Month of May; Mostly

Since moving to California, a lot has happened. Ryan has done a fantastic job of writing fun new things, while I have been not so good. I will try to be as brief as possible by using mostly pictures and movies rather than words.

Mothers Day:

Ryan made me the traditional omelet, with sausage and bacon inside, for breakfast. It was AMAZING!!! The Elder's Quorum provided all sorts of goodies for the sisters in our ward for after church. Relief Society was supposed to get out 15 minutes before the end of church so we could enjoy our snacks. While in reality, we got out late and the Primary children were immensely enjoying the treats while waiting for their mothers. So funny!



One of Eliza's new favorite games is to clear off the bookshelves. She sees me clearing off the desk, table, and counters, so she figures she will help.


Eliza outgrew her baby carrier and now has a big girl car seat. Amazon Mom is AMAZING! Thanks to Jennette for the suggestion of which car seat to get.

Ryan's brother Woody and his wife, Jill, came to stay with us for a weekend. Though they weren't here for long we did head up to the Hollywood sign and even got to go to The Queen Mary, one of the most luxurious cruise-liners in her day. Thanks for coming out-laws!




Our city Torrance had an Armed Forces Celebration for a weekend. Eliza got her face painted, a balloon, a dog tag, sat in an Apache helicopter, saw a live hawk and owl, and had a blast looking at all the fun people everywhere.
