Christina and her friend Chase (been friends since 3 yrs old!) left AZ for FL on Aug 7th. In this picture they were 5 years old!
They had alot of fun in AZ and FL. Here is her contribution to the blog:
We had a lot of fun.
In AZ, Chase and I went Tubing and to Sedona.
In FL, we went to, Disney World, Universal Studio's, "The Groove" (teen club at universal with friends), the beach twice, the mall, saw two movies, looked up our old favorite movies and had a gigantic pillow/MATTRESS fight. and imagine this, we still fight like brother and sister at times. lol
and yes, we are just friends to clear the air.
(BTW mom, I just heard Caleb ask Zachary if he "wanted to see big cat poop"
hahah)
Sedona, AZ.
He looks happy! right?!
Chase, Justin and I went to DisneyWorld on Tuesday. We rode on the go-carts and I had my own car while Chase and Justin shared one. While I kept going my way, these two losers, (may I add. lol) decided it would be funny to stop in the middle of the track so that everyone behind them couldn't pass.
See in the picture how there are four lanes and only three are filled with cars? The one that isn't filled is Chase and Justin's lane. ha ha. They finally came around with about 15 other cars behind them. BOYS!
On the monorail.
Taken the day he left.
He left Saturday the 15th. I'm so glad they got to hang out for such a long time!
Mike took the kids to Universal Studios. It started raining, and everyone left!
Mikeys 'umbrella'.
They had the playground all to themselves!
All week Elektra has wanted to wear dresses. Not just any ol dresses, but Princess Dresses.
Princess Elektra going for a stroll with Auntie Corinna.
Now Princess Elektra is taking her babies for a stroll.
Princess Elektra likes to pile pillows on the couch, sit on them, (notice her shirt even SAYS Princess)
then flip herself over backwards,
to the other end of the couch.
Michelle was invited to speak at a American Liver Foundation Meeting.
She spoke really well as she told her story.
Please go to http://www.liverfoundation.org/ to learn more about liver disease, (FYI- People develop liver disease for various reasons. Viruses, hereditary defects, and reactions to drugs and chemicals are among the known causes of liver breakdown. Michelles was acute liver failure with no apparent reason. You can develop liver disorders at any age, no matter how healthy you are or how good you feel. But there are ways to treat and even prevent this disease and somewhere out there is a cure waiting to be discovered. Heavy drinking, drug use, or Hepatitis are not the only causes). You can also go to http://go.liverfoundation.org/goto/mattinglymiracle to help support Michelle, Leonard and I on the Liver Walk on Sept 12th in San Jose.
Princess Elektra put my shoes on
Then she insisted I put HERS on.
She calls these dolls Zachary & Caleb. She makes them dance and kiss each other.
I finished my 6th puzzle. Princess Elektra likes to sit next to me and color while I do the puzzles.
Today we went to Gilroy's Outlet Mall. Princess Elektra and Michelle needed shoes, (Princess Elektra got 2 pairs of Pink Sparkly Shoes, but none were in her mommys size, so Michelle had to settle for a simpler version) Leonard got a new pair of unscratched Sunglasses (I'm so glad to know I am not the only one that can destroy a perfectly good pair of glasses in mere seconds.) and I got some new belly button rings.
We came back to the Blue House where a Jester entertained his Princess Elektra.
But Princess Elektra wanted to play 'dress and act like a cuckoo bird' too.
And what a Princess wants, a Princess gets!
Princess Elektra was worn out after a fun day with Mommy, Daddy & Auntie, but she refused to take off her new sparkly pink light up shoes even as she was falling into dreamland.
The 20th is the next (and should be LAST) court date. I will update everyone on whats been happening and will happen after that date.
