Birthday Party for Aria and Me

Tonight my bff Mary and her husband David along with my sister Jocelyn and her husband Vicente and my brother  Randy and his wife Barb hosted an early birthday party for me and for Aria. They made a wonderful grand dinner complete with bbq ribs, tri tip, chicken, mashed potatoes, bbq beans, mac and cheese, cole slaw and more. They had a beautiful Paradise cake one of my faves from King's Hawaiian bakery. As usual Jocelyn had us in stitches making us laugh so hard. Thanks to all of my family for having an early bday celebration so that we could celebrate with Aria, Daniele and Sofia.

Mischief with 4 year old Sofia

Aria and Daniele are making their way back to Long Beach after their brief overnighter in Solvang and Santa Barbara area. Sofia and her grandparents are making the most of the time while the cats are away. We went to the Dollar store to buy the New Years Eve party things. She's now in the living room whooping it up. Just trying to see what works. What happens in Long Beach stays here!
