So we took the kids to the mountains a few weeks ago and I never posted any photos, so here they are. They had a great time. It was a beautiful day and the kids had a blast. We went to Lake Arrowhead, where we played in the snow, walked the village, ate lunch, had desert, then went back down the hill and found another little area of snow to play in. It was a great famliy day.
That was actually the end of Feb. Then I was suppose to meet the Orange High Girls for brunch. I was sick as a dog. Come to find out, I had walking pneumonia. That put me out of work for a week. They sent me for testing and found a granuloma on my chest xray so are comparing my old chest x-rays to see if it was there before and if it's gotten any bigger. I will find out later this week, what the plan is.
THen we did a little remodel of Allyson's room. She had one whole wall of closets. (A girls dream), but wasted space for her, so Mike decided to take down one closet door, build a little wall and make a desk. Mike used an old piece of granite from a job he had and put up some cabinets and it's great. She loves it and now can do all her homework there.
Then was our 6 year wedding anniversary on March 16th. I can't believe how quickly time flys. We celebrated by taking a family trip to Disneyland. We have been trying to do this since December, but it was either raining, or someone was sick so we couldn't go. We had a blast. Allyson has been 1 time before with my parents right before she turned 2, but this was the first time going as a famliy. The last time I had been was in high school, so a lot has changed. It was a lot of fun and the kids were great.
Then it was St. Patricks day. The kids wore green and we had another classroom party at Allyson's school although I didn't take any pictures this time. All the food the kids ate was green. Grapes, broccoli, celery, green milk, green macarroni and cheese, oh and hot dogs. (they were the only things that weren't green. Then they ate Lime popsicles for dessert. IT was a lot of fun. I got there early and helped the kids in Allyson's class do their pot of gold art project and make rainbow toast. It was very cool they let the kids use food coloring with paint brushes and paint on pieces of bread then they toast them and eat them. Very cool idea.
Other then that, we took Allyson to her first big girl birthday party for one of the girls in her class. It was at Hullabaloos. It's an indoor place where they have a toddler area, karaoke, rock wall, some video games for the older kids, blow up bouncy, slide with an obstacle course and a play area tree house type of thing. Then they have a seperate area where we went in and it was set up for lunch, cake and presents. She had a great time and it's a pretty good idea, but a little expensive. Then Mike and I had a 30th birthday party to attend last Sat. night. We had a great time and were out late, but I still made it to work the next day.
Nothing else new going on. Allyson got new shoes from Grandpa. Brandon loves to brush his teeth (all the time) and all else is well. Upcoming events in the next month include. 2 Baby showers this weekend, Trip to the river for Easter. Mike's birthday, Jen's baby shower and then another party. Busy times, but it's always so much fun.
