Playdate - Alf Museum/ Memorial Park

Today we went to the Alf Museum and Memorial Park in Claremont.
It was good to see familar faces from Mommy/Daddy and Me.
The museum was hot especially the ground floor.
That we didn't like very much.
Matthew seemed to be afraid at first, but he started warming up to the place.
I'm not sure if Joseph and Matthew really liked the place as interesting as it was.
We'll see if they ask me to go again.

Memorial Park was pretty cool.
We never been to a park with a wading pool.
The boys weren't really interested in going in the water.
King of a good thing because I forgot the bag with all of the boys extra clothes.
They basically sat and ate.
That's what my boys do best when we go out.
They get all the good stuff while all the other kids are playing.
While the other kids had fun in the water my boys played in the playground.
They love sand.

After lunch and playing awhile we said our good-byes.
We went to Trader Joe's before heading home.
The store was so refreshingly cool for a hot day like today.
There wasn't a lot of people in the store either.
We got some goodies and headed home to drop them off before heading over to Dominic's.

Heritage Park

July 3, 2009

We went to Heritage Park in Diamond Bar.
The kids had fun playing with sand.
It was a shame that Christopher and Jacob could not join us.
There is always next time.
Photos here from the park and later that day at Esther's house.


I found a site... Animoto where they make music videos from your pictures.
It's really easy to do. I just made a quick one without much thought.

Metrolink

June 19, 2009


We took the Metrolink to LA Union Station.
We had lunch in Koreatown and then came back home.
The whole day wasn't all that great.
There was a certain person that just ruined the day.
If you think you are that person, you probably are not person.
Don't want to write anymore.
I don't want to dwell on it.
If you happen to take another trip I'll write more in detail.

La Habra Children's Museum

Children's Museum

May 30, 2009

The boys and I went to the Children's Museum.
I didn't get any really good pictures.
I didn't get many pictures period because my camera died on me.
I must remember to charge the camera battery or just lug the big digital SLR.

Joseph and Matthew really like the market place and model trains...
Joseph doesn't really like the dress-up area.
It's always so dark in there and it's just not his thing I guess.
Matthew doesn't seem to have much interest in it either.

They have a new permanant exhibit.
It is the Green 'N' Clean Energy Station.
It features an interactive car, fueling station, and gear wall.
Too bad I don't have pictures. Maybe next time.

Rowland Heights Park

Rowland Heights Park

Rowland Heights, CA 91748
626) 912-6774



Today was the last day of RACE Mommy and Me class.
We had our last day of class celebration at Rowland Heights Park.
The weather was kind of gloomy, but luckily no rain.

Hot Dogs ... the main dish for lunch.
Matthew ate the hot dog (just the meat), while Joseph ate the bun.
Matthew doesn't really like bread.
Joseph... I don't know he likes meat, but I guess not hot dogs.

They had fun in the sand and just plain running around and screaming.
Look Matthew and Kasey playing together.

It was nice to see Kathy, Sally (Kathy's mom), Lucas, and 7 week old Noah. So cute. I tried to take a picture of Kathy and Lucas together while Lucas was on the swing, but the pictures came out all blurry. Sorry Kathy. I did get a shot of baby Noah though.
