Happy New Year!

Last night, our friends came back again to visit and invited another friend over. While the adults were enjoying their Feast of the Seven Fishes, we played hard.

And, made chocolate chip cookies.

Here's our toast.

More hiking on the bluffs

Today, we woke up and texted a few friends to see if we could get someone to join us at the bluffs. Camille hasn't been there in a long time. Luckily, even though very last minute, one of our friends said YES, even though yesterday, we took that friend on a crazy chase to find the "right" hike.

Jordan did a great job, running, walking the dogs and he fell a few times, but to be expected.

G loves J and hugged him a few times.

Third Street Promenade

Last night, we went to Third Street. We walked around and window shopped and listened to music/watched performers. I asked Mama if we could go in this store to see if they make one of these dresses in my size (Betsey Johnson). No...:(

Here is Jordan on Daddy's shoulders at the small football field trying to make a goal.

Jordan and I are watching a 70 year old lady dance to a variety of music.

I wanted an ice cream and picked this one. Of course, Jordan wanted one, too. Can you tell how much he loves it?

Gym Class with Mama

This week, Mama took Jordan to gym class! Because of the holiday, Jordan was the only one there! So, he had a private "lesson".

They covered "soft" and "hard".

Jordan loves it!

And, particularly loves bubble time.

Hiking!

Today, we headed out for a hike at Point Dume. One of Mama's faves. We went when I was Jordan's age. For Mother's Day. Mama forgot exactly how to get there, but after a few missed turns, we found it. Only 8 parking spaces. All full. Instead, we climbed up Corral Canyon Road. 5 miles up with lots of turns.

My "boy"friend and his family gave up on us. Too bad because we had such a good time. Don't blame them though, it was quite a ride.

Our other friends didn't give up on us. They found their way, even after taking an unanticipated detour to pick up their two other friends. Jordan loved climbing.

And so do I, but Mama was just a little uncomfortable with this move.

Friends...

Yesterday, Nyla came over after gymnastics camp. She "read" some Disney stories to me while we munched on popcorn.

At night, we went to Merrick's house to enjoy some holiday cheer.
