The Cruise

There are 15 girls that get together & we go & do something every other year. This family is on my husbands side. I love hanging out w/ them. It is non-stop laughing & playing. Aunt Marti plans & put them together. We haven't all got together for about 2 years. We went on a cruise from L.A to Ensenada. Thank you, Marti for putting this together. It is nice to get a break from your kids & husband j/k (Dan).


This trip only 13 of us girls were together. We all got tattoos of a purple pansie ( G-ma McCausland's favorite song). We call us girls "Faye's Delights". We came up w/ this name after G-ma(Faye) McCausland. We would love it if she could be here w/ us on these trips. She is probably watching us & just laughing at us girls.

We went to Ensenada, Mexico. It was a really dirty place but I enjoyed going there. I like the shopping trying to talk the prices down. We were told to tell them to shut up by our tour guide. I couldn't understand what he was saying a lot of the time. He spoke different languages. I thought he reminded me of my brother Jeremy. I don't know why! He was just a really funny guy, when I did understand him.





We had so much fun playing bingo. I was so excited to play. We were all hoping to win but that didn't happen. I just wanted to scream bingo even if I didn't have bingo.

We finally went to the pool & layed out on the ship. They just keep you busy w/ different activities & entertainment to go to.
We ate a lot of food on the cruise. They just want to make sure you eat. Which I loved the desserts the best. I was to picky on the the food but desserts I'm happy..
We were all tired at the airport. We were ready to go home. Sara looked so comfortable I had to take this picture.. She is so cute.

The Birthday Party & Fun w/ Family...

Happy 60th Birthday, Mom. This picture was put into the newspaper for her birthday. You had to squint your eyes so you could see the picture cause the newspaper are making them smaller & smaller. I love this picture of my mom. We had a surprise party for her. Actually it was suppose to be a surprise but I opened my mouth & it accidently slipped out. We had dinner & family came over. It was alot of fun as you can tell by the picture of my nephew Karsten(werido). He always brings some excitement in the pictures I take. We had this cake made by Shanel(sister-n-law) & she does such a good job. It is a really really good cake. Thanks, Shanel. We hope mom had a good birthday. We sure do love her...



The kids got to hang out w/ their cousin Caden. We had a barbecue w/ Ashish, Hannah,Caden & G-ma Hansen. Caden is 3 months older than Ryker. They are so cute together. Ryker would take Caden's food from him when he wasn't looking. He would just eat whatever Caden was eating. These cousins are going to be best buddies.The next day we went to In-n-out w/ them & took the kids to Jumpin Jacks. Ashish & Hannah enjoyed Jumpin Jacks cause they kept getting on the slides w/ Caden to make sure he had a good time. We had a hard time getting our kids out of there. It was fun hanging w/ them & G-ma Hansen.
