The Foundation of My Diet

I inherited my dad's sweet tooth. (My first word was "cookie.") Most of the time I'm planning on when and how I'm going to get something sweet to eat.

If I were to draw out a Food Pyramid of Wifey, instead of fruits/ veggies/ grains at the foundation it'd have my 5 C's: cookies, cake, candy, crackers, and cereal. Anytime is a good time these 5 C's. Period.

My in-law's eat really healthy so it's very rare to find my "foundation" at their house. (Except cereal) While running errands yesterday we decided that we needed something sweet to eat after dinner. (YES!!) After sampling red velvet cake from Costco I was excited that I wasn't the only one who thought it was necessary to have since I didn't have cake on my birthday. It was one of the best cakes that I've had in awhile. Most of us had it again for breakfast this morning.

Bigger than father-in-laws!

Oh happy birthday to me... almost two months after the real thing.

Beach & Disney

Yesterday we spent half of the day at the beach. My attempts to not get horrifically sunburned are working. The spray sunblock works the best but I cannot get it off my skin... even three days after the first time I put it on.

Lil pup is doing great. He loves the weather and having a cool backyard to hang out in.

Getting ready to head to dinner and Disney.

Attempting a semi-family picture always has this result.

Heading to see the re-released Captain EO. Ummm... interesting show if you haven't seen it. Mix Star Wars with Labyrinth with Michael Jackson. You'll leave with a lot of jokes.

The boys

We ended the night with a special treat. I attacked a funnel cake while everything else chose icecream. I admit that I snuck a few bites even though I'm the icecream hater.

San Clemente Days 2 & 3

Getting ready to surf and, "shreddin' the gnar"

D helped out at Wy's waterpolo practice.

(Side note: he shaved his head earlier today)

D and Wy. Wy is the youngest on his team by at least 3 years. He does a great job keeping up with the 11 and 12 yr olds
