Happy Birthday me!

A marvelous day at Disneyland with my two special granddaughter's, my beautiful daughter Amy, and my marvelous and generous husband...Isn't it nice how Disneyland decorated the park so wonderfully for my special day?!




I even got a pin announcing my birthday, and all the people in shops and on rides greeted me with, "Happy Birthday Princess"! Now that is special!

Spring has sprung~






















A wonderful day with my friend Connie. Her birthday was in March, and this year just seemed crazy on getting our schedules together for some fun time. Luckily spring break rolled around and we got to have some time for ourselves! I originally wanted to go to the Lavender Fields, but they weren't in bloom quite yet, so this was the runner up and it turned out perfectly!
  1. First a stop for lunch at Belle Fleur restaurant where we indulged in wonderful salads and cream of tomato soup.
  2. Shopped and browsed at the outlet mall.
  3. Explored the FLOWER FIELDS, took pictures, sat and relaxed in the warm sunny day
  4. Chatted about this-that and everything!
The Flower Fields, are where they grow a particularly beautiful flower called the Giant Tecolote Ranunculus . The fields were planted on over 50 acres, and you can see them rolling over in patches of color like a giant quilt; red's, purples, pinks, yellows, oranges etc. They bloom from March till May heralding the arrival of spring in southern California!

Time Out For Women



This was a special day that I gave as a present to me and my two friends Connie and Brenda. We got to see a General RS Counselor, Sherry Dew-president of Deseret Book, and her good friend Wendy Watson. Only a month later she (Wendy) married Elder Nelson!


We were treated to speakers and music that were uplifting, and then had a special "spanish-style" lunch in the quaint area of Long Beach. We took thes pictures after a wind-blown walk to lunch!
