On my FREE TIME I've been making BABY HEADBANDS...Ok I'll be honest with ya...I don't have FREE TIME, I just like staying up late...After a long days of work this is how I WIND DOWN...I didn't have a real baby to model with so I used this doll...So if you know anybody who might be interested in buying some, just let me know...

Happy Birtday...

Viviana Nicole Hernandez...That's her name but she doesn't like the name so she goes by Vivi...I'm sure when she gets older she'll realize that it's AN HONOUR to be named after her Great Great Grandma Viviana...Well this Sunday Viviana turns 15 so we're making her a BIRTHDAY DINNER...Take a look at the pictures that follow and see what I've been doing to get ready...

Doesn't this look like fun...After making the FIRST BATCH I decided I'd let ya in on HOW MANY TORTILLAS I'LL BE MAKING...

Here's one cooking...It's probably the ONE I ate...You can't make tortillas and not eat ONE with BUTTER...

This stack is only like the 1st dozen I made...Let me just say I have like 9 more stacks to go...I'm thinking I should of just gone with BREAD but how good is BRISKET, BEANS, AND HOT SAUCE W/OUT TORTILLA...

Last one for the day...Let's see how I did...

Let me just say that after this week I don't think I'll be making many tortillas for a couple of weeks...YEA RIGHT...My kids think they have to have TORTILLA with EVERYTHING...Even with Hamburger Helper...lol...

Well I've taken a little break so I'm off to work on something else for Saturday...I hope to see ya there she's invited everyone that means something to her...AND I hope I didn't make anybody tooo hungry...

Aliya

Here's our April Fools Baby...Miss Aliya...Just 2wks old...I finally saw her after a week...Can't wait to make her hair bows...

April Fool's...

Well we have a new baby...Aliya...well....WE don't but our PASTOR'S do but it's just like if WE did...she's going to be SPOILED...but poor baby she's got 3 brothers at home waiting on her so she's going to have to be a tough one but I guess she will be since she came in weighing 7lb. 5 oz. I can't wait to see her but I guess I'll have to wait till I get back from our STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL trip...

Well let me just say I had a wonderful weekend after getting the worst news of our lives on Tuesday...After 12 years of working, Val was layed off...BUT that's o.k. We are trusting in God to give him a new job and even maybe fulfill a dream he's always wanted to do...OPEN UP HIS OWN BUSINESS...We are praying and asking God to have his WILL in our lives...I think sometimes God let's things happen to us to see how much we trust him and sometimes even to bring us closer to him...and each other...so we are waiting to see what the future has for us...Keep us in PRAYER...
