We're Expecting something fun!

Come September our little family will have a new addition!  We are very excited and can't wait!

Happy Birthday Brighton!!!

WOW!!  My baby girl is 12. I can't believe it! She is the most amazing young woman, I am so blessed to have her in my life.  12 years ago tonight, I remember sitting alone with B in my hospital room. Looking at my tiny (5 lbs) little girl I knew that we would be doing this on our own and that I could take care of her by myself. 6 weeks later we were on our own.  With the help and support of some awesome people I raised her alone till she was 8.  We had so many special times just the two of us. Driving to San Diego, sitting at the Sushi bar at Mizumi 2x a week,  swimming everyday every summer, soccer, many apartments, Cricket, sleeping with me whenever she could, and taking care of each other.  Brighton made me the woman I am today and I am so proud.  Brighton is kind, loving, wickedly funny, smart, witty, a little shy, independent, and a fabulous example to me and her brother and sister.  They worship her and she is so kind and sweet to them.  Happy Birthday B!!!  We love you so much.

Christmas....

Christmas was so wonderful this year.  Even without a job we were sooo blessed! 

BOSTON is 3!!!!!

Happy Birthday to the sweetest little man!  Boston is such joy to our family.  He is always looking out for his little sister and can't wait to go to school with his big sister ("Cause she needs me to Mom").  Today he got a card for his birthday in the mail and when he opened it some money fell out on to his lap. The look of pure glee come over his cute face and he said so excitedly "I want to put this in our vacation fund!".  He can't wait for all of us to go to Disneyland and the beach.  He is so kind and always wants to take care of everyone else first.  We love him so much and are so blessed to have him in our family!  Happy Birthday Bos-Man!!!

Star Wars In Concert!!!!

For Dean's early birthday present we went to Star Wars In Concert last week. Anthony Daniels, who plays C3-PO, was the host and intro'd every piece of music. He really was delightful, and very entertaining. The symphony and choir were amazing. There were explosions on the front row and when the fire balls would erupt, you would feel the heat before you saw it. And the movie screen that they played clips on was impressive and massive.

The greatest thing there was seeing all of the little kids running around dressed up, and kinda sad seeing all the adults running around dressed up. All in all a great night with awesome music. Posted by Dean

These are some of the pics of the props from the movies:
