Erica turns 9 today!

Our dear Erica turns 9 today! Today is Labor Day, Erica's buddy Rachel spent a night at our house last night. We went to Garden Cafe at Arcadia and met up with Bonnie & Danny's family for lunch. After lunch, we went to Santa Anita mall together. The girls did some shopping and we had afternoon snack at the McDonald's. Erica had a very relaxing birthday...

A day at Soak City!

The extended summer camp at YMCA ended last Friday, school will start next Wednesday. We both took today off and took the girls to Soak City water park in Buena Park. As usual, we stopped by Alhambra for breakfast. It's around noon when we entered the water park. Since it's Monday, the park was not too packed, the wait time for each attraction was only about 15 minutes. The girls favorite place was the Tidal Wave Bay! We left the park at around 4pm and went back to Alhambra for dinner and grocery shopping before heading back home.

A fun day at the Pine Mountain Club!

Our friend Beverly and Greg recently purchased a cabin in Pine Mountain Club California, they go up to the mountain and spend every weekend over there. Last week Beverly told us that there was a new property across her house listed for sale, we got the contact number of her realtor Judy Kaiser and made an appointment with her today so that she can show us some properties over there. It took us an hour and half to get there from our house in Newbury Park. We got there at around 10:30am and they just about to start their Fall Festival at the village center, there was a small parade and a lot of street vendors... Judy showed us 7 properties in a little over an hour, we have decided to go to the last one Judy showed us which is a very nice cabin located across Beverly's house, it's a short sale house and we made an offer and signed all paper work, we will get a pre-qualification letter from the bank on Tuesday and will fax to Judy to start the process. We plan to visit the area again in the next two weeks, Beverly will take us to the club house and tour the village center.

After we were done with the realtor, we went to visit Beverly and Greg, then they took us to visit their friend Lori & Mark. Lori & Mark has a large house near the golf course, they invited us to stay for BBQ dinner, we left at around 9:30pm and got home at 11pm.
