Happy Birthday Emma and Aunt Nini Rocks!

This past weekend was so incredibly much fun. My sweet sister came down for Emma's sixth birthday. We had a blast. We went to Coronado and the Zoo and Wahoo's and Sammy's Woodfired Pizza and to Borders to take a peek into the newly released book Eclipse to read the very first chapter of the next Stephenie Meyer book Breaking Dawn. It was so much fun. We all got a little sun burnt and we were pretty tired but it was such a great weekend (even if we were sick during different parts of it). My sister is so great. The relationship that she has with my daughter is one that I envy. I see them whisper little things to each other and I see how Emma cherishes her Aunt Nini. She has written things in her class, little stories and drawings, about her Aunt Nini all year long. Actually Anita has a good relationship with all my nieces and nephews. She is so sweet and loving and generous. She gives of herself freely to those that she loves and holds nothing back with the love that she gives. She is constantly doing things for each of them that amaze me. Like at Christmas time she took my niece Bailey up to Salt Lake to ride on the Polar Express. She has taken some of them to Disneyland and she is always flying out to Texas or driving into San Diego to visit. She helped my parents go to Hawaii last summer and she is always got something up her sleeve. In August for our Birthday (mine is the ninth and her's is the tenth. She is thee years older than me) we are all going to go to something so incredible. I can't say what it is because it is a surprise for someone and I don't want it to get out and ruin it. I will let you all know in August! She is such a great big sister. Dang I love that girl! Well here are some pics for you all to see. They are mostly of Emma and Anita. Oh one last thing.... I have to plug Wahoo's. It is this great Mexican restaurant in Mission Valley. They only have select locations around the western part of the states. It's pretty good food and they have really good fish taco's. Check it out sometime!
