We had another great week!!! where to start.... Well Kayla lost her first tooth and she was so excited about it, she wrote a note to the tooth fairy and all... Apparently the tooth fairy liked it cause she gave her $7... My mom says it is because of inflation in CA...HAHAHA she thinks she is so funny...
I have also started to potty train Wes.. So far we are not doing to hot but he has gone once on the big boy potty.. So not to much progress but he gets the idea...
As for our adventures, the 3 of us experienced Beverly Hills for the 1st time, and it was a blast. We didn't get much time to do the walk of fame or anything else but we got a few things in, but the main event, Wall-e at the El Capitan theater, was alot of fun... They had a live show before the movie that was so much fun, if you make it to Hollywood I highly suggest making a Disney movie at the El Capitan theater a must... We also hit Rodeo Drive, now I was loving that,(even if I don't have the money to shop there...) it was incredible to just watch people or walk into all the crazy expensive stores... Me and Letisha walked into, I think it was Versace, we were just browsing on the upper level when we over heard one of the ladies that worked there ask a customer if she would like a glass of wine or champagne while she waited for her dress to get taken in... Wow how would it be... So needless to say I love Beverly Hills I am def making a weekend out of it one day to do everything....
We have also been swimming like 3 more times this week which was a blast my kids are def water lovers... Kayla just jumps into the water like nothin now (of course she still has floaties) but she has a blast.. Wes is also getting a lot braver with the water, he likes to just float around on the boogie boards... (He no longer has a death grip around my neck when we are in the water)



We also went bowling last night, and can I tell you how much fun my kids are, oh my Wes has never really been bowling so that was an experience in itself.. He would roll the ball and turn around and say yes and give high fives, all the while Kayla was in the back ground cheering him on... Now Kayla she gets the concept now, but if she got any number of pins down she would get so excited, but when she got her strike she flipped... It was the cutest thing ever....
I went and saw The Dark Knight too, and I highly suggest you go see it,I think I have just found my all time favorite movie, Heath Ledger did an incredible job as the Joker...
Anyhow until next time we miss you all and hope all is well... And Happy 24th!!!
Loves Ambs, Kayla, and Wes

So since being in Cali we have had a some what of a busy schedule... We have gone to the beach and Big Bear, and we have also been swimming like crazy, as well as getting Kayla started in 1st grade, which she started today, and I am almost finished with my process of getting going with school, (I go in on Thursday for my assessment tests...) Oh yeah and we had a new addition to the family, Belle(our dog) had her puppies, sadly one died but We were left with an adorable little boy puppy that my Brother, Ryan, named Mooshu....
I can not tell you how great this last week has been, I thought maybe the fist few weeks would be very hectic trying to get going with schools, and getting unpacked, and adjusted. But it has been going really good.
The kids are adjusting nicely they are enjoying every minute of it, I think I might have created a couple of beach bums though...They love the beach... Wes thinks it is so cool to play in the sand and get his feet wet in the water and be pulled up as the water goes back. I will post a video so you can see what I am talking about, just as soon as I figure out how to do that... Kayla has fun searching for seashells, and running to the waters edge and screaming and running back up to try and escape the water... LOL they are just a riot to watch.... We also like just sitting on the back porch in the evening watching the sun go down...
And Me I am doing great, I still have my moments when I have a hard time but I have had more happy incredible moments then anything... It feels so good to be in this place in my life, I am so glad that I finally get to go to school and do what I want to do... And I can not tell you enough how much I love the beach, I could spend all day just lying there listening to the surf and just relaxing, I love to go and catch the sunset, I finally got to see a great sunset last night at Redondo beach with my friend Jen... it was incredible....
Anyways thats about it for now... I have to go get my little 1st grader from school....(oh my that just seems so unreal...)
I hope you are all doing well....

So we made it to Cali and it is slowly all coming together... On the way down we stopped in Bryce cannon and drove through Zions which was a new experience for me and it was all so beautiful... We had alot of fun... I def want to go back one day to do more hikes through Bryce. I think it would be so fun to do all the hikes out there...
So now that we are here we are just jumping into a busy busy schedule, tomorrow I am going to register for school at RCC and the kids are having a blast, keeping busy with swimming... We have so much planned for the summer, I am so excited... On the 19th we are going to the El Capitan theater in Beverly hills to watch Wall-E, we are gonna go to Sea world, Zoos, and we are going to the Circus, along with swimming lessons, and a million other little things we are going to be crazy crazy....
