The Little Rascals

My boys were introduced to "The Little Rascals" the other day by their Aunty Kashia. To say the least, my boys LOVED it! It's probably because they could relate to those naughty little boys! My little Rylan especially loved the movie and took a liking to Alfalfa.

For the past couple of weeks, Fi Dan has been coming home and telling me that Rylan has been pretty sweet to some of the girls in classroom. And every time I ask him about it he just smiles and doesn't say anything. But sometimes I'll over hear him talking to his daddy. "Daddy, I saw a girl the other day. I was checking her out." WHAT?! Lol, anyway, when he watched The Little Rascals and saw Alfalfa serenading Darla, he was beaming from ear to ear. I knew what he was thinking, and then he said it out loud, "I'm Alfalfa". Here is a video of him singing like Alfalfa. He didn't know I was taping him!

Christmas 2015


Christmas was also a blast this year! I think just being around family makes a huge difference!
We're making it a tradition where the boys can pick one present and open it on Christmas eve. 

Boots from Aunty Jamie and family!!!






Thanks Anty Kalu!

Making cookies for Santa!

We love our daddy!
  

Look who came! Santa's footprints!

Christmas Morning!

Bikes for the boys! :)




Ahhh, my favorite Game! Sequence! Makes me miss Whitney!

Twinners!

The other twinners.




Lookie who I ran into! My long lost cousin Team! I met him once before so
it was good to see him/meet him. 

To Dominica and Back Again in 5 days

 
When Fi Dan and I decided that the boys and I were coming back for good, I secretly bought a flight back to Dominica and sneaky me bought the same flight back with Fi Dan. He had no clue that I had done it. And I was seriously going to keep it a secret. BUT, I forgot to sign out of his computer and he found out. :( None the less, it was great to fly and go see my hubby and spend a few days with him. It was GREAT!!!!
 
 
Flying over Texas.



My hotel room at the San Juan Airport.

Walking down the road by Fi Dan's apartment.

These girls were so nice and joined me for breakfast.




My dear friend Whitney's apartment. Made me miss her!!!!

They didn't give me a break at all. I hate mosquitoes!

Flying out of Puerto Rico.

Flying First Class. I LOVED it. I don't know if I can ever go back to coach.

What?! Dessert?!  yup, I am not going back.





 
So grateful I got a few days to myself and with just Fi Dan.

Thanksgiving 2014

 This Thanksgiving was so much fun! My sister, Kalu, and her little family came and spent the week here in Sacramento. So much fun!
 
But we started off with Elf on the Shelf coming to stay with us!
 
 
Here is Nenji and Rylan opening the mail with a letter from Santa, arriving "Pip the Elf"'s arrival.
A few nights later, Kalu and her family were here and we put up our Christmas tree!
Kashia and Makoto took charge and did a majority of the work.


 
 
That sneaky Pip! How did he get on the tree?



My baby Spencer being SO helpful!

Rylan sitting next to Pip...and trying really hard not to touch him.


Pip was flying all over the place and the kiddos freaked out every time they turned and saw him. Lol. So much fun. I even scared Kalu a few times.



Sending Uncle Ben and Aunty Marilyn a message.

Oh my goodness, these rolls were SOOOO yummy, made by yours truly.

I am so happy here because it took her 2-3 days to even look at me. I was the first one she came to!
I love her. She's such a doll!





 
 
 
We decided to do Spencer's birthday last minute because we wanted Kalu and her family to be here.



 
 
 
Happy Brithday my little Spencer!



 
I made the minions our of construction paper and also Spencer's name banner.
Kashia made the Happy Birthday sign.




 
This little potato has a habit of putting things over her head. Of course, right after I took the picture took the bag away.
