Babies, Babies, Babies.....Auntie Sarah had the great idea of going to the farm this week. We got to see one day old goats, baby sheep, pigs, cows and Mother Goose with Goober. Amelia's favorite....yep, rocks! She'd pick up little rocks and toss them into the hole where you'd stick your head for a photo op. Her least fav.....Mama Pig! The stall appeared to be empty, until Auntie Sarah and Amelia peeked their heads in for a look and below them was the biggest mama pig ever!!!!! Stephanos enjoyed looking around at all the animals as well. We met the Fairs Mother Goose. She was snuggling with Goober a rescue goose. He had his neck wrapped around hers. Every time she gave him a squeeze he'd make that lovely goose sound:) It was a beautiful sunny day.

Great Grandma's Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies vs Girl Scout Cookies
Amelia and I made Great Grandma Inez's chocolate oatmeal cookies. Just as we were putting the dough on the cookie sheet to be baked, a Girl Scout came to the door with our cookies! Go figure. Amelia couldn't wait for the homemade ones, so she ate a peanut butter Girl Scout cookie instead. I liked the Chocolate Oatmeal ones better. GS don't make'em like they used to. Doesn't stop me from eating them:)
Lunch with more family
We met up with Cyn, Straty's Cousin Mike and Uncle Ted for drinks, a walk downtown and lunch. The Halibut Sandwich was del'ish! After a wonderful afternoon, we headed back home.
Morning fun in Palm Springs
We stayed at the Hyatt Suites DT Palm Springs. Straty and I put the kids to bed and sat on the patio with a beer and people watched. It's amazing what drunks do when they think no-one is looking! In the morning we walked around the resort. The pool was decorated in orange and cream!!!! We went to Ruby's for breakfast. YUMMY...Amelia loved the choo choo train.
Quick trip to Palm Springs
I think our room is "whiii way mama!"
We had dinner with Auntie Mary and Uncle Nick and Auntie Cyn Friday night at No Da Te! Yummy Sushi!!!!! Amelia LOVES Soy Beans. It was such a great visit. Uncle Nick and Amelia were tear'n up the streets as they danced. She's such the entertainer! The end of our visit was full of hugs!!!! Amelia is very fond of her Great Auntie and Uncle. I think Uncle Nick got 3 hugs and a kiss! xoxoxo Later Amelia asked "where'd un Nick go?" Looking forward to another visit next month. We enjoyed Palm Springs and have booked a week in April. We're hoping to get out there in March though, even if it's just for the night. As you can see Amelia, loves to travel. She pulled her own suit case and made it on the elevator herself. Such a cutie!
