Saturday, October 3rd, 2009 1. Woke up very well rested. First evening I wore sweats to bed in a long time. Must mean that it's fall.
2. Sofia must have been very well rested too: She woke me up by asking (with a huge smile on her face): "Mom, are we going to Pino-Pino class today?"
3. Ava runs into bedroom naked and screams "Good morning" then runs away. I can hear Jay running the water to give her a bath.
4. Love my husband for letting me sleep in.
5. Coffee and my breakfast of choice lately: toast with peanut butter.
6. As I was getting the girls dressed for the day, Jay and I realize that they have very few pairs of pants that fit them anymore (time to go shopping)
7. Off to Filipino class at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. Note to self: it's always cold in the classroom, leave early and bring Starbucks next week.
8. We learned how to say the sign of the cross in Filipino (never knew that Filipino, not Tagalog, is the official language of the Philippines) Sa ngalan ng Ama, ng Anak at ng Espiritu Santo. Amen
>>insert scan of Sofia's Bokabularyo words with drawings<<
9. During class, special guest singer from the Philippines Charmaine Clamor came to sing with us, Sofia got her autograph.
10. During class Sofia had an outburst because the teacher chose Mom instead of her to play "Lola" in a skit. She and I had a major discussion in the car afterwards.
11. Got home and Jay and I decided it was a good day to go to Disneyland. Not too hot.
12. Ate lunch at Manila Harbor, then went to Best Buy to buy a printer for Jay to install for someone the next day.
13. Made another donation at Goodwill drop off in Encinitas.
14. Fell asleep on the drive up to Disneyland
15. Saw red forever. It was Gay Day at Disneyland. Overheard a conversation while waiting in line for Finding Nemo. This guy apparently knows Kristin Chenowith and was talking about how if it weren't for her being Glinda in Wicked, that role would have been much smaller than it was. I was so bummed when the line moved and I couldn't eavesdrop anymore.
16. Again in the same Finding Nemo line, I had a "FIGHT FOR JUSTICE" moment and I am very proud of myself.
17. The girls both wanted watermelon as a snack at Disneyland. They sure are easy to please.
18. Two more rides, a trip to Emporium, and we were home bound.
19. We were bad: had Taco Bell for dinner. Note to self: the quesadillas come with sauce that the kids don't like.
20. What Disneyland trip would be the same without a stop at Starbucks off of Ortega Highway. Trying to be frugal, so it's been a long time since I've had my Pike's Place. I finished every drop.
21. Pandora is so cool, even when listening to the girls' music. Why do I like Miley Cyrus so much?
22. First to fall asleep in the car: Sofia. Ava not too long afterwards.
23. Home sweet home. Thinking to myself: I have a lot of cleaning to do tomorrow.

Oh Joce! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this post! I love the journaling - such a cool snap shot of your busy weekend. So many things I have to comment on! 1) I can't believe this is the first time in 3 years that I missed Gay Day @ Disney. I'm sad. Please tell me of the cool shirt logos you saw. 2) The Filipino class sounds very cool (I too thought it was Tagalog). 3) I should have told you about the Taco Bell quesadilla. Vince had that same exact problem so now I have to order "plain quesadilla with no sauce. only tortilla and cheese. no sauce...." because half the time the teenager taking my order gets it wrong.
4) I agree - what good is a ride home from Disneyland without the Starbucks on Ortega. 5) I love Miley! Did you see her movie yet? You will cry buckets. 6) FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!
Sorry I haven't called to get the story. Work has been a bitch. Let's try to hook up this weekend!
