03.01.03 HAPPY
"SWEET SIXTEEN"
to my nieces, CHRISTEL & AMANDA! Also,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Chi! I can't believe we're in March already! It's scary how fast the days seem to fly by. I wish there was a way of slowing it down. Brian, Grace, and Baby Brandon came down to visit today. We took them to Alerto's in Fountain Valley for lunch. Alerto's (or Alberto's, or Alberta's, etc..) is an authentic Mexican fast food chain....they have THE BEST carne asada burritos! After
lunch, we went to Marukai for some groceries (and met up with my father-in-law
and Netty there too). I picked up some groceries, and Grace and I
took our time browsing the aisles slowly. Marukai is great! Not only
do you have a large selection of fresh produce, seafood, meats, fish,
and Japanese/Hawaiian goods, but it's not nearly as costly as other
Japanese markets. Afterwards,
we went home and relaxed. Ashlyn wanted to watch "Barney"
again, so I popped it in to keep her occupied. The men hung out in
the office while Grace and I prepped dinner. Occasionally I would
peek over to see what she's doing...because if she's too quiet, more
than likely she's up to NO good. hehehehe Grace, James, Lauren, and Taylor joined us for dinner. We dined on Korean short ribs and sliced beef. With all the lil' ones, it was difficult for all of us to sit down together for dinner. We had to eat in shifts. Ahhhh, the joys of parenthood. =P hehehehe Let me just say that Baby Brandon is soooooo adorable! I can't believe how much he's grown! He's such a big baby!...not fat, just BIG! Being only a couple months old, he's almost the same height as Taylor! We had a fun and relaxing evening hanging out with our friends. Everyone left by midnight. *YAWN!* I'm pooped! Nitey-nite! =) Pictures from today:
