Big Brother

Yahoo!  Big Brother started on Sunday and I admit I am a fan.  Actually I usually watch most of the Reality shows.  This Big Brother has started off pretty well--I think Brian may have sunk his ship by trying to pull off the Dr. Will scenario way too early in the show--we'll see tonight.  I also love, love Flipping Out!  Jeff is an uncontrollable, control freak but amazing at flipping homes.  His style is awesome! 

Finale

So, the decision is in and Jesse has won DeAnna's heart.  I think I was pulling for Jason however, I think both DeAnna and Jesse have adventurous spirits and that really sealed the deal.  I'm not disappointed in her choice but I do feel bad for Jason.  Either of the guys are great even Jeremy was a great guy!    

Bachelorette Finale!

Oh my good gosh, the finale is only about four and a half hours away.  I so hope it is good and not a big disappointment.  I think I read there is suppose to be an additional surprise tonight, could it be Jeremy?  We'll see!  Idiot that I am, I plan to tape it so I can replay it, just in case I miss some small detail--crazy I know.

Happy Fourth of July!

Fourth of July breakfast---waffles with fresh strawberries and whipped cream---Yummy!

On Friday we went to Fashion Valley! Jake finally got to do Build a Bear (he decided on a Cheetah). Every time we would go to the mall Jake would ask to do Build a Bear and I would promise him that we would do it when we had more time. Sadly, the Build a Bear closed at our mall and Jake was disappointed that he never got to build a bear. Happily, the store is still in Fashion Valley  and Jake got to build a bear. It is really fun, the stuffed animals are darling and the little outfits to dress them in are adorable. I highly recommend it and can't wait to build a bear with little Ella.

Sweet Ella wakes up happy!

We went to the Del Mar Fair on Monday! I seriously don't think I've been to the fair in 10 years, maybe longer and ya know what it really hasn't changed! Except there are way less animals and the outside garden exhibits, didn't they use to be inside? And, I was probably the typical Fair Goer Sucker, tried the barbaqued turkey leg, it was not so good. Tried some of the fried crap and the soft serve ice cream cones not creamy enough. Went to see the Tuff Trucks and Jake rode the kiddie rides after all this fun are we going to start a new family tradition and take Jake and Ella to the fair every year?

Drum playing with Uncle Jer on Sunday night!

Last thursday Dana met Amber in Chino Hills to bring Jake down for the week. We're happy he's here. Ben, Amber and Ella Arrived on Sunday afternoon. We have lots of activities planned for the Fourth of July week.
