Buskers in Burbank

After Church we went to Lunch at Sharky's in Burbank. From there we went to Target -- when I went back outside with Campbell to get a cart we were stopped by a lady who wanted to know if we were interested in getting C1 into pictures. We took her card(We called our in-the-biz friend to get her opinion).

After Target I took our bags to the car, when I got back I found these buskers in front of Target playing with gusto.

Pumpkin Cooper

Cooper lost his first tooth today. It was loose, and he decided to give it a yank at GTY and out it came. We put it into a polybox. It's odd that his first tooth out is on the top - I'm sure the others will come out it short order.

A Saturday Afternoon

The boys enjoy some time in the sun at our Sunday School party.

A Shady Rest

My dad takes a rest in the shade during our LA tour. We had lunch at Phillippe's, walked through the Bradbury - all our regular stops. Beautiful weather - sunny and not too warm.

What is this Stuff?

We found this odd clear cold stuff in sheets all over the back garden. The boys smashed it on the patio. I'm not sure but it could be ice. I'll need to check with my friend David in Canada to be sure.

Gymnastic Fun

Campbell gives his all on the bar. He loves the class, when Hugo is teaching. Today C1 did all the equipment, but did the best on the rings. He never does anything halfway - he tries his best to do what he is asked. Cooper's class is on a different day - so Cooper is playing wild shoot 'em Legos on the stairs.

The background music today is an 80s fest.

More Reasons to Love California

Our daffodils are coming up all over our garden. These past few weeks have been very warm, but they are calling for much cooler weather this weekend. We might have to close our windows.

Jay Enjoys Kristi's Birthday

Jay enjoys Kristi's birthday shake. She did not want it, so he had to eat it.

Clinton Walk

After our walk to the open house we stopped at McDonald's for lunch - Clinton style. We ate small - no frys or huge drinks. We learned from a local developer and friend, that a Bristol Farms market is coming to Valencia near our house (can you say Spa water?). He said that there is also some food coming close to GTY: Rattler's is a posibility, Jack in the Box, and Oats and Whey.

Ficketts Find Free Fun

Jumpy in the dirt, dry food, bland face painting, and no coffee. It wasn't the MB party, but we did expect a bit more for our nothing. It was free so it's hard to complain.


We walked down from our house to the event. Summer-like weather in February, 80 reasons why we love living in California.

An early Valentine

After the Villa I told everyone that we were going to get dinner. The family was thinking fast food, but I had another plan. My dad used to take us to the Malibu Sea Lion (NKA Malibunius Zalophus Californius), the restaurant is gone, but the building remains. It is now Duke's a seafood place from Hawaii. We had a great meal and a wonderful view of the waves and the sunset.

A Perfect Day in Malibu

We got tickets to come to the second week opening of the Getty Villa. We had a great day. The boys painted pots, and tried to spot gods on pots. They both were trying to spot snakes on the pots, and jewelery.
