December and the Whole Bit

I have to say, I have been a slacker these last few months when it comes to blogging. I hardly have time to think about it and when I do think about it, it is always at a time when there is no possible way to blog.

Anyways, we had a great Christmas holiday and the beginning of the new year. We went up to the Bay Area again for X-mas which is always super busy but fun. The kids had a great time visiting with all of the family not to mention the whole toy store that was given to them by both families. We also had some fun excursions to the city and a night out at Zoo lights. The day after Christmas, the Wuehler's normally have a family day, started by moi, so this year we invited whom ever wanted to come up to my parents cabin for a few days, There we played games, watched movies, roasted marshmallows and played in the snow. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

We headed back to Malibu with a full van and Julie in tow. Julie stayed with us for 3 weeks and we had a great time. We took the kids to Disneyland, the LA Science Center, the park, beach and all over LA. Julie and I had a few girls days and we took advantage of shopping, eating sushi, going to the movies and we even went to the Ellen Show.

On the way to the Ellen show, we saw the most beautiful sunrise! Once we got there and received our tickets, we went to the Universal City Walk where Universal Studios theme park is until we had to be back for taping. We were lucky enough to sit in the front row and we walked away with Cover Girl lipstick, "The Social Network" dvd, $50 in blockbuster bucks, 1 year free subscription to blockbuster movies, $100 Target gift card and a BluRay player. It was a fun day.

The weather here has been gorgeous so we have been soaking up the vitamin D while the rest of the country is bundled up. I think that concludes our December and first half of January in a nut shell.
