Marc & Daisy's Wedding!

Ginny, Missi and I drove up to the Bay area to help celebrate the nuptials of our friends Marc & Daisy. We had a great time.

Ginny had a lot of fun meeting her unkies Marc, Suju, Matee, Mike and Thai. She also got to see Aunties Anh and Karen, and Unkies Brad, Van and Chris, again. She surprised me by asking why Unkies Van, Thai and Suju were a little crazier than the rest. I told her that it was cuz of the sauce. She asked "Sauce? What kind of sauce?" I replied, "It ain't apple sauce." She then exhaled a knowing "Oohhhhhh."
;-)

Thankfully, she became distracted with the DJ. In response to him she yelled out "Ohh Yeaahhh!", with a Filipino accent. That darn DJ!

I'm just kidding, Ginny didn't say all those things. But I'm sure she was thinking them.

Below are pix from the ceremony and reception. As you can see both were absolutely beautiful! Congratulations to the happy couple!

Disney time fun!

Over the past couple visits to the Disney Resort Ginny has ridden Alice in Wonderland, the Fun-Wheel, Sleeping Beauty's Carousel, Heimlich's Choo Choo Train, and Flik's Flyers. She's becoming a pro! Here are some pictures from her last couple of visits. Good times!


Swim Time!

Ginny loved her swim lessons. Here's some pictures from her first lesson when she was in the water with just me, and her last lesson swimming with mom. Every week she was more and more comfortable. It sure was fun! Ginny even enjoyed getting dunked!

Hey Arnold-Stop Lying to the People!

Our beloved governor thinks that people are confused about Proposition 1a. Apparently, he doesn't think it includes $16 billion in tax increases and that the tax increases are just propaganda used by the right.

Read the full story for yourself:

Hmmm....maybe he shouldn't have made all of those education cuts, and took the time to learn to read!

PS-In case you haven't figured it out, I am voting NO on Proposition 1a (and the others too). Although a rainy day fund and a spending cap are great in the abstract, Proposition 1a continues the tax increases that just went into effect for 2 additional years.

Ginny and the Easter Bunny!

Ginny got to meet the Easter Bunny last weekend! She was all smiles and enjoyed going back home to tell Mickey and Mulan about her encounter with the human sized furry bunny. Mickey and Mulan got wary looks on their faces after learning of this surprise evolutionary development. I think the next time Mickey and Mulan encounter a bunny they'll make sure that it isn't rollin' with Peter Cottontail.
HAPPY EASTER!!!

Ginny's Easter Portraits

Ginny was the perfect model at her Easter portrait session. Of course, it helps having Mommy, Auntie Em, Dadda, and the Sears photo-guy hopping around and making weird noises to get her to smile.

We also went and visited the Easter Bunny and got a great picture with good ol' Peter Cotton Tail. We ran into him along the bunny trail, hipping and hopping as he waited for Easter to make its way. That photo will have to wait for another blog-post. Until then, Happy Easter to everyone, and enjoy the pictures!

Regulators! Mount up.

That's from Young Guns, it's a classic. Pretty random I know but that's probably a good theme for this pictorial sampling of the last month. It's been awhile since our last post and it's been an exciting and productive one for Ginny.

A month ago she learned to stay sitting up by herself. She visited Seaworld with her cousin Elliott and Uncle Dex and Auntie Jess. Check out those series of pictures and you'll get a nice shot of the two of them dripping wet after riding the Journey to Atlantis coaster.

She met Brad and Karen for the first time and got to hear how her Unkie Brad can make a slow cooker meal that will last them a week. She learned to master bouncing around in her jumper. She also got to taste something other than milk- bubble gum! She got a little bug a week or so ago and she got prescribed some bubble gum flavored medicine.

Ginny also got her first picture with Minnie Mouse (we tried to get one in an earlier visit when her Aunt Emie took her to Minnie's house in ToonTown, but that didn't work out). You'll also see a bunch of pix with Ginny playing it cool with her awesome shades.

Finally, Ginny got to meet 5 other babies all at once at the Baby Reunion! The Reunion got together most of the parents (and of course our babies) from the Bradley Class Missi and I took. It was a lot of fun and we were able to get a group photo of the baby attendees. Of course, true to our teacher's prediction there was one baby crying during the photo shoot and it happened to be Ginny. She's still a cutie.

So, the next couple weeks are gonna be exciting and we hope to be more proactive about posting. Here's a quick teaser of some of our anticipated post topics: "The Easter Bunny-Impervious to Spit Up?", "Ginny's First Swimming Lesson!", and "6 Months Old and Solid Food!"
