TWO WEEKS LATER....

I tried posting last week and the photos wouldn't upload so I bagged the whole thing. Now I have LOTS of catching up to do.

Since I last wrote we have done a bunch of fun things including a day at the Huntington Library in Pasadena complete with a lunch at the Tea Room and a sneak preview of the Chinese Gardens. (See link on sidebar - I haven't figured out yet how to make a link within my text) and a trip to Solvang - which proports to be "the Danish capital of America." Danish does NOT equal donut in this case.

Here are a few shots from the Children's Garden at the Huntington.















We also had a great outing to Malibu where Pi met her Auntie Architect and Uncle Atlantis (aka Jay and Debbie).

Baby Chucks!!!!!

That's my girl...

Okay...that's Daddy's girl...

Mama and Our Hero

Happy New Year! P2 slept through all the noise and festivities at her Uncle D & Auntie Cupcake's house. So here's a picture of her parents bringing in 2007 with big hugs!



And something very pretty and sparkly for Mama...to make it all official later this year! :)
