Grammy, Papa, and May come for a visit

Grammy (AKA Manny) Papa, and Mailee came to see us here in California. It was a short visit but we fit in a trip to San Fransisco. We walked Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf, and crossed the Golden Gate Bridge. The weather was perfect, not to hot for Papa. May got to see the ocean for the 1st time. We also spent an afternoon at the lake swimming. Andre loves the water. I asked if he wanted to play in the sprinklers the other day and he asked me for his life jacket. Good habits starting early.

Uncle Anthony Comes to Visit From San Diego

Uncle Anthony arrives for a visit from San Diego. It was very nice to see him and his girlfriend Amani (excuse me if I mis-spell). We had a great time. It was the first time Andre met Uncle Anthony and they played and played the whole trip. We mostly spent quality family time together, we did make a trip to Chico, CA that is where we played in the water at Bidwell Park. When it was time for Anthony to leave, Andre said . . . "Where'd Anthony go" over and over for a few hours. He misses his uncle. We never thought both of us would end up in CA but here we are. It is our turn to make a trip down to San Diego. Anthony had some shirt on from down south that I was not sure what it meant . . . you might have to ask him about it!!!!!!

Mother's Day and A T-Rex Named Sue

Mom wanted to go swimming on mothers day so we headed out to Black Butte Reservoir to do a little swimming. Andre is posing with the flowers he gave to his mother! A few weeks later we took a trip to Redding CA and went to a museum, they were showing "A T-Rex Named Sue." Brad was also here that weekend, it was good to see him.

Easter 2009

Andre had a great time this easter. We looked for eggs, and dad showed him how to golf. At the end of the day we enjoyed some popcorn and a movie, Charlie makes a good pillow.

First Trip To San Francisco

This was our first trip to San Francisco. It was a blast. It was a quick day trip, it is only about 2.5 hours from where we now live in Orland, CA. Oh, I guess I should mention that we moved from Idaho! Rob got a new job in Willows, CA with the Forest Service and Jess now works at as a nurse in a specialty clinic at the local hospital. In SF we did most of the tourist stuff, we went to an aquarium, fishermans wharf and Pier 39.

MMMmmm a bit from the past

We have finally been able to receive internet at our house. It has been almost a year since our last post, but hopefully we will do this a bit more frequently. This is a bit of what you missed. We will try not to go back too far but we are doing very well. Andre is like a little man now. More to come soon.
