An important "first"

More walking...

A very busy day....

First, preparing to empty mama's purse one thing at a time....while sitting in his bathtub in pajamas...fun!

We're on our way in the new car. I love it but Henry is still not impressed by his car seat and would prefer to stay and play at home...

But then we arrive. Brad and Trellis are super fun.


Taking his bear for a walk...thanks for steering Trellis!

Winding down and working the phones....

Misc Fun

Hi .... I forgot my camera today so in order to post something daily for the rest of Cannes (sad I'm not there...though it was 87 here today....miss you all! miss the Villa d'Estelle!) I may have to do a few review pages of pics I never posted....

From our family visit....

Nap time!

Playtime...

Celebrating Queen's Day in Los Angeles! (yes, we dress up for holidays and wear matching stuff to Disneyland...)

More Disneyland....

Fakers....you didn't go on that ride!

Astro-Blaster rivals!

during...

and after :)

New Car!

Henry and I needed a new car so we spent much of this past week car shopping and test driving with the kind assistance of his Oma and Opa. After walking all around the dealerships leaving crumbs and sticky fingerprints on all the fancy new cars there is nothing more fun than driving Opa's car!

Our new car!! Darling Honda Fit in UCLA blue...yay!

BUSY!!!

Janna, Kees and Krista arrived to meet Henry and so began the two week whirlwind of "fun things Krista planned to share with Henry!"

Disneyland was top of the list which also included Target, Big Lots, Islands, Uncle Bills Pancake House.....and much more! (Thanks for all your help Krista!!! Henry misses his mini-mama!!)


The main reason for the visit besides meeting Henry....Henry and Krista were baptized at the church where Janna and Julie and I grew up (Henry is pushing Rev Calhoun's hand off :) )

(Did I mention Henry is walking now?!!)

Henry's first Disneyland ride

Hope everyone in Cannes is having fun without me! Happy Birthday Caroline!! jjx

High level DDA management meeting...Henry was very focused on the presentation.

(So happy to see Paul and Lawrence....thanks for fitting us into your busy schedule!)

Still celebrating my birthday, two weeks later!
Happy boy.
Brave and very patient kitty.
