Happy Father's Day!

I planned a trip to the track, but dad preferred to go to Disneyland. Come on watching horses run around in circles and betting sounded fun to me. Instead, we spent a the whole day at California Adventure which turned out to be really fun--more fun than losing money at the track.

In 9 hours we went on 4 rides (5 for Daddy and Luciano) 2 shows, 2 parades, 2 meals and one ice cream treat.

BTW - Dad what can I say--you are the best and we LOVE you. You are fun, make sure we eat well, entertain us all and put up with me. We can't express how great you are!!!

And, here is an accidental video. I didn't realize it was on during the Ferris Wheel. We convinced Dad to go on a swinging car which is similar to the Wonder Wheel at Coney Island. Listen to our sport--Dad--is at the last 2 seconds of the video.

Buster's birthday party

The chickens move outside

Bee Swarm

We went out for hot dogs today. We were swarmed by bees five minutes after this picture. No one was bit thankfully.

Harvest Time

We harvested the carrots and now the kids all of a sudden don't like them. So much for growing our veggies.

Roller Skating

Luciano REALLY likes roller skating. Too bad we have to take turns with the princess skates.

Picnic

We are big into picnics these days.

new layout

I am still working on the new layout. I know it looks odd. It is hard to make updaes with Luciano pulling my hair.

The rehearsal video

Here is Bella practicing at the dress rehearsal.

The recital

Before the show the girls ran around and got all sweaty.

On stage with her buddy, Wilder.

Right after we got through hair and make up.

This was A LOT easier than last year.

Practice Run

Today is the big recital. Bella woke up at 6AM to get ready. Here she is practicing putting on her makeup--pretty. Wow the recital is at 6PM. This is going to be a long day.

Cupcake Cake

That's the name of chick number 3. Two more names to go.

Baby

Luciano was in charge of naming this chick, meet "Baby".

Luciano goes sleeping, I mean shopping
