Halloween Bash 2011

Our first annual Halloween Bash occurred this past Friday. From the look on everyone's face and the number of empty beer bottles I counted, it appears that everyone had a great time. Below are a few photos of the party. Mitzi, Sophia and I hope to do it again next year and make a tradition out of it. Thanks for all those who attended and made it a great night

1st Dodgers Game

ok, ok, I know it has been awhile since the last posting. I've been bad and lazy, but I bring to you all today one heck of a posting. This past weekend Sophia went to her first Dodgers game. Below are a few photos of our day at the ballpark.


Go Dodgers!!!



Sophia taking in the action



Mommy and Sophia...see the resemblance?



Sophia was getting many compliments so she took time to wave to all her fans.



An Angels fan was sitting behind us and said something Sophia didn't like. Watch out for the Stink Eye!!!


We had a great time and Sophia really enjoyed being at the ballpark. We're so blessed to have her in our lives and we look forward to taking her to more games in the future.

Weekend in the Snow

President's Day Weekend 2011 was Sophia's first visit to the snow. A very big thanks to the Borchardt Family whom once again graciously allowed the Magos Family use of their cabin. Others in attendance this weekend were my mom and dad, Nino Don, Brenda, Daniel and Bailey, Nino Vic, Tia Letti and Nicasio.

We almost didn't make it up to Shaver Lake on Saturday because Caltrans was requiring chains. Luckily Mitzi and I bought chains in Prather before we went up the hill and we were able to safely make it the rest of the way. My Nino Vic had to go back down the hill to buy chains and they joined us at the cabin about a half and hour later.

It snowed a overnight and we woke up on Sunday morning to a beautiful sight outside. The sun was out and the snow was glowing with the sunlight hitting it. Luckily the road was plowed and we were able to use the sleds. I've included a few photos and videos of the weekend below, enjoy!

This was how our car was found after a night of snow:

Viva Las Vegas!

This past weekend Mitzi, Sophia and I went to Las Vegas to celebrate my cousin Andy's 21st birthday. My parents went along with us and helped us with Sophia and watched her while Mitzi and I enjoyed the festivites during the night hours. Sophia did so good on the trip. She seemed to really enjoy seeing all the lights and all the people out. We arrived on Friday and came back on Sunday. We were able to see and do a lot when were there (although in Vegas, it always seems like you could have seen and done more). Below are a few pictures of Sophia during the trip


Apparently The Mirage is Sophia's favorite hotel/casino. Perhaps its the big volcano outside?


Sophia is so excited to cash her ticket


Finally, Sophia is so pooped from the trip that she forgot to put her last $100 into her purse.

Holiday Season

Hello all, I know I'm a little late with these videos, but here you go. The first two are of Sophia opening gifts on Christmas while the next two are my mom attempting to make a pie. For anyone who knows my mom, cooking and/or baking are not her cup of tea. Enjoy!
