A Week & a Day Ago!

A week ago plus one day we were just finishing our day at Disneyland and had a fantastic time. I wanted to get this post done yesterday, but that is a whole other post in and of itself. When we went to Disney, we thought the kids would last until the late afternoon, but they went way longer. To be honest, I could have spent another few hours there myself. It was so much fun and we were able to spend our day with cousins Cailin, Makena, Lisa and Yolanda. What a blessing that was! Big G is still talking about the Pirates of the Caribbean. It was so fun to see the expressions on their faces - just had to share some of our memories with you. I'll post more on our trip very soon. Until then, here is a little sneak peak.

Happy Heart Day!

Happy Valentine's Day from our house to yours. We pray the love of other and that of the Lord's fills your hearts and spirits today and always. With love and joy!

And Now He is 4!

On Sunday Feb. 8th we celebrated Big G's 4th year of life. I stand in awe of our little boy. I can say little because to mommy, he will always be my little baby boy. He is far from a baby though, he started Preschool this year and is completely potty trained as of this past summer. Yea!!! He still loves to dance and still loves music. He plays the drums and guitar (electric or acoustic) everyday. That has never changed. Big G loves his friends and wants have a sleep over just so he can spend more time playing. He is a leader, but needs lots of guidance from God, mom and dad. He loves to swim and play outside. He longs for summer everyday. He is truly a So. Cal boy at heart. He loves animals - especially sharks, dinos and underwater life. He likes action heros and plays them daily. I never know if Spiderman or a Power Ranger will show up in our living room. Today it's Spiderman. We love our boy and our amazed at the gift we were given in him. We celebrate his life and all the he is. Love you Gooby Boy!

Everyone loves a good book!!!

The other day I was cruising the house doing my thing and when I turned the corner I caught Little G in the reading corner. She has taken to books these past few months. I guess she figures if she can't go outside and play, she might as well take up reading. She loves turning the pages and if I listen real hard, I do believe I can hear her muttering sounds as if she is really reading. I was in awe at her contentment to just sit there. Here is our little scholar. The cute part is she saw me snapping pictures and the last picture is her running to the camera yelling, "Cheeeeeeessssse!"

The Best Dollar I Ever Spent

A couple of weeks ago I was at Target looking through the $ bins - of course, and ran across these dress up shoes for Little G. WELL... she LOVES her little pink shoes. She wears them all the time and loves dressing up with them. She dances in them and tries to wear them when we go out. Little cold for that, but soon I'm sure she'll be cruising the neighborhood with her little pink sandals.

And they're off

WOW, I have no idea why I have been so negligent on my posts. I guess we have been too busy and fighting too many little bugs that throw me off track. We did although do some fun stuff in Jan. Like sledding. The G's just loved the thrill of flying down the hill at top speed! I have to admit, I did too. Getting cold is not my favorite, but when it involves fun, it's much better. Well, here are some hightlights
