Tailgating Party

I decided to have a tailgating party for my son Rock at one of his favorite spots in Los Angeles. He loves the Griffith Observatory but having an actual birthday there is not ideal, until I saw a blog post (somewhere, I know I'm sad I couldn't find it!) of a wedding, where their dessert station was behind an old vintage truck, which was just SO cute! When I saw that post it just made sense to me, and it solved my problem--Eureka! I can have a tailgating party at the Griffith! I also loved the idea of people being able to visit the Griffith while they're already there.

Rock's count down...

PJ scoped the place out to get that magical parking spot I asked for :)

Great pals

Goodie bags for the kiddos

For it being cold (thankfully NO rain) it was a good turn out

He had a great time, can't you tell?

We were blessed to see cousins that we haven't seen for 20 years!

I can't believe he is 5 years old (officially on 4/11)! We LOVE this guy SO much, God is TOO kind in loaning him to us. Thank you Lord for this precious gift.

Prescott Arizona

Last week we enjoyed ourselves in Arizona with our lovely friends the Nepo's. We even sang happy 1/2 birthday to Story and gave her a little gift. It all worked out.

Cute Kingston who won my heart when he was trying to protect Story. I love him!

Opening her gift

Window shopping in their cute-seee "downtown"

A highly recommended Nepo spot. Pretty darn good, I must say.

A scrumptious breakfast/lunch before our long way home. Haven't beenhere since Virginia. Their cat fish was SO good!

A blessed time of fellowship and hanging with the lovely Nepo's. I miss them already but God has them there for a great reason. Hopefully they'll come back home in a few years and not stay there permanently!
