Just teasing you...

..(Cassie, Tina, Jenn, Kris....) until I get the one up that's REALLY good.

I was too busy dancing and rocking out to the music to get the entire song. This is one of my new favorites. So below is his music video for this song. LOVE IT!!!

Missing our Buggy

We got to talk with Lizzie yesterday. She's getting to be such a big girl too. And she was in such a sassy mood. So I thought I'd post a few photos from her trip out here. We LOVE going to Kyoto Steakhouse for dinner.

Made a smiley face just for Lizzie


Just watching the guy cooking her dinner and spinning eggs.


The Volcano


And Lizzie's reaction ~ the heat was pretty strong.

And tradition has to to continue to stuff ourselves and have ice cream at Mallards.

Lizzie helping Amber eat hers


Helping Daddy eat his


And finishing off Ganma's


FINALLY she's full :D


And asking Daddy if she got the the stuff off her face.

We Miss You Lizzie!!!!

Ever See $86 Worth of Chocolate?

We're talking "high end" chocolate, not your normal, everyday, run of the mill Hershey's. Seven bars and 2 packages of chocolate covered marshmallows (made in-house). And yes, we do still have some of those bars left to nibble on.

On a trip to Seattle back in January we stopped at a place called Chocolopolis!! It's AMAZING!! It's on Queen Anne Hill in downtown Seattle. Stop by if you get the chance and get one of their yummy hot chocolate or drinking chocolates. You'll LOVE it!

Did you know that cacao grows in so many regions? Rob did but I didn't.

And another shot we snapped on the way down. Just too sweet!

Musical Weekend

I can handle weekends like this every weekend!!!

Friday ~ Bon Jovi concert in Seattle.
For Christmas we bought tickets for all of us.


Nose-bleed section, behind the stage but oh, SO fun!!!



This was the kids first "real" concert.

Saturday ~ A Jazz concert at Lairmont manor

Can't beat a weekend FULL of music!!!

Vacation anyone?

I wish!!!! I told Rob just last night that Disneyland is sounding like a good idea right about now. Except we are having better weather here than down in So. Cal. But just to get away and run around Disneyland for a few days would just be heavenly. But unfortunately, too many commitments :(

But I did run across this picture today on the Disney Parks Blog (yes! It's true!!). This picture just took my breath away.

A Foggy Morning on the Rivers of America

I just LOVE the little details of Disneyland. Here are some of my favorite details that I've snapped from previous trips.






And this is one of my favorites!! I played with it a bit in a Photoshop class I took.

And my other all time favorite!

So Sorry!!!

Life is taking over blogging :D Go figure!!! So we will catch you up on things but first I need to give this boy

his own blog entry.

Isn't he just the cutest thing?!?!

David turned 13!!!!! As of January 29th it's official ~ our baby is a teenager. Complete with his voice changing and the dark hair coming in above his upper lip. It's not quite time to start shaving yet, but I'm sure it's not too far off. Makes me sad (and feeling older). But it's still one of those birthday's that you can still buy fun "boy kid toys".



So glad he still LOVES to play Legos


Are you sensing a Star Wars and Star Trek theme here?

He's always loved Star Trek and Star Wars



And what is a birthday without getting something Nerf to be able to torture your sisters?

Now to explain David's cake. He has always LOVED slug bugs. So when I saw these at the store I just knew I had to put them on his cake even though it was a tad child-like.

He LOVED it!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID!!
Hope that wish comes true!
