A few weeks ago we visited my aunt and uncle in Arroyo Grande. It was me, my mom, my kids and my niece. My aunt and uncle are awesome. And ridiculously talented in the art department. I think they should change their names to "We Make Pinterest Look Like Preschool Fingerpainting."
Our first stop - The Coffee Bean. I used to get an ice blended mocha almost every day when I was at UCLA.
The kids took turns driving the golf cart around the property.
Swimming at their neighbors' pool.
Jordis took a header at the neighbors' house.
Aunt Leslie made hats for the girls. On the spot because Kylie asked her to. Took her all of 30 minutes.
Lydia's hat. Made with an old sweater from the thrift store.
My uncle made these sculptures out of duct tape and newspaper. Inspired by So You Think You Can Dance? Someone from that show has got to see these! You know there is a choreographer who could make a routine using these. For the love of Mia Michaels . . .
We had quite a trip to the dollar store. I was particularly impressed that you could get this fake brain for a dollar. So many things I could do with this. Party favor for princess party, put it in Elijah's lunch box, hang it on my front door for decoration . . .
Our last stop was at this restaurant. This sign was comforting. Or not
Welcome friends, family, randoms, lurkers, blog addicts, fellow desperate moms, and Bono. This blog consists of mostly funny stuff that will make you feel better about yourself. Lots of mom comedy, non-Kodak moments, and un-fashion tips. On Wednesdays I write about my life as a former childhood actress complete with posts about how the entertainment business works, actors I met (or stalked), people and animals I worked with, my Hollywood friends, and photos of former teen heartthrobs. And if that’s not enough to draw you in to follow me . . . I have done some amazing giveaways. A rubber chicken, millions of doll hairs, and unlimited supplies of air. Come join the party.

The pool had a big beach entry. So great for little ones. And yes, my uncle does good duct tape butts.
