Aloha!

My mom and I went to California last week to help out with Stacy's kids so that she and Chris could getaway for a few days. While we were there, Lauren (my cousin) had her 5th birthday party and man can she throw a party! It was a Hawaiian themed party. We found the cutest outfit for Avery, she loved the grass skirt the best. It was a lot of fun. Avery decided to make walking "official" literally days before we got there, so it was fun to see her running with the other little ones.

Avery and Jaime in their matching grass skirts.
Happy birthday Lauren! We miss you all ready!

It seemed like I took a million pictures of the girls playing while we were there, and this one is by far the best! We stuck them in the truck just for a picture and Avery grabbed onto the steering wheel right away and Leah stood up and started waving her sippy around! Stace, I think we have trouble.

Den took Cam and I to an Angels game the last night we were there. He's living in CA now and going to school in Long Beach. It was probably the most fun I have had at a baseball game that I can remember! Probably because we won! Believe it or not, in all the games that I have been to in my life - I cannot remember a game that I have been to where our team has won! Cam and I got some shirts super cheap and we had awesome seats, one of the home runs landed right in the stands about 20 feet from us.

She looks precious! Hey Sid's last comment on my blog was hilarious and I think I accidentally erased it! Tell him to type it again!

You've had a blog forever and have it down to a science!!! WOW! It was nice to meet you and see Sid at the THS reunion. Maybe some day you can give me tips on creating a better blog with music and slideshows. Keep up the good work.
