Once again I have neglected my blog. I guess I should just be realistic and come to terms with not being on top of my blog. It just isn't going to happen. I have not posted in about a month so this is a review of our past month!
My niece Alex is in NCL and she walked in their fashion show this year! Brought back some memories! Can't believe how long ago it was that I was in NCL!
Here she is on the catwalk! She was so nervous but did so well! Such a fun day!
Jimmy and I all dolled up. Too bad the shadow was on me!
The girls with my brother
Brianna and I
Brianna had Red & Gold and she was on Gold this year. It was sad for everyone that this is her last year for Red & Gold. Here she is with some of her friends.
This year Brianna chose to be on the drama team. So she had a few lines. She remembered her lines and did very well!
Gold Team WON!!!
Jake had Olympics at his school. Playing basketball...
Yay! It went in! He liked playing basketball!
Next was an obstacle coarse around the playground!
And last racing around the playground on the scooter or tricycle. I realized we have set Jake back a bit. We thought it was such a wonderful idea of getting Jake started on a pushbike so he could learn to balance and not need training wheels. He loved his pushbike and always wants to ride it. Well, he kinda skipped learning how to pedal! So he still can't pedal, poor kid!
Jake with his medal and award, he was so proud of himself!
Class picture!
James had open house. He was thrilled and could not wait for open house. It was the cutest thing.
James and a couple kids looking at roll pollies.
This was so funny. All the kids said the funniest stuff! I love to see what they say!
James's self portrait colored with pastels. He loved coloring with pastels.
I feel lucky...
This is James' computer work he did all by himself!
It was fun seeing all the stuff they are learning!
One night Jake fell asleep early and James was up playing xbox. James passed a level and was so excited. He could not wait to tell Jake. I put James to bed and I was in bed and hear some movement in their room. In the monitor I see James trying to wake up Jake. He kept saying, Jake wake up, I just passed a level. He tried so hard to wake him but it wasn't working. Too cute!
Brianna and I went to San Francisco for the night to visit San Francisco State to see if she really would want to go to school there.
Our hotel
The view from our hotel
We got there Friday afternoon and we ate, shopped, and ate some more!
The restaurant at the hotel Nikko where we stayed was very yummy.
The dessert was called the fog, and it was very foggy, pretty cool!
We took some public transportation and we loved it. We learned our lesson after a $40 taxi ride one way and a $4 metro ride the way back!
Although Brianna decide that SFSU was not for her, we did have a good time. It was the first trip ever we had been somewhere just the two of us! Hopefully we will not let so much time go by that we do it again!
This year again we went to Nonni's and colored eggs as a family!
Tons of eggs to color and it takes about 5 minutes to do it!
Much more fun this way!
Easter morning the boys waiting for us to get up.
Yay! The Easter Bunny came!
Going to find the eggs
And he didn't want to share with anyone. Although Father said he must share.
At church Father had a real bunny and James got to pet it!
After we went over to Aunt Rochelle's house.
Ava and Brianna
They had an Easter egg hunt...
It was gorgeous weather
The boys drove the boat
We went to the fun zone and played in the arcade.
We stopped by the boat house and James tried out the erg.
The next day we went to the beach
It was freezing cold!!
We had such a great time and we can't wait till summer!
This year again we went to Nonni's and colored eggs as a family!
During mass Father kept giving things away to the kids and he gave James this chocolate bunny. Jake somehow got a hold of it and wouldn't let go. He held that bunny close the rest of the mass!
So he ended up sharing, thank goodness.
All the little kids
Over spring break we had a stay-cation at Nonna and Grandpy's house.
We took the duffy out
We saw a sea otter, very close to us.
We had frozen bananas and ice-cream.
James wanted to go to the skate park so Craig and him went. He was so brave!!
We went out to dinner with Nonna and Grandpy
The crazy boys went in the water!!
