Our Little Roy isn't so Little anymore...

Congratulations to "Our Little Roy"
Class of 2009'
Roy and Rylee

My Uncle Joe, Aunt Joanne, Mom & Uncle Paul


Last night we all gathered the family to see our "little" cousin Roy graduate from Fullerton High School. Roy graduated with honors and a grade point average of a 4.0! We are proud of him. In August he will be leaving to join the US Air Force academy in Texas. I have seen my cousin mature and grow up so much in the Lord these years! I am so proud of him and his accomplishments. We're going to miss him terribly once he starts the Air Force after the academy, but he knows he has lots of love and family support back home! (Especially since he knows his cousin Christina will send him LOTS of care packages too!!!) We're so proud of you Roy, this journey in your life is just beginning, and remember God never said it'd be easy but He did promise He'll always be there for you! So always remember that regardless of what the future holds know you have a God who is with you wherever you go! He is your strength!!!!

Girls Weekend

Abby's Mini Vacation

Well today I said good-bye to my wonderful friend Abby Day! Abby spent the past five days with me visiting from Memphis, TN. It was her turn to come visit me in CA, since I had visited her in Memphis last August! :) We had a wonderful time! Friday we spent the afternoon at the LA ZOO. Abby LOVES the Zoo (like I love Disneyland). She has an annual pass for the Memphis Zoo. I wasn't a fan of the LA ZOO, I personally didn't think they had much of anything to see there. Most of the animals we're sleeping or no where to be found. I think next time I'll take her to the San Diego Zoo where we had thought about going the first time!, But had a change of plans. After the Zoo we went to Palm Dessert and did some shopping, since you know when you get any girls together we HAVE to shop!

Saturday morning we spent a few hours at my favorite place Disneyland! We really didn't ride much because Abby isn't too fond of the rides there. We rode Mr. Toad, Snow White, Star Tours and Pirates. We also watched the Aladdin Show at DCA (which has to be the best show I've ever seen by far at Disneyland!) I had invited my sister and Ryan for a FREE day at Disneyland but they passed it up for the Santa Ana Zoo! I suppose they had a great time anyway after seeing their photos :)


Our weekend was filled with lots of fun, we visited old friends for lunch, dinner and movies, and played some WII!!! And I lost count how many times we went to yogurtland. (I'll have to agree with Abby and say that is the place to be!!!! If you've never had frozen yogurt this is the place to have your first taste!!)

Time went by sooooo fast! But I was very happy that she was able to come and visit for a few days!
