Vday lovin'

This year Valentines "DAY" was pretty much a three day long extravaganza, heck with four girls in the family and all--- lets' just say James is a busy guy! ;)
It wouldn't be vday without some Welsh Valentines Bark!

gotta have your standard "heart lunch"

Violet's valentine creations



Penelope handmade 24 of these beauts

and of course mom had to get in on the action too

snuck in a little  SB Film Festival action...

James took all 3 girls to a daddy daughter dance
at our church ocean hills and he surprised them each with a
necklace. The three wishes symbolizes his "three" little girls.
xo







Penelope wanted a special "do" for her hair so we did a blowout

its soooo long when its straight!







we did our date night the day before Valentines 


dinner at Babarenos

and we caught a dance show featuring Isabella at Center Stage Theater

there she goes!




finished the night off at Joes and found this gem...

surprise baskets for the morning!

and this is the best way for me to spend Vday

love ya'll!

Welshes do snow

In February we went away for the weekend with some friends of ours to Big Bear.
We had so much fun with the Zavala families!
Love these families so much.
There was plenty of sledding (right in our back yard), snowman making, snow angel making, yummy cooking and hanging out. It was super bowl weekend so of course that pretty much dominated most of our Sunday, but what better place to eat and watch football than a cozy cabin in the snow!
I love that we actually got some snow in Southern California this year, and that we had a chance to enjoy it with friends.
So fun!
