Ten Percent

No this isn't a post about tithing, but me shouting my own praises a little bit. I joined WeightWatchers and I finally made my goal to lose ten percent of my body weight. Hooray!

At Work

Does it qualify as work if you are watching a James Bond movie at the same time?

Three Bathrooms

We have finally finished one of our house projects which was getting all the bathrooms patched and decorated. Three bathrooms what a fabulous blessing that came with our house.

P.S. Have you ever noticed how hard it is to take a picture of a bathroom?

FAT FOOT

As the Taffs say go big or go home. I think this might qualify. Check out Matt's latest sports injury. Now three weeks later I think he is almost back to normal.

A Discovery

Okay so this is the last vacation post for a while, I promise.

There are so many little things to discover on a Disney trip and this is one of our discoveries. In California Adventure one of the Disney animators hosts a 30 minute class on how to draw a famous Disney character. (The old school way not computer generation way, obviously). We happened upon the class to draw Mickey and here are the attempts we made.
I think we can tell who has the real artistic talent in the family. I'll stick to spelling.

One more thing . . . Did you know they have a princess beauty shop in Disneyland? You can actually get done up with a tiara and everything.

Suffice it to say the trip was a blast and I love the discoveries we made.

San Diego Zoo

As part of our trip we also enjoyed a visit to the famed San Diego Zoo. Something seems to happen to Matt when he gets a camera in hand at the zoo and so I have only blogged some of my favorites from the massive selection.
Look how cute these guys are.

This little buddy was just playing away right in front of the glass.

All I can say about him is what a ham.

I think this my favorite of all the zoo pictures. Sorry to wake you buddy.

Fuzzy wuzzy was a bear and fuzzy wuzzy had tons of hair. This was the only bear we could get to come out while we were there.

We loved the zoo and would highly recommend it if you are ever in the area.

California Adventure

Welcome to CALIFORNIA!

This is our shot from the Tower of Terror. I am a bit afraid of heights and I think I lost about three years of my life on this ride. It was very exciting, but I believe in this picture my eyes are definitely closed.

Who doesn't love an electric parade? These are just a couple of my favorites from the parade.
