Monday, February 7, 2011 Like our previous day at Newport Beach, Monday dawned with the promise of beautiful weather. I think the high was supposed to be 77 degrees, and we were really looking forward to fun in the sun at Disneyland. However, before we could get out the door, we had a few things …

Vacation Day 1: Newport Beach
I usually don’t read anyone’s travelogues detailing what happened on their family vacation, so I don’t expect you to either. Skim through, look at pictures, watch the video, and I will understand. I’m writing this more for my own memory than for anyone else. Sunday, February 6, 2011 We woke up early in St. George …
Getting left behind
Poor little Ellie, I feel bad for her. But, she’s brought this upon herself. You see, Ellie doesn’t travel well. She’s a horrible traveler, actually. And now, she will be left behind. The entire family is taking a much-needed vacation to Disneyland here in the near future. We’ve been planning this trip for more than …
Vericose Vein Procedures – not for the faint of heart
January 5, 2011 Back in November I decided I was gonna get the veins in my legs examined a little closer. I was beginning to experience more pain and pressure from them than I felt normal. Not to mention they weren’t the prettiest sight to behold either. I had one vein sticking out above my …

Brace Face!
Megan got her first round of braces yesterday. I always thought braces were something kids dreaded getting but not Megan. She couldn’t wait! She was so excited to finally get them on and especially excited to pick Valentine’s Day rubber band colors. Plus, it helped that they gave her a t-shirt (nothing like a walking …
Eeewww or cute or maybe both!
When we were celebrating Drew’s birthday Seth smeared some of the frosting on his cheek. He was holding Ellie and she looked up at his cheek and thought it looked tasty. As you can see she quite liked it. I think I might have done the same thing! 🙂
The Spock
Megan had to make an invention for the 3rd grade invention fair. She decided to invent the “Spock.” It is a combination of a sock and sponge. I always thought that would be a brilliant idea. She demonstrated it to her class by bringing a spray bottle to class and spraying the floor with cleanser …
Happy 3rd Birthday Drew Buddy!
Drew turned three yesterday. I decided I would take him to Build-a-bear so he could make his own bear. I think that the window of opportunity for boys to enjoy this is much smaller than girls so I thought it would be a good idea to get an early start. He is a little young …
Reviewing Twenty Ten
I did this same thing for 2008 and 2009, so it just wouldn’t be right if I forget about 2010. Here is my annual year-in-review post highlighting some of the best posts from this last year: January 2010: Not a whole lot of activity here on the blog because we were very busy packing up …
Christmas 2010
We had another wonderful Christmas. The festivities began at G’ma Jan and G’pa Mike’s house on Christmas Eve. We had our traditional foods and games. We had the nativity performed by the kids and believe it or not, it went pretty flawlessly considering how young some of the kids were. Later that night our family …
