Pet Expo

This past Sunday afternoon we went to the Orange County Pet Expo. They have over 1,000 animals, plus cool stuff like petting zoo, pony rides, product booths, etc. It was a rather windy day, but the sun was out most of the time. We saw all kinds of really neat things. The Anaheim police did a demonstration with their canines. Wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of those German Shepherds. Of course Maddie and I went into the petting zoo. We made friends with a sheep named "Hope" and a goat whose name I didn't catch. We saw many different breeds of cats and dogs. They had a large adoption area but we didn't linger considering it's too hard on the heart if you know you can't have another pet.


Here are some pics from the event.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to everyone! I hear it's been very cold in Kentucky. I hope it doesn't ruin the blooming trees, flowers, gardens, etc. Jason remembers a picture of him when he was really little and his birthday fell on Easter. There was several inches of snow in the picture. I'm glad you didn't get that much! It was 68 degrees here today. The sun came out for a while, but the marine layer made it very cloudy. We went out to eat at Marie Calenders for our Easter dinner. It sure didn't feel right. You can't beat my mother-in-law's cooking. Her mashed potatoes are out of this world which are my favorite...


Maddie got a basket from the Easter Bunny. It had several plastic eggs, a book about the Easter story, and her very first Easter Bunny. No chocolate this year!!! Just wait till 2008!!!



Well, gotta run. Maddie is not interested in watching me type right now. I'll post some more pictures later.
