Mom and Sara came to visit!!!

Mom and Sara told me last month that they had bought tickets to fly to Dallas and visit. I've been so excited waiting for them. We did so many fun things.
Sara exercised with me every morning.
We went to eat at Babes.

Mom played Super Mario Brothers on the Wii for the first time. It was hysterical.

We did a lot of shopping. We went to our mall by us first and then to North Park Mall.

We went to the Zoo

And saw the penguins

And the Baboons

We actually got to pet the giraffe this time. And she kept licking us. I think she likes us.

Sara was a little tired so she rode in the stroller.

Then I got tired of pushing her so Patrick gave it a shot

The kids played in the kid area and got caught in a giant spider web.

At North Park Mall Sara went into shopping mode and we didn't see her for a while. She did stop finally to eat dinner. She got soup at the soup place on Seinfeld. Remember the Soup Nazi? Yeah that guy. She said it tasted pretty good.

I'm so glad they came. I loved every minute of it. I was kind of depressed after they left and I cried on the drive home from Central Market where we left each other. I'm hoping they come again. Maybe when we have a house and Sara doesn't have to sleep on the couch.

The North Park Mall

We went to the North Park Mall to have dinner at the restaraunt that Raquel works in. We wandered the mall for a little bit too. Its probably the ritziest mall I'ver ever been too. Every high end store you could imagine. The fountain has ducks and red eared slider turtles in it. I was in heaven!!!!!

Grandmas birthday

Jesús' mom had a birthday and so we had a party. I wanted to try out my cupcake stand so I made cupcakes. I made raspberry chocolate cupcakes and lemon and vanilla cream cupcakes. I thought they were pretty dang good. I do want to improve my chocolate cake recipe. I want it to be more moist. I'm excited to try different recipes to find ones I love.

Patricks first Motorcycle ride

Jesús had to move the motorcycle and asked if Patrick wanted a ride around the parking lot. He loved it.

Babes

We had Babes when we came to visit last time. Now we can have it whenever we want. We went with the family to Babes for Dinner and it awesome.

We got to sit by the fire while we waited to be seated

Does that look divine? I know. I'm hungry now too.

Even Elena like it. Patrick only ate rolls and honey then cried the rest of the night because we asked to him to have some fried chicken.

Brahms

We didn't go to Rosemarys or Dewars very often in Bakersfield but in Texas we have been to Brahms probably 5 times. Its sooooo gooood! Elena likes the Birthday cake ice cream. Can you tell?

Brownies

These girls sure love to like the beater clean. Especially when we're making brownies.
