Life according to my iPhone

This past weekend was gorgeous. It was in the high 80's Saturday and Sunday. We spent most of the weekend outside playing in Elle's kiddy pool and the sprinklers.

Easter 2012

It was a beautiful day today. We woke up and attended Mass. Elle lasted about 45 minutes which is pretty good for her. After Mass we enjoyed an amazing brunch with lots of family. Elle loved hunting for Easter eggs and had an even better time eating the candy inside. Elle received mostly summer themed presents from all of her grandparents. She even got a little teak lounge chair and her very own Adirondack chair. The boys watched lots of golf and the ladies lounged around the pool. We can't wait for summer time!

Water Baby

We spent the weekend in Newport to celebrate some friends' birthdays. The forecast called for rain on Sunday so we spend as much time as we could outside on Saturday. We went for a long walk/run along the boardwalk, stopped by the fish market, picked up a new bathing suit for Elle at Jack's, ate lunch at A's Market, got a treat at French's Bakery and spend some time at the beach. It was cool so we mostly went so Elle could play in the sand. When Ryan took her to put her feet in the water she ran right in, sweatshirt and all. We let her play in the water for a few minutes and she was having a blast. I have a feeling we will be spending a lot of time in the water this summer.

Life according to my iPhone

Lots of beautiful weather means lots of time outside. Elle loves the water! I also had to add in a shot of my wallpaper on my computer. That face! I can't get enough.

Elle's first trip to Palm Desert

We had a wonderful time in Palm Desert this weekend with some great friends. The boys golfed while the girls went shopping. We took advantage of the beautiful weather and spent most of our day outside. Elle loved swimming in her spa with her friend Sofia. She loved running around the golf course and even found a pink golf ball she wouldn't put down. We can't wait to do it again!

 Finally pigtail stage!

Valentine's Day 2012

I know this blog has been "collecting cobwebs" as my aunt has said. I'm blaming it on our horrible internet service from Time Warner (which we have since ditched) and maybe a little time spend chasing a toddler around. Anyways, here is a look at our Valentine's Day.

Video of Elle- Christmas 2011

Here are a few video clips of Elle the past few weeks. She is into EVERYTHING. Grandma Debbie's nickname for her is the tornado and I would have to agree!

Mad Men Christmas Party

For the past few years Grandma and Grandpa have had a pajama party for Christmas; this year they decided to change things up a bit. We celebrated the season with a Mad Men Christmas party. It was so much fun. Everyone really got into the theme. A few of us picked up some authentic vintage dresses at Elsewhere Vintage in Orange. Finding Elle's dress was a little more difficult. Vintage kids clothes were so hard to find. I lucked out by picking up this little red number at Vintage Baby in downtown Upland.
