Anniversary Part 2

On Saturday night, Tom took me to 333 Pacific, a new restaurant in town.  It was one of the best places we've ever eaten.  The service was great, and the food was fabulous.  The prices were what one would expect at such a nice place, but definitely worth it!  I would highly recommend this place to anyone who's in the area.

The restaurant is under all of those new condos they built by the pier.

I managed to catch the end of the sunset.  It was gorgeous.

After dinner we had a nice stroll on the pier.  What a wonderful night that I was treated to.

Happy Anniversary

It was 11 years ago today that Tom and I were married.  We have been so blessed to have a beautiful, smart daughter, a wonderful family and great friends.  We are thankful for all that God has done in our lives.

Last night during our normal Friday night gathering Tom surprised me with some flowers and a cake.  I am so lucky to have him!

We shared this beautiful cake with all of our friends.

Easter Dinner

We shared a delicious dinner with our friends, Lou, Brian & Michelle and the kids. I made ham, garlic mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, rice pilaf and broccoli. Tom baked some yummy bread, and Michelle brought some gingerbread and chai.  It was a great night.

Michelle, Brian, Tom and Lou enjoy the meal.  If you look closely, you'll see yellow name cards on the table. Kelly wanted to make these.

The kids enjoyed their meal at the coffee table.

Dressed Up for Easter

Before heading to church Sunday morning I made Kelly pose for a few pictures. The sun was in our eyes, but the flowers were so pretty....

Praise Report

Many of you know that we have been waiting for Tom's new assignment, as his job in Coronado is coming to an end.  Well, today we finally found out that Tom will be assigned to Miramar. He will have to commute, but we will be able to stay in Oceanside!  God is so good and we are ecstatic about the news. Thank you to all who have been praying for us. God answers prayers!

Balboa Park

Tuesday was free museum day at Balboa Park, so we headed down to San Diego with our friends. Even though the Museum of Natural History was packed (spring break is in full swing), we managed to have a good time.  Tom was even able to "escape" from work for a little while to meet us at the park.  We also checked out the botanical gardens and ate lunch at the Spreckels Amphitheater.  It was a fun, though exhausting day!

Our little girl's getting so big!

Annie, Kelly and Emma are great buddies.

Couldn't help but post this picture of Tom pointing to the sign.

He sure is fabulous!!! (at least I think so!)

Tom explains how the swinging pendulum works when we were at the Museum of Natural History.

"Lemonade"

On Wednesday Kelly's second grade class performed the musical, "Lemonade".  It's a cute story about a bunch of fairy tale characters who are having a bad day.  Kelly played the part of Little Bo Peep and Jack's mother.

You can see Chicken Little and Little Red Riding Hood on either side of Kelly. There's also Mother Goose, Rapunzel and some piggies on the right.

Our Little Performer

Kelly did a great job with her lines, but our shy girl would not look up while she was speaking or singing.

The music teacher, Mrs. Ward told us how hard our little performers worked to learn their parts.
