Family Home Evening

This Monday night we went out on the town. The town of Pacific Grove, that is. Pacific Grove is right next to Monterey and it's known as America's last hometown. It has a cute little main street lined with little shops. A hardware store, a market, a post office, antique shops, ice cream parlors, a library, etc. Plus it's right on the beach. We live on the border of Monterey and PG. It's a really nice, quiet town to live in. We stopped by the Farmer's Market and I bought a bag of almonds to use in homemade granola. Then we waled around downtown for a little while before going to the movies.
This is the little Lighthouse Cinemas theater. We saw Race to Witch Mountain. It was pretty good. Bonus: Monday night is free popcorn night!


We had the whole theater to ourselves so when Jessica woke up we just walked around the theater with her till she fell asleep again. She loves going to the movies.

All bundled up to go into the chilly night!

Oh those eyes! Those are definitely momma's eyes. I miss Monterey, but glad you're taking advantage of it while you're still there. :)

I am finally blogging about our big trip to Hawaii last month. It was our 3rd anniversary and our dear friends, the Barnums, said we could come visit them anytime we wanted....so we did! Here are a lot of pictures, in no particular order: On the actual day of our anniversary, April 19th, Hank and I left the baby with a sitter and hit the town by ourselves. Since I wasn't a fan of the whole snorkling thing, we took a submarine ride to get a good view of the sea life. Yes, that is a real sea turtle in the real ocean, 100 ft underwater. I snapped this picture out my window. The view of Waikiki from our sub before we went under. The flag at the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. It has been raised to half mast everyday since the memorial was erected. Hank helping raise the flag first thing in the morning. "Give me gum gum, dumb dumb." Us and the Barnums at the Temple.

So Sleepy . . .

So, we may be terrible parents, but we thought this was so funny. Jessica wouldn't take an afternoon nap today and by dinnertime she was exhausted. She was so tired that she couldn't even chew her food. The best part was that Hank could not stop laughing at her and it was keeping her awake. This video was much longer, but I cut it down...because watching a baby fall asleep may not be as interesting to you as it was to us.
