California Dreaming

Last week Rhino was in sunny southern California.  Life is rough isn't it!  He was taking a course for work.  As an added "bonus" he got an education about life in SoCal.  He know knows that at Ocean Boulveard you do not turn right on a red light.  Luckily he didn't get a ticket! 

While he was there there this happened "an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent shot his co-worker in an office dispute before being shot and killed by another colleague Thursday afternoon at the Glenn M. Anderson Federal Building."  It was scray stuff according to the news report over 100 FBI agents and police were on site. It made it next to impossible for Rhino to get back into his hotel.
 
At his hotel they were shooting an episode of Criminal Minds.  We love that show and will have to be on the look out for this episode.  This was one of the props.
After his course and exam were done he had some free time. He squeezed in a trip to The Grove to go to American Girl. Two girls I know made out pretty good from this stop!
He went on a TMZ tour.  He said it was fun and now we know what TMZ stands for!  Do you know what it stands for?
His tour guide who sometimes appears on the show.  Personally, I have only ever watched TMZ for about 2 minutes total.  But now I will have to watch to see if I see her.
 He went to a hockey game on Saturday night and meet Charlie Simmer.
 He also met Brett Wilson.
But all good things come to an end and he had to come back.  We went to the airport to get him and while waiting for him to clear customs we saw him on this screen first.  So we called him and told him to stand there so we could get a picture!

It's been a while

It's been a while since I've been on here.  So what's up?! Mom got moved in and for some reason I found it very funny that the moving truck needed a pull behind trailer.
Miss Cinderella has been learning about moon phases and had to do a moon observation.  This was her project to represent the moon phase that she saw.
 While Miss Cinderella was a way at Pajama Camp..this Princess had a serious cuddle session with Belle (the cat).
 I have also been working on my scrapbooking again. I finally just finished our trip to Mexico from last year. Such good memories.
 Sorry about the funky colors in this one..but it is really nice!

The girls have 5 days off school starting today.  I hope that we can all sleep in and enjoy it! Rhino is in Long Beach this week and at his hotel they are shooting an episode of Criminal Minds.  That is one of our favorite shows so that is pretty neat.

We are just a little speck

Tonight we got to go to an observatory as Miss Cinderella has been studying the moon in school.  This place has one of the largest telescopes in Canada.  This was our second trip and each time I have loved it.  When the telescope moves it makes you feel like you are in a movie or on a set.  It is that cool.  The best part it is only about 20 minutes away.  Definitely going back another time.
