May Weekend Fun

We've had quite a month. Clark & Lilly came to visit us in Santa Barbara. We went to visit Clark & Lilly in Irvine. This past weekend was busy. On Saturday, we went out to Thai with Mike & Shayna then went to the mission to see the i Madonnari street paintings and the rose garden. On Sunday, we had Persian food made by our neighbors, Mehrnaz and Yassin. On Monday, Scott came to our house and made the most amazing burgers with blue cheese. I think I gained at least 5 lbs this weekend. =-(
Here are the pictures:

On the way home from home, Claron bet me that I couldn't get 50mpg.

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Happy Mother's Day everyone! What a great Mother's Day! Claron made breakfast in bed for me. He also bought me tons of great presents (a mandevilla, a set of 600TC sateen sheets, The Host by Stephenie Meyer, Best Recipe International by America's Test Kitchen, and cut flowers). He made me a 3D card. He also promised me a Wii Fit! Our ward gave us a CD of inspirational music, an orchid corsage, and fudge. I'm attaching pictures:

This is the mandevilla, the awesome card, my super sheets, and my two books.

Lilly demonstrates the cards pop up and Clark shows the spinning wheel.

Claron racked up some major points. I'll have to think of something good for Father's Day! Any ideas? Oh and I talked in church this week. It went well.

A Visit from Meme

So, I've had this stuff together for quite a while, but I haven't posted. Sorry! My mom came to visit. We had a great time. We completed a lot of projects while she was here. My yard looks great. Eliza calls her "Meme." As for Eliza, she is doing wonderfully. She walks very well. She does "baby yoga." It is hilarious. She is eating everything again. Yea for that! She now has SIXTEEN teeth! Insane, I know! She is generally very happy and fun.






Don't you love this look? It says, "Meme gave it to me, so you can't take it away!"

Meme and Lala doing one of La's favorite things.


Eliza loves to root through your purse.


The joys of teething babies!

She is happy most of the time though!

She is also fierce.


The truth of who really writes these posts.
