Disneyland 2009

I just wanted to share some of the photos that I took during our two days at Disneyland. We all had a blast except for the way busy day on Sunday! It was super crowded. Jesse got to see Goofy on Sunday, which was the best part. We finally found him after a day and a half of looking. It made Jesse's day! He loved Minnie and Mickey and Pluto too! The only bad part was that Jesse started getting a fever early Sunday morning, but as long as we kept the Motrin in him he was fine. He was able to enjoy himself and so did we. Next time we go back, he will be at least 45 inches or taller, that way he can ride all the rides.
We are so thankful that we were able to see all Randle's family in the area. Lee and Jeannie, Erik and Nikkie, David and Rita, Mark, Cristina and baby Bela, Margie and Jerry and Lesley and John. It was so much fun, the weather was great and I can't wait to go see them again!

Jesse's Party!!

We had a little party for Jesse on Saturday the 7th of March with all his little cousins. He had so much fun! This year was a lot funner than last year in the sense that he was so excited to see his cousins and open his presents. He got a lot of money this year, he was telling people that is what he wanted, but he called it his "Shamu Money". I will post pics of our California trip and you can see how much fun he had.

Hard Times but Good Times...

Well this year had been kind of rough, but yet still has had it wonderful moments. My hard times have been turning 28. I dredded turning 24 and now just 28! I keep thinking, if I feel this way at 28, how will I feel at 68? I hope at 68 I am dancing Salsa and am active as ever! I have alot to be thankful for. Randle and I both still have jobs, which so many are out of these days. The hospital in Evanston where I work has cut everyones hours becuase of the slow time of year, no body wants to meet their copays again! I know I dont! I can still go up everyweek and work, they have just limited me to 16 hours a week, which I am lucky is better than ZERO! So in order to save money and watch more of what we spend, I have been making homemade bread every other week, so if any of you home make anything else that could help save money, please share!!
Last week Jesse was sick, with what seemed like food poisoning. This week I have been sick. Of course I got sick over the weekend and didnt want to go to the ER, (dredded copay) so waited to call the Dr. on Monday. I had the nasty respiratory bronchiolitis, sorethroat and could not breathe. Jesse was so sweet, he laid with me on one side and Lilie on the other side with three quilts on top of me. They were both trying to keep (or should I say GET) me warm. Everytime I would cough he would kiss me on the head and ask me if I was alright. He treated me like I treat him when he is sick. He was so gentle and kind. Now that I am feeling much better, minus the cough that everyone stays with you for weeks, we are getting ready for Jesse's b-day party this Saturday. I didnt mail out invites, because, well, I didnt fell good. So I am just letting everyone know you are welcome to come over for cake and ice cream. We are just keeping it to that because we have saved to take Jesse to SeaWorld and Disneyland for his birthday. We fly out the 12th of March to Orange County. We will then drive to San Diego and stay with Randle's cousin Lesley. On the 13th ( Jesse's b-day) we are spending it at SeaWorld. I have got on there webiste and shown Jesse the dolphins and shamu. My mom printed a pic out of Shamu so that he knew about him. We will then spend the 14th, 15th, and 16th with Lee and Jeannie, Randle's aunt and uncle in Covina and do Disneyland the 14th and 15th. I am hoping that we can take Jesse to the Ocean before we come home. I think he will love it. I will post pics when we get back. We are all so excited, except Randle, he hates Disneyland. I think otherwise this year, I think he will have more fun with Jesse this time.

I hope that you are all well and doing great! Here are some pics that I took for fun of Jesse yesterday...Enjoy! He also loves having pics taken with Lilie!
