Mountain High

Today we went sledding at Mt. High with Uncle Joe and his family.

We had so much fun.

Making snow angels.

Giving snow kisses.

The weather was perfect and the snow was beautiful!

Legoland

This is what a VERY excited 4 year old looks like...We visited the Sea Life Aquarium

and touched some sea stars

At night we roasted marshmallows and made smores while the sun set. Daniel loved to set the marshmallows on fire.

Then we would bundle up by the pool and watch a movie. It was a beautiful weekend.

Summer Fun

We love summer. On Friday, we went swimming with Daniel's friend Isaac. Then Daniel got to play inside a GIANT red ball.
Why didn't we have toys like this when I was a kid?

Then on Saturday, we went to see Toy Story 3 with some friends from school. It was so much fun. The kids all wanted to sit together, so all of us parents sat either behind them or in the row in front of them. It was too cute. I wanted to take a picture inside the theater but apparently other movie goers frown on stuff like that.

Dodgers vs. Braves

Our night at Dodger Stadium

Manny Ramirez impressed as always.

Daniel quickly made a new friend.

These were the best seats ever. We sat fourth row behind the dugout!

Daniel even got a special gift- A Matt Kemp Super Hero Action Figure!

Day at the Museum

What better way to spend a day off than to spend it with my father and my son. We packed up and headed for the Getty Museum. It was a beautiful day. Perfect weather and great company.

Daniel had a blast!

Special Playdate

On Monday, May 31st we had a special Play date with some of our favorite friends. Lots of boys= lots of fun!

I made chocolate cupcakes and topped them off with a Toy Story character. Of course, the boys tried to eat the toys. I always get a kick out of that. he he he.

I forgot to take a picture of the cupcakes, of course, but here is what was left of one.

Lots of food and good friends.

Everyone got to take a special bucket home filled with treats.

Field Trip to the Heliport

Today we had a field trip to a local Heliport. The kids got to see Police and Fire Rescue Helicopters. Definitely a boys' field trip.

Future pilot

First Dodger Game

On May 6, 2010 Daniel got to experience his first Dodger Game! The Dodgers played the Milwaukee Brewers and of course they won.

Daniel got to dance on the jumbo tron and someone sitting right in front of us caught a fly ball.

Daniel loved that it's OK to scream at a baseball game and actually encouraged.

He loved that mommy and daddy let him eat cotton candy.

Breakfast with the Firefighters

On Sunday, April 25, 2010, Daniel got to visit the Fire Station in Valley Glen.

He got to go in a helicopter. Drive a real Metro bus.
And even go into a real fire helicopter!

He also met a very special guide dog.

Our little guy is growing up!

Dolphin Adventure in Cabo

Ben got a kiss from Frida, the dolphin! Mommy got to dance with a dolphin!

This is one of my favorite pictures because you can see Daniel holding on for dear life to Daddy. He loved the dolphins and was even willing to touch them and long as he was safe in Daddy's arms.

Mexican Cruise 2010

We had an awesome time on our Mexican Cruise. We went to Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta. The highlight was definitely swimming with the dolphins.

Daniel played a few games of golf.At night we got to enjoy special treats like chocolate covered strawberries.

Sometimes we would come back to our cabin to find a special surprise like this elephant.
Daniel even made a new friend! It was a great trip.
