LDBFF Kait!

When Corbin was in boot camp, one of his best buds he met was Cody.
Cody would let him borrow his laptop to Skype me ALL the time during SOI school!
We were so thankful for that.

Corbin would tell me about him and his girlfriend all the time.. he said his girlfriend was a lot like me and that we would make great friends. So, Kait and I became friends through Facebook and we haven't stopped talking ever since!! They are now engaged<3

She came to California for Cody's homecoming. He was deployed in Afghanistan for 7 months.

We are so glad he got back safely!!

I met Cody before but not Kait..It had almost been a year and we FINALLY met!!!

We were so excited to be hanging out!
I picked them up at their hotel on my way home from Newport, we went home, showed them around and decided to go to Chilies.

Cody told us some cool stories about his deployment and how it was like!

 After, we rented a movie and went back to our house to chill and watch a movie!

Took them home after. We were sad to say goodbye but we'll see them again soon :)

Here is the homecoming video Corbin recorded for them!!

Made me cry cause I know how long they've been waiting for that moment!!!

We are so happy for them!!

Chlo's photography haha

Kait and I were there for eachother from the start of our men in the Corps and I'm glad I was able to help her through their first deployment.

She is an amazing friend and I'm so glad we were able to finally meet!

I love you Kait!!!

Thank you for everything!

<3

Thank you Cody, for serving our country.

Corbins 25th Birthday!

(3/24)

Last year Corbin was in Virginia for MOS School during his and Chlo's birthday, so this year we were all so greatful to be together to celebrate!
He wanted a nice relaxing day with his girls. That's all. No presents nothing.. Isn't he sweet?
Buuut I got him some things anyways :)

[Cool fact about last year: It was Corbins and my "Golden Year".. He turned 24 on the 24th and I turned 19 on the 19th. Whatever golden year is supposed to mean? But to us.. It really was GOLDEN. We got married and Chloee became one of my own. We started our wonderful life out here in Cali together :) My favorite year yet!!]

Anywho..

When he fell asleep Friday night, I decorated and decked out the kitchen in blue- his favorite color.

When he woke up, he had no idea I decorated and he loved it.

He started opening the gifts!

Mmm. I love him.

Chlo is just so cute and happy for daddy.

Hahaha this pic ended up being hilarious!!! Silly babe. Cool new watch ;)

Wuhooo!

Chlo and Zuzu

Yeah just woke up..

I love you honey!!

All his cool stuff

Plus clothes from his parents and running shoes from my parents!

 

Made some pancakes!!

We all relaxed and enjoyed eachother for a while before heading to the mall to get the right size hat!

Corbin had Chipotle, I had subway and Chloee could not waaaait to have a pretzel from the mall lol!

Came back and I started making the cake :)

A little help with my handy helper!..

How CUTE is she?!

Had some fun with the batter..

WHAM!.. His Utah Jazz cake :)

And a 25 for his 25th birthday!

Singing to him...

                                                                                                                       

The moment Chloee has been waiting for since her birthday...

She would not stop talking about it!

The new tradition..

How fun. I love birthdays. I wanna make sure I spoil them on their birthday because first of all, they deserve it. Every bit of it. It's their day!! And second.. if they were never born.. what would I do without them!! So I love birthdays :)

[Does that mean I'm supposed to spoil the parents?! ;)]

Shout out to mCat and Daddy Catmull for making Corbin happen!! LOL

(Excuse my cheesey-ness)

Note to babe:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETHEART <3

You are my world.

 I find myself falling more in love with you every day.

I can't wait till June...

I love knowing that we'll grow old together.

I hope when the day comes that we can die together like on The Notebook...LOL

Seriously though :)

I hope you had a delightful birthday!

XOXO

Roses are red,

I love you past infinity,

I'll never take back my, "I DO"

 

 

Chloee's 5th birthday!

This pic right here just shows you how much fun we had on her birthday!!!

~~~~~~

I could not wait for Chloee's birthday! (Well, I could.. she's growing so fast) I just wanted to spoil her all that I could!!

Corbin missed her birthday last year being in MOS school in Virginia, and he had a hard time with it.. so it was nice to have us all together AS A FAMILY and even with the mother/father in love, brotha L and sis K!

Corbin and I decided we'd get her a pet for her birthday. A hamster. My sister had a bunch when we were younger and I thought Chlo would love one of her own! I went to a few pet stores and found the perfect one. Being so cute like that.. she was just asking to get bought!!

 Got a pink cage that I thought Chlo would love.

The night before her birthday I decked out the kitchen in hello kitty party decor, streamers and presents!

GOOD MORNING BIRTHDAY GIRL!!

When she woke up, she was tired and surprised but loved it!

Corbin was told he didn't have to go into work until 10 a.m. but they ended up calling him to go in early. Boo.

 The rest of us all got ready and went out to Chlo's lunch choice, Subway. Took some to Corbin. Went to the store to get cake stuff then home. Corbin was able to come home around 3! Earlier than usuall!

Kayla got here not too long after and we started the partay! Chlo opened all her presents!

Didn't get pics cause I was busy watching!

She loved playing with them after :)

Corbin was able to go out behind our house and play ball with his dad and brother. Nice bonding time for them!

While I decorated Chloee's cake! Daddy Catmull taught me some cool tricks! I now love making cakes and can't wait to make Corbins :)

Chlo couldn't decide on a hello kitty cake or a dinosaur cake so.. I worked my magic. Tadaa!

We went out to eat yet again at Chipotle! It use to be my favorite, and still is Corbins but I'm a little burnt out haha! Still yummy though :)

Sis was just... winking ;)

Went home, sang to Chlo as we gave her the cake, it took her about 10 blows to blow out all 5 candles.. she probley spit in it but who cares right?! Lol!

Chlo piced Oreo mint ice cream. It was pretty good.

Didn't know the night would get even better!!

While eating the cake.. Corbin and Chloee started having a little bit of a cake fight, which turned into this..

Here it is, the grand finale, the moments I live for <3

Isn't that the best? It is now Corbins new tradition he will continue!

And I love it! Even if it means lots of clean up and cake everywhere!

We all just kicked back and watched How to train a dragon, snuggled with Chlo and enjoyed the last hours of her birthday.

I know Chloee had a great birthday, she definitely deserved it.

I myself had a blast!

I know her mommy is so happy knowing Chloee is growing into a wonderful big happy 5 year old! As am I :)

I couldn't be more honored to be mommy numba 2. I love everything about her. I love every minute with her. She is my little love bug. I just love her to the moon and back.

I love you Chloee Belle!!
Happy 5th Birthday sweetie
