Facebook and Blog Update

Facebook has made me a REALLY bad blogger! Sorry to you all who don't use it :) And if you don't use it, you should, because it's fun! Anyway, last weekend we went whale watching in Dana Point, CA. We ended up following three grey whales up the coast. It was amazing! Luckily we had stopped by Target just before we got there and picked up the Nikon zoom lens for my camera.


We ended up going to WalMart that evening and purchasing everything we needed to make a bonfire on the beach and make smores. It was a little too chilly for the kids so we didn't stay long. But we did have a great time. I've never been so frightened by flaming, flying marshmallows in my whole life. A 2 year old with a skewer is a bad, bad idea. We stayed the night at a hotel and left early (well, early for us!) the next morning to head over to Pomona, which was about an hour's drive from the beach. We went to the LA County Irish Music Festival, which was also a blast. However, the best (and most embarrassing) part was when Ian spotted two midgets (is that politically correct? Little people?) He asked "Are those leprechauns?"

I know everyone has issues on their plate, but seriously, who wouldn't be able to forget about them temporarily with whales, sunsets and beaches like that? I can't believe it took you so long to move out there....and I'm insanely jealous of you for being gutsy enough to do it! But....remember us po' folk out here in nowheresville and come visit us soon!
