Auntie Kissy & Uncle Sal ROCK!

It was so wonderful seeing Auntie Kissy & Uncle Sal while we were in California. They both really dove in and got to some serious playing with Dane. Auntie Kissy is now an expert in all things firefighter and I'm pretty sure that it was Uncle Sal who taught Dane the art of wrestling! It was a blast seeing them so much while we were visiting and we're so sad that we don't live closer, but we have some great photos to look back on.

We love you!!!

Oh yes, it's ladies night!

As much as I adore these sweet faces....



I was in dire need of a night away with my favorite ladies!!! So I got all gussied up...

and practically ran out to Mary's car before Grandma & Grandpa could change their minds! We found a great local Mexican restaurant and over indulged on chips & guacamole and of course, margaritas on the rocks with salt!! (Oh, I miss all the Mexican restaurants in California!)


We then landed at this dive bar...
Where we did just what the sign says....cocktails & dancing! (Thank you Michael Jackson - PYT!)

And we also dominated the pool table (the boys waiting for the table were not happy about it one bit, but we didn't really care!)


I had a blast and am still relishing in the fun we had.

A big huge thank you to these two wonderful people for spending the night with the kiddos so I could got get some much needed girly time!

Lunch with my ladies!

Mary hosted a wonderful lunch today with some of my old teaching buddies.
It was so great to catch up with old friends. These are the kind of friends that make you feel like no time has passed even though we may not find the time to talk as much as I'd like to these days.



I'm already looking forward to our next visit.
Maybe I can convince them all to travel to Alaska? :)

Yucka Mucka!

You may remember a few posts back I mentioned Jaeger had a visit to urgent care and was diagnosed with an ear infection. Well, the antibiotics he was on must have upset his tummy and he wound up with one of those poopies that sends you straight to the bath! Since Dane was eating in the kitchen, I decided to just plop Jaeger in the sink and hose him down. He LOVED it! Thankfully, I had my camera right there to capture it.

Couldn't you just eat him up?

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ICE SCREAM!

I thought ice cream trucks were a thing of the past, but one came strolling along singing a happy tune while we are this great park in Laguna Woods. Dane loved being able to choose his very own ice cream treat. You can see about half the action here....



*Sorry for the rather strange cut off video. We thought we were actually just taking a picture, but wound up with the video instead.


Here are some more pics from this great park near my mom's house.

Happy boy on the swing!

Auntie Kissy and Dane riding the dino.

This picture cracks me up. I can't even remember why Auntie Kissy was giving me the sad face, but I thought it was too funny not to include.

I wanted to get in on the fun too!

Ups and Downs!

Our day started out at Urgent Care. :( Jaeger Ray wound up with yet another ear infection (he seems to be following in his brother's footsteps.)

Here he is in the doctor's office and he still looks happy. I, on the other hand, look like I've been through the wringer - we haven't slept all that much on this trip and the bags under my eyes are really showing it. ARGH!)

Here's the up part of my day though.

And the up part of Dane's day.

Dane went poopie in the potty and earned a chocolate donut! YIPEE!
