This past December was one
of those times I wish I could freeze
and just replay over and over.
The story actually begins
with the last picture of this post and goes up...
however, condsidering I haven't posted in 2 months,
I'm not going to worry about the mix up.
We will just start at the end.
Well, kind of the end, as this is only part one!
We were greeted in San Diego,
with pouring rain!
So much so, that Sea World had to close because of flooding.
However, a little rain couldn't scare us off!
We headed for a day...
at the Beach and the Zoo!
at the Beach and the Zoo!
After a quick run into Target...to purchase
7 umbrellas.
The Zoo was empty, go figure?
We took advantage of the lack of crowds and sang
"Singing in the Rain" while twirling our umbrellas
down the streets of the Zoo.
Really. we did.
We have video to prove it!
Most memorable Zoo day,
ever.
To celebrate
Mandi's 14th birthday,
Lou took the b-day girl along with Mac and Mitch,
to a professional basketball game at the Staples center!!
Yes, my daughter
wanted to celebrate her birthday at a basketball game!
Where did she come from?
This girl is going to make some boy very happy one day.
She is the perfect mix of girly girl and tomboy.
They had a blast!
We truly LOVE,love,love,
this beautiful,smart,fun,talented,determined
14year old.
Happy Birthday
Mandi girl!!
SO...scrolling down to the bottom of the post,
you will find the real reason behind our
Cali Christmas!
It first began in Arizona,
where my niece Joslyn was sealed for eternity
to her now husband, Justin.
This was such a special occasion and we felt blessed to be a part of this sweet day.
I just love these pictures of Justin and Gracie
dancing at Josy's reception!
They will be fun to display at their weddings....
one day!
The morning of the wedding,
Justin came to greet his bride,
Justin came to greet his bride,
dressed in this dashing BLUE tuxedo.
Hilarious.
Time with family,
the perfect way to start our vacation!
....to be continued,
part 2!!

Fun times! I hope someone gets married soon so we can see each other again! Love seeing you guys and we don't get to nearly enough!
By the way, thanks for your comment on my blog post. I don't know what my triggers are!! I eat when I'm happy, sad, mad, bored, whatever! But those are great ideas and as for running I may have found a partner, best part is that she;s my neighbor! so excited about that! I'm doing the couch to 5k program and it has little goals that add up to a big goal and it makes doing the treadmill not so tedious! Anyway, thank you for your support, can't wait to see you all again! Love you!!
This is mom again, great great fantastic family!!!!!!!!! love you
