What is a party without SMORES?

My sister Desiree--who by the way--has the same tissue type as me (we found this out when we were all tested to try and find a donor for my brother who had leukemia). She is my donor if something goes amiss with me.


Just a big THANKS for all the support from family and friends!! Ali is really loved.

Memorial Day

We started the day out with a photo shoot with Ali in her Baptismal dress. The pictures turned out great. I'm getting a shot of her printed on canvas to hang on our wall. Her Baptism is this Saturday!!!

After pictures I promised Ali she could use some of her Birthday money and buy another Webkinz. We went to the store and they were having a one day sale so I bought Chaz one too. Ali owns the Webkinz on the left-Henry, Starfire, Sammy and Sally. Chaz owns the one on the right-Hatcher. The kids are crazy about their Webkinz. With the Webkinz, after you purchase the animals, you can enter a unique code for each animal into the Webkinz program on the computer to activate the online Webkinz. Once activated, you can take care of the Webkinz in every aspect--food, exercise, health and etc.. The online Webkinz is where the fun is.

Next, a quick stop at Balboa Park. The trees are amazing so I just had to capture a picture.



Finally, a day at the Zoo. It was the perfect day for the zoo because it was cooler so all the animals were out. Every exhibit had active animals which is hard to find at the zoo on most warmer weather days. Afterwards the kids told me the funnest part of going to the zoo was the Tram ride (who cares about the animals).


To end the day, both kids are coughing and I think I'm going to keep Ali home from school again.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!!!

The other weekend we met up at LaJolla Shores beach with the Heals. Guess what I did? It was a lot of fun!!




The Birthday Parties are over........

For Chaz, we had a Buzz Lightyear party. I wanted to make a Buzz cake but it is rather complicated so I ended up making Alien cupcakes and Chaz absolutley loved them!!!





For Ali's birthday we had a Pony Party. Ali is really into horses and is going to a horseback riding camp this summer. I found a cute pony cake online and made it for her party. Her and her friends thought it was so cool!!!





ONLY 3 WEEKS LEFT.....



Many of you know that Sunshine, Jen and I are in a swimming class at Miramar college. We swim twice a week in the mornings from 6:30am to 7:30am. This is our second swimming class that we've taken together and I think we are technically in the advanced swimming class because this class has a lot more of the butterfly stroke in it. As you can see from the pictures, there is a certain amount of fashion in swimming. We especially enjoy the flower hair caps. Of course you can't see our sexy suits, go ahead and let your mind imagine-- how great our competitive swimming suits look :) Hopefully we will continue this in the fall and add a few more friends with us--the possibilities are endless.

I'VE BEEN TAGGED

This is a fun one--- Jen:

This is what you do:
1. Pick up the nearest book (at least 123 pages).
2. Turn to page 123.
3. Find the 5th sentence
4. Post the 5th sentence on your blog.
5. Tag 5 people.

This is from 100 Greatest Love Songs. I'm picking a song from this book to sing in my class. The 5th sentence is "hold me in your arms tonight." The song is Hero by Enrique Iglesias.

I tag Jessica, Maree, Tara, Emily and anyone else who hasn't been tagged.

All I can say is ---FUN!!!!


I thought these pictures were very representative of my kids. I love the trampoline for my family. My kids are always outside jumping on it. They've made up all sorts of crazy games and have such a great time on it.
