P/HD+M [7:52]

Ah - this week was fun. Valentine's Day, parties, crazy kids and a ride in the convertible.  Doesn't get much better than that! This week also marked a few other things in, "life." February15 marked the 7 year anniversary of my grandmother's passing and her birthday was on February 17. I miss her so much. I wish she could have met my husband and my girls. But, it does bring peace to know that she's smiling down on them everyday. 

Here she is in the middle with 4 of her sisters
(yes, there is another sister! She stayed back in Spain - yes, we are Spanish!)
Can you imagine 5 teenage girls in your house, all of the time??

February 17th also marked my Mother-in-law's birthday, followed by my hubby's birthday on February 19th. 

Greg has also been itching to get out of the house and do something and since this California weather has been treating us so nicely, we decided it was a great time to head down to Monterey and visit the aquarium!

We have annual memberships to the aquarium - which pays for it's self in less than 4 days - plus you can bypass the entrance line and you get additional little perks during the year. Thank goodness for this membership - the line was unbelievably long on Sunday. I mean crazy long.  The place was totally packed.  We could barely push the stroller without running into someone.  It was like Disneyland after the fireworks. Nuts. We only stayed for a few hours - long enough to visit the penguins, see the otters get fed and pet some starfish.

This project is not about being a photographer. It's about being a better mom to my girls.
