March 2026

Mia gave the bird business her all but it just wasn't meant to be. 

As a last ditch effort she set up a pet and hold station in front of the house to make a little money.

Oliver came with Kinga and I on a field trip to the Santa Ana Zoo.

Beth came down for a moms and kids weekend as all the dads were out of town.

We went to a fun barbecue place for dinner Friday night with lots of play areas.

Even the very tall teenager could stand up in this vintage bus on the playground.

Saturday was an all day pool party!

And then we celebrated Chase's 9th birthday! Big sister got to light the candles.

What should I wish for....

No blowing candles out when Grandpa is home. You gotta clap em.

Presents are the best...

Good bye March!

 

February 2026

 No walk to the park is complete without a sit in the big red chair!

Guess who's getting ready to drive! She's been taking practice tests for almost a year now!

We had a scaled down Super Bowl party this year but Dan just can't scale down the Texas torpedo!

Mia and Riley went with friends to the Winter Formal.

Dan took Kinga to an indoor playground and one of her school friends was there. 

They had a blast together!

During ski week we had the interior of our house painted so we stayed in an AirBNB and made the girls play games with us. 😂

It poured and poured the whole week. We did get out and take a Warner Brothers Studio Tour.

We were freezing and wet the whole time!

They offered the whole tram a chance for a photo op on the famous sofa in front of the fountain. 

No one took them up on it.

We got to the see the original set of the Perk coffee shop.

And Mia got to fly like Harry Potter.

Darlene, Denis and I met at the Great Junk Hunt in Pomona.

You have never seen so much costume jewelry in your life!

My sole purchase for my new shelving unit.

A few nights later we went to visit Melissa and Kelly at their campsite in Doheny 

and headed over to Olamendi's for dinner.

So long February!
