of you some day . . .

Work it, girl!

Check out the pose!

Cute beach dress, too bad it's $400

Maya was SO into it. She wants to know when she can do it!!

Maya and I have done a little spring cleaning . . .

. . . Stay tuned for the results!!

Here we go, Maya, Here we go!

Maya had her very first softball game Tuesday night! She has been going to weekly practices with her team and a few practices here and there with good 'ol Dad & Mom. As I was explaining what was going to happen, I told her she would be hitting off of a tee. She said, "But I don't like the tee, I want them to pitch it to me!" I guess those side lessons with Chad and I are paying off (and with a little help from Papa and the bucket of balls he let us use! Thanks Papa!) She is #4, just like her Daddy was playing soccer when he was a boy!

Our girl in action!

Batter up!

Runnin' the bases


Check out that fielder


"When is it my turn?"


She did a great job. She even had a great throw from third base all the way to first! She can't wait till her next game!

Into YOUR Hands

Richard "Dick" Lambert

May 13, 1922-January 9, 2009



Saturday we said our final good-byes to my wonderful Grandpa. Although he went to be with the Lord almost 2 months ago, the sadness is still very fresh in all our hearts and minds. We know he is in a better place and we will see him again, but we all miss him so much! I am so thankful of all that he has taught me throughout my life, to love God, to work hard, to love what I do, to be humble, to be the best that I can be. I can't even begin to count how many times he told me how proud they are of me. That means the world to me.

I had the pleasure of scanning a bunch of photos for the incredible slide show my sister, Kendra, put together that was shown at the reception after this service. I thought I'd share some with you. I just LOVE looking at picture of my family when they were younger!


This is my grandpa in his Letterman's sweater! (My mom still has the sweater)
