G & P Wright Visit

Last weekend we were so happy to get to spend with Grandma Cindy and Papa Wright. It was fun to show them our new house and just spend some quality time with them. It is always so nice having them.

Playing at the "Dinosaur" park near our house

My little Jordo is getting so big!

Sunday we headed down to Crystal Cove. SUCH a neat little secret we never knew about in OC! It was a terrific beach and as you can tell from the pictures we were not quite prepared to spend so much time at the beach. We all had a great time and we will definitely be going to this beach again!

Just love this picture of Grandma and Jordy

The boys had so much fun playing in the ocean

Sweet Brothers right . . .Most of the time but in this instance 5 seconds after this picture Jordy was face first in the sand. Poor little guy. I guess that is what brothers do and then they are buds again.

Easter 2012

As I continue to grow older I gain a new understanding for the blessing that is Easter. Jesus Christ is risen! And we are all here to reciprocate His love for us to each other! Our Easter was beautiful and as a family of four we spent our morning at mass and then on to a pancake breakfast. We then headed home to see what the Easter Bunny had brought and find the eggs he had hidden.

A few days before Easter the caterpillars that we were watching turn to butterflies came out of their cocoons. What a fun spring experience to be able to do with your kids. Logan has been talking about the butterflies a lot and always want to go outside and see if they have returned.


I just love seeing all three of them share a blanket. They are becoming such good buds.
My little potato head :) He put those glasses on all by himself!
On Saturday we had a family day at the Irvine railroad where they have a lot of Easter activities for the kids. The Easter Egg Hunt was a big hit with both the boys.

I LOVE my Boys!

G & P Stanzel Visit

Grandma and Papa Stanzel came to visit last week. As usual it was so nice having them here. We did a bit of sight seeing as well as just enjoying time together at our new house.

Checking out Torrey Pines golf course! A hit especially with Dad.

Then we headed to the USS Midway which is a retired aircraft carrier that was in service during the years 1943-1992. It was really neat to see a piece of history up close.
Checking out some of the old aircraft.Definitely lots of fun for the boys (and girls :) ).




The next day we headed down to San Juan Capistrano to visit Zoomars, a local petting zoo. Jordy and Logan got to ride the horses and they both had a blast! Jordy especially absolutely LOVED it.
From there we headed to one of the first Catholic Missions that was founded in 1776 by Fr. Juniperro Serra. It was really a neat and beautiful place.

My Wonderful Parents!

Thanks for coming to see us! We love you!

Kenley is 2!

A week ago Kenley turned 2! She and her parents have become more like family to us and we were happy to be able to share in her big day.
