Memorial Day

On Sunday we had all sorts of friends over for Memorial Day. The Boyces, Carters, Cooks, Hofmans, Johnsons, Scotts and Auntie Joanne (that would be 14 kids total!) The party started with a deluge...

Aunt JoJo Blog

As the Pasta's are between camera's, you might want to check out Joanne's Blog for pictures of this weekend. See link on right hand side of this page.

A new camera will be bought tonight and hopefully delivered by this weekend.

Today Sean is spending his first night in his "bed," not his "crib." The side of the crib was taken down this evening and he seemed interested in the idea. He fell right asleep - we shall see how the night goes!

Thanks Wheatleys!

Our great travelmates, the Wheatleys, looked through their pictures and uploaded some for us to use. Thanks so much!

Here are a few photos of the San Diego trip.

Sean's first "roller coaster". He's not too sure about this.

Look closely. Can you see the baby pelican?

Who knew Land Cruisers were great napping spots?

San Diego Harbor, Double Decker bus tour and La Jolla

The double decker bus tour was a great way to see many parts of the city.

Adios Cancun, Hello San Diego!

We had planned a relaxing trip to Cancun for last week with our good friends, the Wheatleys. All was set to sit on the beach, play in the sand and sip umbrella drinks. Then, the swine flu hit. After several conference calls and thoughts of being stuck in Mexico with 3 small children, we decided to bail on Cancun and head to San Diego instead. We fortunately found a comparable price for the flight, hotel and car and off we went.

We enjoyed LegoLand, the San Diego Zoo, the USS Midway, Coronado, Wild Animal Park, a harbor cruise, double decker bus tour, La Jolla and lots of great times with our friends. The kids were all troopers and had a great time at the sites as well as playing with each other.

Unfortunately, we don't have pictures because I (Barbara) apparently left the camera in the DFW airport. I've made several calls, but to no avail. If you happen to be around gate B37 or 38 at DFW, check and see if you notice a lumix camera. Anyway, things could have been worse. Everyone be sure and put your name on your camera right now. ;)

Thanks for checking in...
