LA County Fair...a bit late

It's Wednesday, the sun is out and about, and it's time for the L.A County Fair to see

"El-Chupacabras"

Ok, so it's not "El-Chupacabras" It's a cow that was never treated for severe horn syndrome, ok so sever horn syndrome doesn't exist either. I felt like kicking a football through it's horns, for some reason i felt like buying a slingshot. But enough with the Cow, or at least I thought it was a cow.

Chely and I decided we should take our God-Daughter Fabiola to the L.A County Fair to enjoy the rides, food, the animals and many other thing's the fair had to offer. ~ Ismael

For me it was a way to see if Ismael could handle having a three year old in our care. Fabi is usually a little feisty girl. It's her way or the highway usually. Well not this day, she was a perfect little angel. Very quiet and sweet with us the whole time. Not once did she throw a tantrum. So this was great for Ismael as it just made it clearer to him that he still wants a little one soon. Plan failed!

Anyways, we did enjoy the hot sunny day at the fair and towards the end the three of us were ready to come home.

Here are a few pictures:

The car seat fit perfectly in our car... hmmm

Nino and Fabi having fun as corn
Maybe she'll grow up to be a Firefighter

It was so hot that Fabi enjoyed splashing water in our faces (we did not realize how hot it was going to be so we had to buy matching hats to help us keep the sun out of our faces)

And that's all :)

Happy Birthday Rocio

Today is my BCF's (best cousin forever) birthday.

She's the coolest, funnest, trustful and count on anything type of cousin. She joined the air force and moved to Kansas so I do not see her that often anymore. I haven't even been able to have a conversation with her for the past 3 months since she got deployed to Qatar. Today I have not heard from her through email, so for this reason Ismael and I made her a quick b-day video clip.

Pookie I hope you enjoy it, especially the end and we wish you the very best. We shall celebrate when you come back.

WARNING: I am not a professional singer but it is sung with lots of love

Meet Tiny

I would like a dog like this only if I had a huge yard.




This is Tiny, my brother's dog.

Isn't he cute:)

jack johnson video

So after many attempts to load the video of the cool concert we were unable to load them. For some reason we were able to load a few onto Chely's myspace page. So check 'em out if you like.

Happy Birthday Mom

Well what can I say about my mom.... She is absolutely the best!!

Spoils me when she can, makes me feel better when I am sick and loves me dearly as I love her.

Happy Happy Birthday!

Once again we love celebrating birthdays, even if it's a small BBQ with just us.

All of the grandchildren who sometimes drive my mom a little crazy. Who knows but maybe next year around this time she'll be holding a little one in her arms.

Jack Johnson Concert

It's Labor Day weekend and we're at Jack Johnson's concert in San Diego having some hot coke, cold burgers, and taking in the fact that you just got dragged to the Jack Johnson concert, but that's not what we're all here for; right ? I wasn't too exited about Jack Johnson but, there was plenty of music to enjoy throughout the almost 2-hour show. While it may not have been the most energetic concert I've ever attended, it did leave me feeling as though I had just spent almost two hours at a mellow beach party with some fun friends who played some mellow, cool music. Here's a cool video of the concert:

(unfortunately we are having trouble uploading our videos, as soon as we load them up we'll post to share)


The opening act Culver City Dub Collective with special Guest Paula Fuga were actually very good, they had a nice reggae jazz feel to their music that makes you wanna light up a spliffy; and by the smell in the air; I wasn't the only one. One complaint though, security there had very little control where we were sitting at because people kept walking down to the front hoping there were empty seats available blocking our exit from our isle which became very annoying after awhile because they refused to listen to security to clear the area. I swear security was no older than 21 years old weighing about a 1 buck 50. Here's a few more photos of the show...

After experiencing a Jack Johnson concert, Chely and I are looking forward to another night of mellow music, cold burgers, hot sodas and margaritas .....

Happy Birthday Dad

We celebrated my dad's 55th birthday today. The man that never lets me down and is always there for us no matter what. A responsible Husband and father that makes sure we are well taken care of.

In honor of his b-day I ofcourse gave him his favorite, Koi Fish. He loved them!

I Love my Dad more!!
