St Patty's and Birthdays!

We spent St. Patty's day in Ventura celebrating Doc's, Van's 5th and Audrey's 3rd birthday's!  We had so much fun catching up, eating, opening presents and eating cake and Aunt MaryK's wonderful cheesecake.  Tay enjoyed a his first bites of corned beef and cabbage and hanging out with all the kids.  Check out his Uggs in the last pic, my new fav's!!!


Ashley's Bridal Shower

It's Wedding season for Ashley!  Last weekend I helped throw her "International" themed shower in Huntington Beach.  We had great food, fun decorations and hilarious games.  I can't wait for all the events coming up celebrating Mike and Ash!!!

Mom's 70th Birthday Party

Here are the photos from my mom’s party back in January! The theme was "70 years in a Flash" and we had ton's of black and white pictures everywhere chronicling mom's life.  Aunt MaryK blew us all away again with the cake, that woman is amazing!!!  We had a really fun party and it was so much fun seeing everyone together!



We also celebrated Ryle's 4th birthday and as you can see he loved his cake that his mom made for him!
In the bottom corner is the picture of the "70 years of Memories" I did for mom, Becky at RCE made the tag and beautiful envelopes.  It was so fun seeing mom open them and read the fun memories people sent to her!

Teegan's 4th Dino Party!

Sunday Tay and I met up with all the Gals and the kids at Build a Bear to celebrate Teeg's 4th birthday! Tay picked a orange dinosaur and the kids all helped name him "Roar" the Dinosaur. It was such a great party, they made their animals, then the entire store sang happy birthday to Teegs and Teren made yummy cupcakes for us all. Tay was very upset that he didn't get to eat 2, he conked out for 3 hours when we got home - now that was a good party! Thanks so much Teren, we love you and your boys!

It's Summer RIGHT?!?!

Its sure felt like it this weekend and we had a BLAST! Friday nite we went to the Fullerton Food Trucks with Drake and Tim and ate WAY too much, then watched some comedy at our place. Saturday Gus worked and then we headed off to Disneyland for our 2nd year as pass holders! We watched the parade curbside and Tay got a high 5 from some dancers, he loved that!  We sat next to the cutest twin girls and he made fast friends with them of course, our little ladies man.  Then as usual we went on rides and then dragged our tired feet home.


Sunday after church we headed to Huntington Beach to meet up with Trail and Sherry and had a great day on the sand! They live about 1 block from the beach so we walked there, the boys took Tay in the water and it despite the 80 degree weather it was freezing in the water.  The beach had this weird shore where they walked in really deep then back up again to a low tide the further they went out.  The pic below has Gus holding Tay before walking up and Trail up, it was strange.  Other than cold water Tay had a great time and only tried to eat the sand 1 time. Tears followed and after that debacle he decided he needed to relocate all the sand from 1 side of the towel to the other and kept himself busy for about 30 minutes walking back and forth organizing the beach. We had a late lunch at Zimzala (which was DELISH!!!) and then headed home.  Can't wait for many more weekends like this!
