SEED GERMINATION by Jessica

OK, so perhaps 'we' might have overdone the design portion of the presentation . . . but I'm hoping Jess gets an A in today's science fair. Last year Jess got second prize, but this year the competition looks fierce with erupting volcanos (hasn't that really been done to death!) and electric potatoes.

Here Are Some of the Other Presentations

The Page Science Fair Approaches!!!

So we've been getting ready for weeks for the big Science Fair. The living room has been a mess as we mocked up the presentation board, painted radishes and cut borders. March 28th is the big day.

The Easter Bunny Arrives

And yet again, Jessica is spoiled rotten by an invading rodent. How does that bunny get the doors unlocked?

Sleepover at the Gnasher's

Much fun to be had at a sleepover this past week during Spring break. Jess and Addie made a fabulous tent in the living room (which you can imagine Adrian LOVED). The girls also had great fun decorating easter eggs. Check out the sparkle glitter paint which we used on the eggs, the table, the kitchen chairs and the tile flooring. Luckily a bit of 409 did the trick. The girls also enjoyed the two-computer household for some good times on Webkinz.com.

Lucy and Jess enjoy Charlie's Party

Charlie Turns ONE

He's a big man now, and was less than impressed with his Birthday cupcake. Me thinks he was wanting a steak!

Spring Has Sprung

Not to rub it in for our cold weather friends out of state, but Spring has Sprung in Los Angeles.

HOLIDAY IN CANCUN

Just back from a relaxing week in Cancun with the Wright family - Nigel, Sofia, Nick and Dylan. A great time was had by all (or so we hope!) and after a loooonnnggg day of flying for the Wrights, the week was smooth sailing. So many photo ops, so here are a few of the good ones.

THE KIDS HAD A GREAT TIME

Tons of time in the pool and plenty of shots of the kids all over the resort.

HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY JESSICA

Jessica turned seven this year in Cancun at a fabulous dinner with the cousins.

SWIMMING WITH THE DOLPHINS

Many shots from the trip to Xel-Ha. A day of snorkeling, all-you-can-eat buffets and swimming with dolphins. Here are some good dolphin shots with potentially the best shot being the dolphins jumping over the heads of the group.

LONG BEACH WHALEWATCHING

A quick trip to Long Beach between storms to do a bit of whalewatching. A great time was had by all and we managed to make it back to shore just before a new batch of rain hit.

STORM DAMAGE!!

And not to be outdone by Dave Zellhart with the storm damage he had last year, I've photographed our own damage, which was quite extensive. A plastic chair and small table were both knocked over! Stay tuned for more potential damage with the new storm coming this way!

Storm Cleanup

Adrian and Jess had to get up on the roof of the garage to gather up some leaves and in preparation for Part II of the big storm blowing through California. We've had 5" of rain so far with more to come. Hard to see from this pic showing blue skies, but it's been non-stop for five days. We have a brief break in the weather so are going to Long Beach this afternoon to go Whale Watching.

Lake Arrowhead Weekend

Here are a few pics of all the kids at Lake Arrowhead this weekend. A great time was had by all and we got up on the last morning to a big storm and falling snow. Fun for light and fluffy sledding, not so fun dealing with chains just-in-case for the drive down the mountain.
