Vanessa's 7th birthday!!

Yesterday was Vanessa's 7th birthday celebration. We had her party at the play house. Kids can run, hop, climb, scream (literally) & get all their energy out. She invited the girls from her class (1nd & 2nd graders) & the cake & presants & food was served in the castle theme room. Some of her presants included play hair dye (a favourite), Bratz kick-bike, a little chest with a lock to keep special things. She had lots of fun!
Here are some pix from my mobile..

Week-end beach

We had more beautiful spring weather... and one of our favourite places to go is to the beach. Here are some pix from my mobile.

Wii tournament at library

Libraries here have different activities organized for kids.. from movie showings, to theater performances, to Wii tournaments- all for free. We happened upon one the other day, and Lisa & Victor were with. And I got 1 hour to stroll the library & find all kinds of interesting books (which I don't usually have a chance to do with 4 energy-filled kids).
