The Day After Crew!

There is so much pressure to travel from place to place on Thanksgiving DAY and Christmas DAY and all the rest of the annual holidays! The logical family members understand this...and the only reasonable thing to do is Celebrate the Day after the actually holiday.

Therefore the day after crew was born!

The day after Thanksgiving we all got together at Yiayias house in Woodland Hills and ate Chinese Food and Dirt Cups. Andrew and Yiayia Eleni had an especially good time with the worms!

All the kids (and the grown ups) had a great time!

Thank you Moran Family for staying in town and we missed you Lizi, Savanna & Wyatt!

Sophia turns Two

Sophia turned two years old on November 29th.
She is such a happy and pretty little girl!

She loved her HUGE doughnut that her daddy brought her! It was enormous!

Daddy and Sammy brought Sophia flowers for her birthday too! What a lucky girl!

Later, family came over some cake, ice cream and presents!

Bicycle, Tricycle, Rocking Horse, Clothes, Books, Toys! This is a very lucky little two year old princess of a girl! We love you Sophia!

Mr. & Mrs. Meyer

Phil and Kelly had such a beautiful wedding! Sam was the best man, Sammy was a ring bearor, and Sophia was the flower girl! We had a great weekend with lots of awesome memories!

Thirtysomething

My birthday dinner!!!! Health, family and friends are all that I could wish for!!!!

On October 10th we celebrated Daddy's 34th Birthday! Unfortunately, he had to work that day so we packed up and went to the FD! Erika & Jerad came along to help celebrate too! It was a nice time and I hope that Daddy knows how much we love and appreciate all that he does to make our family stronger! Happy Birthday again honey! I love you!

Our trip to the FD is never complete with a little dry eraser board action and role playing too! I love you kids so much!

WOW. I so badly wish that I could update this blog on a daily or weekly (or even monthly) basis. Let's lets face it...been kind of busy lately!!! I am going to try to catch up with everything that has been going on in our crazy and fun life!!!

Camping in Malibu - September

We had a GREAT summer! In September we went camping in Malibu with family and freinds. We had a great time and can't wait to go camping again!





The kids loved being so close to the water! We played "frogger" accross PCH to get to the water and the kids played for hours!

They love their Daddy!

Burns Family: you guys are awesome & Marchbanks Family: we love you guys!

Let's go again!

Discovery

Today we went to the Discovery Science Museum in Santa Ana. (www.discoverycube.org). Sammy and Sophia both had a great time exploring all that there is to do there. Let's not forget to mention that we all got to spend some much needed family time together with Daddy! Sammy especially loved the rock climbing wall. He was so excited when he made it to the end and shouted "I did it Mama!" Sophie couldn't get enough of the dinosaurs...or as she refers to them "dinos." She was running around faster than we could chase her! Sophia was also surprised to see the real Smokey the Bear. Unlike her older brother, she walked right up to him, struck a pose, and waited for Mama to take her picture! Too Cute! Sammy wanted nothing to do with "that bear" as he put it...although he was nice enough to give Smokey a quick high-five. We all had a great day! We will miss you Dada over the next two days while you are at the FD! XOXO
