Feb 24th-Visit the Becks in SB

As a resolution to see his granddaughter Hanna more often (and to keep up before she gets too much smarter), my dad invited me and Alaina to visit the Becks on the last weekend of February.
We started it off with a quick dinner at the new Bob's Big Boy in West Covina, and then the three of us headed on our journey up north.

Hanna talked our ear off when we arrived; showing us her room, her baby brother's future room, and telling us about her calendar which marks how often she doesn't wet the bed.

In the morning, my dad and sis and I got some doughnuts and chilled in a plaza fair across the street. When Hanna got back from dance class, we went for a lengthy, breezy, adventurous walk to see the butterflies, eat lunch, and hang out in the park.

I have some photos from our adventures, but Alaina has some that she has made look very pretty and you can see those here.

Dad and Uncle Tim go to the Buick Invit. in SD

On February 6th, I took a drive down to SD for a family visit. My dad and Uncle had just returned from the Buick Invitational in La Jolla. Here's my dad's report on the event:




After my uncle headed back home, I hung out with my family and we were just our normal selves. Taking silly pictures, snacking, and eating ice cream.

The next day, I went to a shower for my friend from high school, Syreeta, with my mom. My mom is doing the flowers for her wedding-we had a lot of fun.

Olivia Morales's 1st birthday!

On a beautiful Saturday in Whitter, I took a drive to Michigan Park to celebrate Olivia Morales's 1st birthday.
The park was packed. At least 5 other birthdays were taking place, I heard Ricky had to get there at 4 am to hold a spot!
I sat and ate with Grandma and Uncle Joel (Huera cooked!) and visited with Auntie Becky, Lisa, and the rest of the girls. There was a magician/face painting clown, cake, and lots of gifts.

Olivia fell asleep during the gift opening (or modeling session by her dad) and everyone had a good time. Perfect day for a party in the park!

In case you haven't heard...

Friday morning we got the official news: two boys on the way. Upon learning the news, Leesa's mom asked her dad, "so, they saw the wieners?"

A Very Campa Christmas

The official Campa family (Beck family missing Leesa) celebrated a "Happy New Year" Christmas on January 2nd in San Diego. There was a lot of food, a lot of gifts, and a whole bunch of love and laughter.
Alaina posted her official family pics to her flickr site.
And hopefully will post more candid shots up soon.

This Christmas Eve we celebrated at Auntie Becky's. It was wonderful to see everyone, eat, and eat some more!
The Campas San Diego drove up for the occasion and then picked up Auntie Barbara to celebrate a lazy Christmas day in San Diego.
Here are some of the pics taken with my camera of all the cousins on Xmas eve.
Alaina took some fun candids of the Campas which I am sure she will post up soon.
