The Snow

I thought we had lost our chance to play in the snow this season for sure. Thank you GOD for that last storm that brought us more beautiful snow to play in :) We try to go at least once a year. This time, we just found a nice fluffy spot off the side of the road about 5 minutes before Idyllwild. It was so nice to get away for the day and have some quality family time. We needed it :) After the snow, we went into town and played in the toy shop, then went to Jo An's cafe for dinner. All in all it was a fabulous day!

Passed some run away donkeys on the way home

Attempting to re-create the raising of the flag at Iwo Jima .....hahaha

First sign of spring

The sacrifice a mother makes.....my fingers were numb! haha

Next time, we'll bring flavored syrup and make homemade snow cones.....

Fun with Friends!

I can not even begin to explain how ecstatic I am that my close friends from high school are FINALLY starting to have kids!! Well one at least, (Liz you rock!) haha. This last Monday night Liz, Calista and I brought Charlee, Liz's step-son Baron and new baby girl Lily to Free play at Pump it Up!! It was awesome for Charlee to finally have a friend to play with! Even though Baron is 6, they still had a great time together. They even chatted in the backseat all the way home. Looking forward to many more play dates!! Thank you friends!!

Our Little Goofballs

Nice shot Baron!

Mama and Lily :)

What a healthy way to relieve aggression on your children! haha

Where to Baron?

Charlee's first bond with Lily (she'd make such a great big sister!!)

Goin' through the maze

Have fun Liz??

I'm so Bad

I don't even remember the last time I blogged. I decided to get a little CafeMom account to try and make new friends and just get some advice on some issues going on here. A few weeks ago, My mom took Charlee and I to San Marcos to visit my sister Kristi. We spent a nice relaxing day at the beach about 15 minutes away from her. Oh it was so nice to get away for a while and just enjoy the serenity of being with the ocean and watching my little one run around and really enjoy herself. I think she has a connection with water just like her Mommy! :) haha So here are pics of the beach trip. Plus Super Bowl Sunday. We went to our friend Kris's house and spent the day with his family and our friends. Even though the Cardinals lost :( we still had a great time. Charlee had fun with all the other little kids there.
During this time Charlee also moved into a daybed, made her first fort, and got into her body bath wash paints.

The big girl graduated to a day bed!
