Madison turns SEVEN !

August 16th, 2008

Madison had her 7th birthday today. Her best pal Mia came over and we all went bowling (which was not her favorite part of the night - and that's all I'm going to say). Then we went out to her favorite restaurant, El Gringo for some quesadillas, and finally home for cake, presents and a sleep over. The sleep over went remarkably well, except for the requests for water, and their fear that there were black widows in their room! (not). The horse theme turned out pretty cute, and her newest favorite colour, light blue. One more year 'till we have to eat that much cake in one week!

Sydney Turns THREE !

Happy Birthday to our little princess! Yes, she is ALL about the pink, and ALL about the princesses right now. Cute, but we hope she grows out of it sooner rather than later. We had the Kershaw family over to celebrate her special day: Kayla, Luke, Michele and Nigel. Big sister Madison was so helpful at clean up time and a fun time was had by all..

Rola Visit!

My best old pal from Toronto came for a visit this month. We did everything under the sun. And did it with two kids, in two weeks. San Diego, Canada Day, her birthday, July 4th, Hollywood Sign, Grauman's Chinese, Kodak Theater, two cemetaries where the famous are buried (she has a thing for cemetaries), Santa Monica Pier, Third Street Promenade, Malibu with lunch on the water at Duke's, Long Beach and rented a boat, the La Brea Tar Pits, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Torrance, Palos Verdes to see the Trump golf course, and of course, who can forget Beverly Hills, where I was pulled over by a nice officer only to have Viola embarrass me by asking him for a photo! Good Times. I miss you boo!
