CALIFORNIA TRIP

baby anden- so cute

me and nicole -downtown ventura

in front of my old school- san buenaventura mission

cute mom

So this past weekend me and my mom went to ventura for a quick 3 day weekend trip-without the kids!!!! so fun but of course i missed those kids so much, they were all we talked about... we got in late Thursday night and Friday we went to Santa Barbara with my mom's friend jean. we walked around, had a great lunch at an Argentine restaurant and bought lots of goodies for the kids. Later that night we went out with some of my mom's friends and my friends in downtown ventura. We ate good food and listened to the band. then Saturday we met up with my friends and saw heathers beautiful baby! I am hoping that they make a visit to see us in Texas this summer. then that afternoon we went out to lunch with Nicole and her parents and i had the best panini ever!!! then me and mom walked around downtown. That pretty much sums up our trip b/c I came home on Sunday, and got to see Jason and the kids! I love California but it is good to be home with the family.

Until next time.............

WE MET UP WITH JASON'S PARENTS AND COUSIN ZACH THE NIGHT BEFORE EASTER AT PRAIRIE HOUSE RESTAURANT AND IT WAS YUMMY!!!! THE KIDS SAW THE EASTER BUNNY AT THE PLANO MALL AND LOVED IT! GRIFFIN THINKS THE EASTER BUNNY IS FRIENDS WITH MICKEY SO I GET A BIG KICK OUT OF THAT.

Titi's haircut

waiting to eat with my new hair
i like my shaved head

side view

now you can see my pretty face

i am too cute

So as most of you know Titi's hair was getting kind of crazy lately so we decided to take her to get her hair cut. While we were there they told us that in Asain culture they shave the babies hair for their first hair cut b/c this way the hair grows back quicker, thicker and even. SO of course I decided to go for it, adn now she looks so cute- she looks like a little baby again :) Love it titi!

Until next time...........

WE HAD A FABULOUS TRIP! THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH MOM AND DAD FOR THE GREAT TRIP AND FABULOUS MEMORIES! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN TO GO TO DISNEYWORLD WITH THE FAMILY. WE FLEW TO MY MOM AND DAD'S HOUSE THEN THE NEXT DAY WE DROVE TO ORLANDO FOR OUR 5 DAY STAY AT THE GRAND FLORIDIAN. IT WAS SUCH A GREAT HOTEL B/C IT WAS IN THE MAGIC KINGDOM SO ALL WE HAD TO DO WAS HOP ON THE MONORAIL AND THE NEXT STOP WAS THE MAGIC KINGDOM. THEN WHEN WE WANTED TO COME BACK TO THE HOTEL WE JUST HAD TO HOP ON THE BOAT OR GET BACK ON THE MONORAIL WHICH CAME IN HANDY WHEN TITI NEEDED A NAP.

WE WERE THERE FOR 5 DAYS AND IT WENT BY SO FAST. WE WENT TO THE MAGIC KINGDOM AND THEN TO THE WILD ANIMAL KINGDOM ONE DAY TOO. WE HAD A BLAST. THE KIDS BOTH LOVED SEEING ALL THE CHARACTERS AND RIDING THE RIDES. THEY BOTH LOVED THE TEACUPS AND DUMBO AND GRIFFIN LOVED THE RACE CARS. WE ATE LOTS OF PIZZA AND HOT DOGS AND CANDY AND IT WAS WORTH IT.

AT THE ANIMAL KINGDOM WE TOOK A AFRICAN SAFARI TOUR AND SAW LOTS OF ANIMALS ROAMING AROUND. BOTH KIDDOS LOVED LOOKING AT ALL THE ANIMALS AND WILDLIFE. WE TOOK A TRAIN RIDE AND THEN WENT TO A PETTING ZOO AND GRIFFIN GOT TO BRUSH A BUNCH OF GOATS. IT WAS SO FUNNY TO SEE HIM CHASING THE GOATS AROUND THE STABLE WITH THE BRUSH IN HIS HAND. THE ANIMAL KINGDOM WAS LOTS OF FUN.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE MEMORIES FROM THE TRIP WAS OUR FIRST NIGHT THERE WE WERE ON OUR WAY TO THE PARK AND TAKING THE ELEVATOR UP TO THE MONORAIL AND THERE WAS A MAN IN THERE AND GRIFFIN LOOKED UP AT HIM AND SAID, "I'M GOING TO MICKEY'S HOUSE NOW". IT WAS SO CUTE!!!!!

WE HAD A GREAT TRIP AND CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK!

THANKS MOM AND DAD....
