LA

This July we made the 2nd annual trip to LA, sans Brian.  Leaving at 3:30 in the morning we made it to Long Beach by 11.  We stayed with AnneMarie and then with Meme and Joe.  I was so tired.  Arrow decided to get up at 4:45-5:00 am every morning with the boys going to bed late.  The worst part was going to the Observatory.  I have wanted to go for so many years.  It was my favorite place as a kid and then we get there and it was closed.  Closed on Mondays.  I was so mad.  We left and I was roaming LA, that central part wondering what we should do before we go to Meme's. I pull over to look at a map and Miguel gets out of his seat belt and whoops Tonio.  I broke down.  Agghhh.  Otherwise it was a good trip.  We spent on night in Venice at a hotel.  It was funny because I told the boys that if Arrow wakes at 5 we would go on a walk- so we dont wake everyone up.  So that morning Arrow wakes at 5:01.  I feed him and he falls back to sleep and then at 5:15 Tonio looks at the clock and yells "5 lets go for a walk" and wakes up Arrow.  Then I ssshh him and they fall back asleep and at 5:30 Migs does the same thing.  We got up and went for a walk on the pier and then they swam in the cold morning air.  Stinkers.  I love them.
