The Suite Life...in Palm Springs, California

I just returned from a week of being in SUNNY California. I left last Monday and came home this past Monday. It was sad to leave Payton & Tim but it was good time for daddy to realize how hard it is to take care of a baby by yourself :-) Daddy does a GREAT job! After all she was still alive when I got home!! and she missed me!

For the first couple of days I was in Palm Springs at the tennis tournament. I passed out USANA product to the WTA players. USANA (my work) sponsors the WTA with nutritional supplements. We had a good time meeting with all of the players! I even saw Nadal...as my husband says, "he's hot" he is good looking but much smaller in person.

On Thursday we were off to meet with some of my leaders in Los Angeles area. I have a young Gen Y group that is growing like crazy!! I attended a few of their meetings and then on Friday I did lunch and dinner with them. On Saturday I attended a Childrens Hunger Fund Event. The CHF is one of the most efficient charities out there, 99 cents of every dollar goes to the children. My work does a lot of work with them. Our Associates donate nutritional supplements to children that need them. We also donate time and money to CHF. This past Saturday we went and helped pack food packs for families in need. I have added a few photos of this day....





On Saturday afternoon we headed back to the tennis tournament in Palm Springs. We sat in a suite on Sunday and invited some of our leaders to join us. We also had our president and founder with us. One of our leaders use to dance for Missy Elliot and his wife was a "harajuku" girl for Gwen Stefani. Another one of our leaders, Tony Cruz, used to race on Lance Armstrong's cycling team. I also couldn't have asked for a better day of tennis!! I got to see Maria Sharapova, Andy Roddick, Roger Federer, Daniela Hantuchova (she won last year), and Svetlana Kuznetsova. It was AWESOME!! I have added a few pics below....

My hobby!

I thought it would be nice to post a few pics of the new Z so my family can see the newest addition to the family. As my family and friends know, I am a Z, meaning 300z junky. I have had several. I sold my pristine black 95 last summer and have missed it ever since. I picked up the new Z a few weeks ago, just in time for spring, if it ever arrives that is. I will be racing "The Monster" this year, then who knows. Here are a few pics of the garage queens...

The old, "Black Beauty", as my mom calls it.



The new "Garage Queen"!



And "The monster"- Over 1000hp!

Fisheeees

This morning I was in our pantry and I turned around because Miss Payton wanted my attention. She started opening and closing her mouth (this is what she does to make a fish). So I looked at her and she was pointing up to the shelf. So I turned around to look at what she was pointing at and she wanted some goldfish crackers. She is a smarty!! I am just so amazed with her and what she is learning. I LOVE IT!!
