Sunday Night Surprise!
I almost forgot! when I got home Sunday night, there on the kitchen table was the mail and an envelope for me from Creative Cafe ! I won one of their sweepstakes they have on their blog for us readers! and it was to cute! 3 bottles of their new glitter glue in great colors pink, blue, green and some fun glitter green brads I can not wait to use on a page! I am going to try and scrap this weekend! and add the photos here!

HAPPY TO BE HOME!
Last Wednesday the girls and I left for a road trip across California (well we actually went north from Oceanside to Sonoma about 495 miles!) The good thing my girls are good travelers. It also helped that we got one of those portable DVD players, so they watched movies on the way up.
Once we got to Sonoma we had a fun time! On Thursday we went to the new museum in San Francisco with anti Janna, my kids really enjoyed looking at the albino alligator. I personally do not know what was more interesting the alligator or the enclosure. It truly looked like a swamp a fancy one (Something Fancy Nancy would say!) he had mist and trees, lots of fish and turtles to keep him company. All the other exhibits were just as fascinating to see also! there were lots of rare fish and jelly fish too!
On Friday we drove another 85 miles to Ukiah and got to spend some fun times with Grandma Lynette, it was a beautiful drive, lots of wineries on the way I wanted to stop, instead I just took some pictures. The girls were happy to see their grandma and not to happy that we could not stay longer! we will try to go back to Clear Lake this summer!
Saturday the girls played with the new fun toys yaya surprised them with (arts and crafts! give a child a crayon and they are so very happy!) and then we spend the rest of the afternoon at the park in Sonoma playing and watching the ducks and the people. kids and parks they go very well together! we then had a nice dinner with the family!
Sunday after breakfast we drove home! we had a short drive at the Golden Gate Bridge and took some photos there, we also had a chance to stop by Anti June's house and got to see June & Jeff and the cousins (Kenny, Shelly and Kayla also Vicky and Amanda and just when we got there Lori Alyssa and Blake) for a little bit. Then we were home safe and sound by 10 p.m. Sunday night! and yes so glad to be home! in hot sunny Oceanside.

I have decided to try this! why? I did ask myself that!
hopefully to be able to get better at writing about our life and to help me remember for those times when I find myself scrap booking in the middle of the night or sometimes after 3 a.m. and my brain goes blank! but that those not mean I stop! I just keep going! one more page!
Next thing I know is 5 a.m. and time to go home and get a few hours of sleep before the kids wake up, wanting food! you would think that times like this I would just give them a bowl of cereal and call it a day! no not me! the weekend is time for coco's type of big breakfast!
the whole nine yards, eggs, pancakes, hash browns, bacon, fruit plate and juice. The weekends are the only days I cook a big breakfast the weekdays is all about cereal, fruit shakes, fruit.
till next time......
