Fishing Trip to Bear Canyon Lake, Arizona

First fishing trip and although I am not a "natural", Zac and Alexander who invited me on this fun trip did catch 2.5 fish. It was a beautiful day to be outside.

P.S. Happy Birthday Jamie! Thanks for being a GREAT friend!

A Perfect Birthday

The photos that you see below are a mixture of a great birthday. On Thursday night family and friends took me to dinner and had cake.

On Friday morning I left for San Fran and met my Cousin Cyndi along with my Sister Tricia who came up fromOregon with her husband and four cute girls. Cyndi took a 1/2day and met me at the Bart Station. Tricia dropped her husband off with the girls at Aunt Ann and Uncle Heber's house at Fawn Hill. She then drove down to S.F. and met up with us where we stayed with Cyndi in her perfect size City Apt.
Saturday was officially my birthday and we did just about everything; We walked her steep hills to her cute neighborhood park, ordered yummy Chinese food, went to Alcatraz, Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf, Ghiradeli for ice cream, Chinatown, Museum, Golden Gate, City Parks, and Picked out our Mansions that we would like to live in. Yes, all in one day!
Sunday we drove to Fawn Hill where we spent Mother's Day with Aunt Ann and Uncle Heber, Darren, and my four nieces.

It was a great birthday and I loved every minute of it. I can't thank Cousin Cyndi enough for letting me come and visit AND Tricia and family who drove down to be with me and play.

Visit to Santa Monica to visit Sister Jill

Okay so you are thinking, "what is that"...well I thought the same thing when it came to me. Note to anyone that likes shrimp but doesn't LOVE shrimp. If they ground shrimp up it looks like "brains"...I just couldn't eat it. Also if you are in LA and you are looking for a place to eat, don't stop and eat at a place that looks like you are in "Mexico". Okay to be fair, the rest of the family enjoyed their meal. I just decided to take a risk and try something new. I won't be doing that again. :)
Julie, Mom, Me, and Amber at Santa Monica beach. Are you wondering where Jill is...well she was busy putting together an amazing MO' Fashion '08. It was a great Fashion Show and she did a great job.
Fashion District, "The Alley"...I have no idea if I am saying that right...I'm just not a local. However, we did visit the Flower warehouse and it was amazing to see so many beautiful flowers
I just couldn't capture the full beauty.
