As many of you know, Wade, Noah and I recently spent a long weekend in Southern California. It was Noah's 2nd plane excursion. He loved every minute of it. And he made a great travel companion. The weekend consisted of a day at Universal Studios. (Just mere weeks before the backlot went up in flames.) Noah's fist real roller coaster ride. Can you believe he is tall enough for roller coasters? I wasn't tall enough until at least junior high, and I'm not exaggerating. And two days on beautiful Catalina Island. Here's some pics from our closest thing to a vacation this summer....



Noah and Mommy at City Walk in LA - Hard Rock
This is as close as we got to the restaurant. So many fabulous restaurants, Hard Rock didn't have a chance.

Catalina Harbor and the city of Avalon


Garabaldi (Orange Fish) that live in the Pacific waters off Catalina.

Our first entry...


So as is said, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em...

And thanks to my friend Sarah, I have decided to try my hand at blogging. And what better subject than my beautifully perfect family. (PS - Sarah set up's not as easy as you led me to believe. You may be getting a few Help! emails...)

I hope only to acheive the greatness of my two favorite blog sites:
* NZ And USA Baby
* 4 Little Princesses

Enjoy!
