Oxnard

So this last weekend we went up to Oxnard to visit some friends who live up there. We left Friday morning. Got up there just after noon and got to see their new house that they moved into. Then we ordered pizzas for lunch and took the kids and all to the beach. The area is gorgeous and the weather is perfect. It didn't get to hot or to cold at night. The kids played in between the small park on the beach, a small zipline and then of course the water. Miki and I both just got to sit back and relax...finally some mommy relaxing time. Afterwards we headed back to their house. We all just hung out and Miki made some killer chicken enchiladas. Saturday they got ready for a house warming party. We all pitched in to get everything set up. The guys bbq'ed hot dogs, chicken, and carne asada. Miki prepared a Macaroni salad, and potatoe salad. People brought chips, fruit trays and veggie trays. It was really fun. We got to meet their family and some of their other friends. Overall I think everyone had blast. We ended the night by the adults sitting out on the back patio area playing Dominoes, listening to music and having a couple drinks. Sunday morning Justin made breakfast for everyone. Then I got to work and cut and colored some hair. Finally Victor took me to their local swap meet. He couldn't believe i had lived in So. California for 6 yrs and never been to one before. It was deffinantly fun and I will be going back to another one sometime soon. I got a couple pairs of flip flops and my fav. mexican candy peanut marzapan. YUMMY! When we got back to the house it was time to clean up, pack up and head home. It was an enjoyable time for all of us. The girls each had someone they could hang with. Chelsey got along perfect with their son AJ, and daughter Erlinda. Ky hung out with Diego and gained a crush..ha ha. Issy and Lola were partners in crime. Maybe next time we can meet their other son Ruben who was not there.

Ha ha I couldn't resist taking this pic of Victor and his girly looking PINK drink. If you notice he also has his pinky finger sticking out.. very cute Victor


So their yard is a work in progress. When they moved in the grass was like as tall as the kids and hidden in it was a go cart, a bunch of chairs, and this swing set. Even though there wasn't much of the swing set left. The kids found ways to use it. Here is AJ playing on it and doing some tricks


Victor hard at work

Bbq'ing up some food, as well as we still had left over pizza from fridays lunch. So we decided we would try to see what it would taste like heated up on the bbq..It was GOOD


The girls in the morning with Tink. Lola and Issy are about 5 months apart and we're always together the whole weekend


Issy got a little hungry waiting for lunch so she ate her own pizza..ha ha. Nope just used the box as a plate for a slice she had

I was trying to keep in the shade, and so was Justin. Even though it wasn't that hot. We still got a little burnt. Lola, Miki's 5 yr old took this pic for me..thank you Lola
