It's Been a While...

We enjoyed our Independence Day at The Angel's Stadium.  I don't really watch baseball,

But that was a great game!  We had a great view of the fireworks!

This is everyone who came with us, including my nephew Wesley, and niece Savannah...

Me, Kira, Josh, and Ry...

Our view of the game.  I know that these are considered nosebleed seats, but I am not complaining.  Someone started the wave, and we kept it going for about 15 minutes.

Brooke, Ry, and Josh...

My bro-in-law Greg...

My dad, and sister Julie...

My sis-in-law Kelly, my niece Savannah, and Caitlyn...

Kiki was all smiles!  One of my favorite Independence Days ever!!!

California Mission...

This weekend Caitlyn and I were busy building the

San Antonio de Padua Mission.

Caitlyn busy gluing beans to the rooftops.   This was a very time consuming process,

but it was well worth it in the end.  Almost a whole 32 oz bag was used.

Working on building the fountain.

Theses next pictures are part of the finished product...

This is the poultry yard, and garden.

This is the courtyard.  It has the fountain, orange trees, a couple of grape vines,

the well with an awning, palm trees, and some random plants and trees.

View of the front with the cemetery..

The church, with the bell tower.

Bird eye view... notice on the front right hand corner is the olive tree.

I'm so proud of my Caiti!  Well done!

Father & Son Outing...

The father/son outing has come and gone again.  This was Andrew's 

outing with dad, and Ryan.  The boys gave it a big thumbs up!  Ryan 

came home excited that they got to pretend to be soldiers from the scriptures.

Pretty cool!

Making silly faces is a must!!!

Day Spa...

We decided it would be fun to have a SPA day.  This is all the 

stuff we used for haircuts, and hairdos.

Ryan patiently waiting his turn while reading a magazine. :)

Instead of relaxing bath like mom likes,  the kids had a fun 

bubble bath, and washed their hair for the hair cuts.

I'd like to say I have a finished picture of the event, but I don't.

By the time it was over with, both me and he kids were ready for it to be done.
