Say Cheese!


Say Cheese!

This girl is making us grey! Let me explain...This morning I'm at work and I get a phone call from Chris. He asks me if genetian violet is poisonous because Mikaela found it, opened it up and has it all over herself. She has a purpke tongue, mouth and fingers. I told him no but she was goin gto be stained"violet" for a few days. He responded "she's in the bath right now. I might put the rest of the genetian violet and turn her purple" ... maybe that'll teach her a lesson. We're just glad she didn't get it all over the new carpet. Yikes!

FYI, genetian violet is a homeopathic cure for thrush. It works great but it stains you purple (violet).

Weekend get away





Chris and I finally took a weekend off from our parental duties. My wonderful mom came to our house while Chris and I enjoyed a nice hotel a few miles away in Anaheim. We stayed at Disney's paradise pier. Since we have Disneyland annual passports we got to go to Disneyland by ourselves and enjoy a "magical morning." We got into Disneyland 1 hour before regular opening hours. We took advantage and rode Space Mountain 2 times with less than 10 minute waiting times. It was great.
We needed this get-away for a long time.
We ate at the FABULOUS Napa Rose at the Grand Disney Hotel. OMGoodness it was delicious! We had delicious appetizers and the salad I had was to die for. Full of crunchy goodness. oh and I could go on about the soup. It was a lentil base with bacon and shrimp. mmmmm, just thinking about it makes my mouth water. Chris had the most delicious pork chop ever. Our compliments to the chefs. All I can say if you have a few dollars to spare and want to eat at a great restaurant you gotta eat here. We were dressed to the nines and we ate like pigs, (civilized oinkers at least). If I was shameless I would have licked the plate clean, sadly, I had to hold back.

oh ya, and we went to a MX super cross event too. Amazingly, I had fun at that too. Chris was happy cheek to cheek. Happy husband, happy wife. ;-) Happy wife, happy life.

Tyler turns 7 yrs old

Happy Birthday Tyler!


Tyler turned 7yrs old. I'm still in awe at this young boy. He is smart, handsome, courteous and was happy hanging out with just the family at Chuck e cheese. We stopped doing parties every year for the kids. This year was Tyler's "off" year but we still do a dinner of his choice. He choose Chuck e Cheese. All the kids were happy and it wasn't crowded so parents were happy too. Happy birthday kiddo. and MANY, MANY more!

Being silly with frosting from his cake.



Tyler is into making silly faces at the camera. Here he is holding his fighter jet kite we got him. Goofy kid. He gets it from his dad.
