California Dreamin

Since we were not able to drive the motorhome to California, my son was nice enough to send me a plane ticket.


I left the Monday before Easter and had an absolutely wonderful time. My DIL Sarah is a teacher and it was her spring break so we had a lot of fun with April.  Thursday we went over to her sisters house. Jenny has a daughter that is 4 months older than April.  The purpose that day was to color Easter eggs.  They set up a small pool and then the kids colored the eggs using whipped cream and food coloring. 

Friday morning I was able to attend the YMCA's Good Friday Breakfast program.  When I worked there I attended many of these so it was good to see some of the people I used to work with.  It was at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles.  Here are a couple of pics of this beautiful historic hotel.

Saturday was spent with my daughter Stacy and her daughter Ciera.  Here is my oldest granddaughter holding my youngest.

Sunday was Easter and here is the cutest bunny ever.

My oldest granddaughter Ciera is getting married in September so I will be heading that way again. 



Sorry But I Had To Do It!!!

Cheerleading Competition

Our granddaughter is into cheerleading.  She has been going to the same gym since she was 5.  She’s now 10. Yesterday we traveled to Virginia Beach to see her compete.  We had done this a couple of years ago, but she’s now on 2 different teams so we wanted to see her “fly”.  That’s the term they use for those cheerleaders who get thrown up in the air.  Even though my heart was beating so fast, I watched as they threw her in the air and she then completed her stunt.
Savannah is the one on the left.


Now she’s in the middle.

On her other team, she doesn’t fly but she has a part in the routine where she does a couple of back hand springs and then blows kisses to the judges.

The teams both did real good on this day, however, they really messed up on Saturday and with a 2 day total they didn’t place very high.  But we had fun and enjoyed watching some of the other groups.
