mister mister

mister mister is one of dexter's nicknames - here he is napping.  didn't even know we came come.  i wonder if this is where he naps all day?


disney family museum

since we are disney fans, where else would we go to spend a saturday?  yep, at the disney family museum in the presidio.  if you are a disney fan, we would recommend this place - not a place for kids though as there are lots of reading.  we spent about 3-1/2 hours at the museum!

i'm part of the family  :)

snow white was the first animated feature film from walt disney


i sat on the bench  :)

terra cotta warriors

10 life size terra cotta warriors are in town until the end of may, so we went and saw them at the sf asian art museum.  it is amazing how the first emperor of china thought about his afterlife.  




bookcases

instead of buying bookcases, i bought crates at joann's and painted them.  now i'm debating if i should repaint and make them white because the stuff i put on them will stand out better.  or i can leave it and then all the stuff i put on them will be white.  what do you think?

gift for my boss

my boss resigned and i came up with the book idea below for her gift (along with maroon 5 concert tickets!).  i bought some craft papers and asked everyone to write a little note to her and put it in envelopes that i handmade for each person (i try to personalize the envelope to the person that was writing the note - our ceo  loves disneyland, so i made a disney envelope).  she loved it and i loved making it.


originally there was a fake picture in the opening, but i couldn't shrink our group picture to that size, so when i took out the fake picture and saw that the background was black, i was like aha!  


everyone made funny poses

easter 2013

3rd annual easter egg hunt at our house.  :)  i was so glad that the rain held off.





children's fairyland

couple of weeks ago i took my parents, lianne, and pierce to children's fairyland in oakland.  did you know that fairyland was the first united states theme park created to cater to families with young children?  never knew it existed until i saw it on living social for a great deal.  we were there over 3 hours and i think everyone had a good time.  we ended the day with a trip to where else - mcdonald's!
