Although I didn't take any pictures - on Friday night we went to see Harry Potter with Andy & Allison & Jeff. It was a great evening! Blake wore a Gryffindor scarf (yes even though it was 90 degress out!) and of course Andy wore his Muggle shirt. Another great movie to add to our collection. The kids loved the movie (the grown-ups did too).
Saturday was a fun a busy day! First we went to the Orange County Fair with our friends Kevin & Jamie. We had such a great time! I think the kids (ok & maybe Jamie & I) enjoyed the petting zoo the most....they had piglets, goats, a couple deer & a kangaroo. Although I didn't really enjoy the animals when a deer decided to try to swallow my shirt and a goat thought that my green skirt looked like grass and also tried to ingest it! As always I could write an entire paragraph on the fair food....fried twinkies, fried oreos, fried snickers, fried hamburgers, 2 lb burgers and over 2 foot long hot dogs! YIKES! I stuck with the grilled corn and it was delicious - although as you can see from the picture below - we also thoroughly enjoyed a funnel cake!
We watched Weird Al's 3-D Brain Movie
Then after the fair we went a Dodger's game w/ Mark & Joanne. Once again another fun night - we had AMAZING seats - only 5 rows away from the field. The seats came with a free pass to the buffet....delicious. Thanks Mark & Joanne for taking us!
I think we went to the beach about 3 times this week! On Wednesday, the kids and I drove out to LA to visit my niece. It was so nice to see her!
Sometimes I feel like a live in a zoo - between all of the kids that are constantly running throughout our house and the animals....Whew!
Oh yes, and Griswald is now a "lion" - very ferocious
We watched our friends precious baby, Abbie, for an afternoon - she is absolutely ADORABLE!
I finally finished our vegetable garden....we now have lettuce, tomatoes, bell peppers, summer squash, onions, carrots, rosemary, basil, mint, thyme, sage, flat leaf parsley and cilantro. On Sunday morning - we made scrambled eggs w/ our home grown tomatoes and basil & parsley - delicious!
A great week! We are really enjoying our summer activities - although I must admit - we are already day dreaming about what we are going to do for Christmas! It's in the blood - we're Browns - we have to start our Christmas planning early!
