Trejo Bday party


Today we went to Christopher and Matthew's birthday party. It was hot but lots of fun. Here we are playing with Peter and Vincent Klima.

Fun at Pretty Gramma's



It felt like summer this weekend- 85 at Pretty Gramma's house! We went to a fun park and of course, made new friends. Played in the hot tub. Bella did a back flip out of the hot tub, by mistake, and ended up with a small head wound. Almost another trip to the emergency room for stitches. Aunt Renee to the rescue!

Fun filled weekend




What a beautiful weekend! It started on Thursday with daddy going to Vegas so we had extra mommy time. We bought Patrick's Halloween costume-Dash from the Incredibles! Wait until you see him in his mask-so cute. Saturday we ended up on a close to 3.5 hour walk with mommy. We went to the Hermosa Beach and played in the sand. We had fun in our costumes while mommy watched boys playing volleyball. On our way home we saw a sign for "Tall Ships" so we thought we'd check it out. Two very cool boats at the Redondo Pier. We went on the "Lynx"-it was 72 feet long. Here we are sitting pretty. It even had cannons-the cannonball was heavy! Sunday we decided to go to Disneyland. There are pumpkins everywhere. Disneyland is always fun. We went on the new Toy Mania ride-it's like a huge video arcade. A great day and weekend. So sad tomorrow is back to school.

Habitat for Humanity


This was my day of work on Wednesday. I hammered away and even got to use a saw. The roof will stay on now! Also with me- Darren (rest manager), Mark (my boss), Enrique (acctg) and John (HR).

Saturday activities



We started our day with the LA Zoo- in the spirit of Halloween. Patrick loves telescopes-hmm, future astronomer or pirate? We went to the beach-it was crazy windy. Bella had her pose on-too funny.

El Segundo HS Homecoming



Friday we went to El Segundo HS Homecoming. This is Bella and Celeste, I work with her mom. Such memories of HS band days. I don't remember fireworks at any of our half time shows. The kids had a great time!

ABC's according to Isabella and Patrick



This is cute. Patrick has been singing his ABC's non stop. He did it for the first time a few weeks ago and I was stunned. We worked so hard on teaching Bella and I guess have neglected working on them with him. He got it by default-watching her do her homework and just being around when we work with her on letters. Patrick is already picking up the letter sounds that Bella is working on now! Another genius! Look out Ivy League.
