Tommy's Favorite Part: Didn't watch it.  Well he was in the room but I don't like he looked at the tv unless there was an animal on tv.
Some of his quotes:
"Baby elephant, so cute."
"Oooh tiger, mad"
"That monkey, so funny"

SoCal and DL here we come

It has felt like forever since we've been down to San Diego to visit my family!  Well we now have a plan, Spring Break 2012.  Owen will have 2 weeks off (instead of the usual 1 week).  I bought the airline tickets last week, so it's official!
We will also be going to Disneyland!!  It's been like 5 years since we've been there! Yes I'm having withdrawals!  We haven't booked it yet but will soon, it's gonna be huge!  It has to be right? It has been 5 years (compared to the every year trip, I grew up with).
Now if only I can encourage the consignment sale owner to have the sale before my vaca! ;)
