Memorial Day Weekend 2010

Boy oh boy it goes by so fast!!!! Friday we did an imprompto bbq for the Mckown's who are moving to Fallbrook CA, we are going to miss them but might even see them more now since you take for granted what is right in front of you until it isn't as accessible anymore. Saturday the family met at the OC fairgrounds under the assumption we could go to the farm and see animals as well as take in some bluesy/jazz music unfortunately the farm was sectioned off due to a scottish festival going on, so we enjoyed the music then walked around the huge, i mean huge swap meet, it must have been a mile square of vendors, we went down two rows, there are like 20 rows then to the produce and got some of the sweetest strawberries. Where else can you get two of the flexible cutting boards for $1. Then NANA decided that Amelia needed the dogs. It's one of the electric toys that moves the dogs from the bottom to the top then they slide down which in itself would have been great but the annoying barking noise it makes drove me quite mad this weekend, i think amelia wore out a battery already oh no because NANA bought a spare one-oh the humanity:) On Sunday we took Goldie to the Beach enjoyed the great weather another BBQ and then built a huge sand castle, stephanos oversaw the endeavor while the family all pitched in. On monday we kind of kicked back and met for lunch at the country club where amelia really enjoyed throwing the golf balls all over the putting greens. Thanks for a wonderful weekend good thing we only have to wait 4 days for the next one.

What an amazing weekend started off with a round of golf shot a 79 then two days of beautiful weather and great blues i want to thank my wife for letting me go it's my third time in a row and really enjoy it. I only have some pictures of that being jenny was with the kids

The Duckathon

This weekend we went down to the Huntington Beach Pier and had our duck Strawberry race with about 5000 other ducks in the ocean to the beach sadly she didn't win but finished strong. We had a great picnic at the pavilion and waited for the start of the race. It was a beautiful day.

Mother's Day

What a great day Jenny awoke to her favorite Vanilla Latte and some mother's day gifts from Amelia and Stephanos. Everybody came over for a grilled steak and chicken over a spinach salad (thank you K&D) with grilled asparagus seasoned wonderfully if you ask me good job Amelia. Then we all went out to the park and had the Mothers against the mothers yet to be determined in a four event, winner get bragging rights for the year competition. Great job Krista and Sarah you crushed Carla and Jenny:) After playing in the park and the girls tried unsuccessfully to attack us with water balloons by the way that catch Drew, was awesome, we headed back into the house for amazing desserts courtesy of dessert master chef Sarah. I'm sure Dean is quality control. I only have one picture so far from this great day hopefully my paparazzi will provide me with some more.

More to Come

Hello all, Jenny has been the one updating the blog the majority of the time but due to some computer issues she has only been able to put up some stuff here and there so I the Dad will start to become more active blogging accounts of our lives with our two amazing kids. Two weekends ago I decided to wash the cars that so needed a bath and in the process Amelia asked if she could try "me try daddy" I have to train her early:)

6 months old...

He can sit up, but timbers forward if the wind blows too hard. Sing the high pitches like Mariah Carey. Say over and over "Nigh nigh nigh nigh nigh nigh..." Cry when you leave the room or sees his bottle. Gives you the biggest smile with those sparkly blue eyes when you enter the room. Play with his toes and yells at Mr. Monkey then bites him. He can laugh at daddies bad jokes and when sissy gives him silly faces. He can melt your heart and then steal it! He's my Hot Stuff, now called Slugger. Why? Because he has the best left hook! In the check twice and once in the lips today! He LOVES his big sister! Let's hope they play like this forever!!!!

Bruizer Buster ready for his first boxing match!

Weighing in at 20.1 pounds and standing 2.5 feet tall Stephanos is ready for Stage Two of baby foods! Is mommy? Holy cow no! Heading to the store tonight to make a bunch of food. Doc says he can have noodles and chicken now. Man on Man my little hot stuff is growing! Doc says he's doing awesome, 90% in his class:) Amelia was such the big sister as her baby brother was getting his shot this morning. She laid next to him and kept him laughing, kissing his forehead and loving on him. I'm so proud of my two babies!

Our baby turned 6 months yesterday and he is getting so big his older sister loves to hold him and play with him
