Life lately in photos...

So I promised I'd do more "Life lately" posts...And here I am! After what, 2 months? Yep, Either I've been really busy OR lazy. It couldn't possibly be the latter. Oh wait, yes it could I suppose. ;) 
Yogurt! There's nothing (and I mean it when I say NOTHING) I like to eat for breakfast then a huge bowl of cold yogurt. It's simply delicious. My personal fave is to add frozen strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries, mixed in with a big glop of honey for sweetness. Trust me. It's glorious.


Flowers! I absolutely love watching all the flowers bloom after a long, cold, boring, dreary winter.

                                    Trails! Went on a long, refreshing walk the other day.
     DIY manicures.
     Windy day, much? ;)
You can never ever forget a footsie photo! ;) just kidding..you can.

MEET MY: Sister Victoria



So I decided. It's a 'bout time I did a "Meet my"! So here today is my sweet, quiet, long haired, blue eyed, sister. :))

Victoria was born on September 12th 2002. I actually remember a bit of when she was born, I would've been 4 years old, nearly 5 because our birthdays are so close together. I remember small tidbits  like my mom asking me what I wanted to name her. (Of course, I had a 4 year olds answer!) I thought that the PERFECT name would be "Aunt Nan." The "Aunt" included. My suggestion was not meant to be, my mother gently explained we already had a "Aunt Nan". Oh well. I tried! ;)

So instead we named our small new bundle Victoria Ashley.

You've probably all heard me say "Toria"  or "Cha cha" referring to Victoria, which are two nicknames that have stuck over the years.

The first is quite simple actually. The littles at that time (now thinking back, that would've been me and my brother Nicholas!) couldn't pronounce such a long name, so in our attempt to say her name it always came out "Toria." and I rarely call her anything else these days!

The second is probably pretty embarrassing for her, But I'm pretty sure she doesn't check my blog. So I'm safe there!

So you know those T.P Commercials on t.v with the big bears? Yeah..well..It has something to do with that. ;)

As I remember it, Victoria danced to a theme song to those commercials as a toddler, And a few of the lyrics where "Cha cha chaa!!" You can figure out the rest. Her second Nickname was born. And no, we don't use it TOO often, :D For her sake.

So now that you know a little more about my little sister, I shall say goodbye! THANKS for reading, I really appreciate it!!!! You guys mean a lot to me. :)

Much love,

Abbey Noelle
