good ole' la county fair...

We didn't make it to the Orange County fair this year...I am actually not sure why....but I think I like the LA county one better...its bigger...more shopping...more to see...and horse races! We went with my mom and stepdad like we did last year. We have fun at the horse races with them! So much fun this year, next year will be EVEN BETTER when T is a little bigger!

The horse we bet on...it lost...thanks guy

I love this pic....this is the 'great mom..you won $6.50..thats awesome...glad you woke me up cheering for $6.50, can I go back to sleep now...ugh'

This lasted 1.25 seconds...

I think we were scared here..hmmm

dont ask...dinosaurs? who knows..we thought it was cool at that moment...

he always sleeps through the fun stuff!

me and my BEAUTIFUL momma...and the postman

My stepdad HAD to have this $90 helicopter...he probably already crashed it into the wall by now...hmm I need to ask my mom...seriously....

I need to work on my posing skills...michelle...stick.head.in.hole.so.it.looks.real...duh!

and what is the fair without some games...this one is old school...i love it...so we played...

he watched...prayed that we won him some of those lovely stuffed animals they have at those fairs..the ones you hold on to FOREVER...hehe

here we go!

you dont even want to know how much these little things cost us...ha! oh well...it was all for the fun...and the smile on my little man's face made it all worth it!

He had the death grip on these things...dont you dare take these fishys from me...


Thanks mom and Al...we had a blast!! xoxo

U...C....LLLLLLL....AA!

Yeah! It's that time of year...FOOTBALL time...I actually LOVE football...I know...call me crazy..not as much as I love watching basketball...but I love football because we get season tickets to UCLA every year with our good friends and its alll about the pre-game, catching up, drinking beers, bbqing and good old fashion tailgaiting...I love it. And I love that Tyler's very first football game is a UCLA one...hehe....H hates it..he wishes it was USC....sorry babe! :) Oh...and it happened to be the day USC lost...we listened to the game on the way to the Rose Bowl...I was elated...H..not so much... :) Anyway....we had a blast...so different this year because we all have kiddos...oh the days where we used to party super hardy...haah

John and Abby :-)

Tyler wasn't quite sure what to think of all the noise...

Right after this he fell asleep...don't ask me how...it was SO loud in there...we made it to half time!! This was a late game ...started at 7:15...next time maybe we will make it through the whole game! :) So fun!

san diego continued...

So I found more pictures of our trip down to San Diego for Denyce's Bachelorette Party and Bridal Shower....H and T came along...well...because T STILL won't take a bottle..joy...anyway...here are some more pictures of our fun little trip!

This is funny because about 5 years ago...Heath and I went on our FIRST trip to San Diego together and we went to a Padres game then came here....where we ended up spending...oh about 8 HOURS...yes...8...on a Sunday...we both had to work the next day...probably drank about 8 beers each...wow..those were some fun times...we couldn't even remember where it was...here we are walking in gaslamp and we see it...classic...now we have a baby at Dick's....oh and the bartenders name was Heath too...I wanted to run in and see if he still worked there...but we decided against it this time..lol...
