How Cute. Ethan during his first visit to the OC.

Ethan discovering sand. It was so hard to get him
not to eat the sand.

The Russians are Leaving!!

Good Times!

Oleg and Marina kissing on a dare.


















We had a little get together with our Russian neighbors last night because they are all going back home. Oh! My head hurts sooo much. If you learn anything from me let it be this...do not drink with Russians. They invented it and you cannot do it better than them even if you tried ( and believe me, I tried). Anyway here are some pics from the event.

Cleaning and Drinking

I spent the evening sipping on Orange Juice and Bacardi( is this even a real drink?) and cleaning my house. My mom and sister will be here in two days ( yippy). I tried my best to clean up, but as you can see it is hard to keep a space that is under 600 square feet looking nice when you have the combined belongings of a 24 & 27 year old crammed in it. Well, there's no dust and it smells good...so that's a start. Anyway, in two days I hope to have tons of pictures of my sister and her cute kid, Ethan. So keep checking back. For now I am gonna listen to some Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder on my Ipod. Peace!

Crab Battle!!

A favorite past time of all beach dwellers is eating hard
shell crabs ( yummy). Even our cat, Oscar gets into it.

Can't Wait for it to look like this again!
