Happy First Birthday

Happy first birthday Lyla! I had so much fun planning her party. Lyla wore her hanbok (korean dress) and we made a doljabi board which is where 4 items were set out and Lyla chooses one item which predicts her path in life. The pig represents wealth, the pencil represents education, thread represents long life, and a microphone representing an entertainer. Lyla chose the thread and I guess will be living a long life, I was kind of hoping for wealth but whatever. Lots of cake and lots of goodies.

It is crazy how fast time flies by and how big my baby girl is getting. Life gets so busy I feel like I don't realize how quickly my kids are changing. It's kind of fun having Lyla's birthday on the first day of the year, I get to make new resolutions of what I can do better as a mother. Really, I can think of something I could do better just about everyday. I am looking forward to new beginnings and for my kids to continue growing. The interesting things they do and say everyday keep me entertained.

Happy Birthday and Happy New year!

Christmas Pics

Christmas 2010

We are home from our christmas vacation in Utah. I will miss the snow but I am not missing lugging kids around in the cold. We had so much fun and like usual it goes by too quickly. I know the kids are happy to be home and Cache has been asking to come home for a few days now. Christmas was good and now it is on to planning a first birthday party on New Years Day. Wish me luck!

One much needed girls weekend. I have not been away from my kids in, mmmmmmm, ever! Thank you to my husband who was totally on board.

D-land

Disneyland! I have always disliked disneyland. I think it is because the last time I went I was in my early teens, hated the world, so embarressed of my family, and did not want to be at the "happiest place on earth." I wish I had a photo of that time...I can just see myself cringing when my mom made us stand together and take a picture. Anyway, we decided to head to orange county to visit dave's "bff" (he was in such a great mood the whole weekend) and try my luck once again at disneyland. It turned out to be such a great trip, the kids did awesome in the car, we stayed in a great hotel, had fabulous company, and loved disneyland. I didn't want to leave. It is a rare occassion that I am not ready to go home from a vacation but I truly didn't want to go. Sadly, we made it home just in time for lyla to get sick...poor baby.

I had to give a shout out to Joy who sat and watched my baby while I got to go on a few rides with cache and dave. How awesome is that? Especially when each line is like a 20 minute wait...minimum.

Cache and Sunny!


Dave, Cache, Ben, and Sunshine. I don't think Sunshine was quite as excited to see cars as Cache was.
