Grandma's Birthday!

It was Alan's Grandma Dunn's birthday on Saturday. Some of his Aunts, Uncles, and cousins came into town on Friday and we had a birthday dinner for her. Happy 83rd Birthday Grandma!

A Lot To Be Thankful For

We had a great Thanksgiving at Alan's parents house in Bakersfeild. It was a great day with some of his family. We really do have a fun & funny family.

She is too cute...and knows it.

Six little monkeys in the bed. Ok, so I don't really get this let me explain it to ya. So the girls were watching a chick flick...and you know the boys could not watch it with us so.... I guess they felt more manly watching a disney movie? Hmmm...nope, I still don't understand. :) At least their cute.

I love Kung Fuuuuuu

I know your impressed by our sheer awesomeness!
Hiiiiiyaaa
Sorry if you haven't seen Kung Fu Panda, you probably won't get the whole awesome thing.

We went to the Huntington Garden, it was beautiful and we had a lot of fun. In fact I think Alan was surprised at how fun it was. He wasn't too excited about going, but he's a great hubby, so he said we could go because I wanted to. But it was a great day, followed by some yummy food at the Old Spaghetti Factory...mmmm

This is where the European art collection, I loved it :) It was also on an episode of Alias...I knew you were wondering.

I wish we had our own personal photographer to follow us around so we could actually get decent pictures of us together.

Don't worry there is no charge for awesomeness...

The Berthiaume's D-Day

Sorry, there haven't been very many posts of late. We have been busy! Man who knew so much went into moving almost half way around the world? I didn't...yep I can be naive...I know your shocked right? :) Well, there are a lot of things we'd like to do before we leave sunny CA, which our list is to long (and expensive) to actually conquer before we go, but we are going to do as much as we can. So this past week we went down to the Discovery museum in Santa Ana. It's pretty fun, we of course were like the oldest people trying out the exhibits :) But it doesn't take a lot of time so we decided hey we're like less then 10min away from Disneyland...so this is a picture story of our Discovery/Disney day...or D-day.

Alan air guitaring to Chicago (the band not the musical) Um...I love it. At least we entertain the other people on the free way, or we just scare them I'm not sure which :D

Alan is using his mad skills with "The Force". I know Jayden would appreciate this. Speaking of...this week I was watching some kids at church and we were talking about our favorite songs. All of them were typical little kids church songs, except for one...and oh Cari I knew your kids were cute, but Jayden took it up a notch. He was the last one to speak up about his favorite song but he was very excited to tell us that his favorite song is the Darth Vader melody. Yep and then proudly sang it for us, you know the Da Da Da Daaaaa. It was so cute.

Alan doing an impersonation of...a raptor I think?

Me inside of a big kaleidoscope that had tons of little fingerprints on it... pretty sweet :)

Alan and kiddo there apparently didn't get enough candy during Halloween.

We went into CA Adventures for only one ride, but it's the sweetest ride there...that's right Toy Story Mania. It might be Alan's new obsession. I like this pic, mickey mouse just got a whole lot cuter.
