My 33rd with Brian Regan (and family)

Such a great birthday weekend! Freddy got me Brian Regan tickets who is one of my comic idols! Freddy made a weekend out of it and it was awesome...

They didn't have a big poster of him so I had to settle for this small sign.
Before the show...
We've seen all of his stuff! He is brilliant! All of his material was new and I cried laughing through the entire thing! Love his material!


Freddy got us a room at the resort Brian Regan was playing at. (Pechanga in Temecula) It was beautiful! They even upgraded our room to a suite! Sweet! Check it out. Really, the kids weren't there to twist me into a mom preztel. Ahhhh... that's all I needed. The room's a bonus.
This place was awesome.
The next day? IHOPing with mani/pedi's. My Fred indulging.

On my actually birthday, Sunday, we spent the whole day lazying around on our behinds eating and watching movies. Hangin' out with my peeps.  Couldn't want anything else. On top of the awesome weekend, Freddy also got me this shirt. If you know Freddy, you won't have to ask why. I dig it.
Sexy you say... my man making me a cake.  Awwww yeah. (In Barry White tone.)
Knox enjoying his birthday green beans.
The kids get so excited for the cake. Cutie's.
Enjoyed my cake with my beautiful family. Wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

Yosemite Royal Arches 2010

The Kuhn Brother's just did a "reunion" climb in Yosemite a week ago. The last time they did it was about 17 years ago. From what I heard, it was intense and a total rush.

Mat and Moe getting ready.

The crazy shot from the about the 3rd or 4th pitch.

Ok. So this is apparently where some big drama went down. Right after this picture, Moe started to run to get some momentum while Freddy was belaying him and wasn't quite ready for the stunt. Moe fell at a 2,000 drop and Freddy grabbed the rope and pulled him to safety with the help of his brothers. Not sure on the details, but it's like chewing tin foil getting Freddy to post anything in his own words...
Spencer taking a breather.
Making a hike back, except, they hiked the wrong way. 


Beautiful view from the top of the climb. Time started taking a toll...
It got dark quick and they had to make some decisions ...
I got a call from Freddy that night telling me they were camping on the arches since the daylight was gone and apparently the climb down at night is not a smart idea. So they put their boyscout hats on and made a fire.
Apparently there wasn't much sleep. 
Up and ready to finish the hike.
They made it home safe thank goodness. A heavy duty trip, but their climbing again in Utah next month. 

Kuhn Girls Getaway 2010

Another girl trip. You betchya. Only this time it was the Kuhn hottie's. We borowed my parents condo in Palm Desert and stayed as loooong as we could. Great weekend!

Two mothers away from the kids. They're glowing!

Hot tubbing.I've been pregnant so often I'd forgotten it was ok for me to get in.
Pool time with no "Marco... Polo..."

Sondra has this awesome camera where you smile and it automatically takes the shot. That's really the only reason we invited her.

Kati making friends.

Shopping? Uh, yeah.

This year I persuaded the girls to do a $10 gift swap...

Reta and Sondra got pretty hair flower accessories...
I got some body warming thing. Kinky? Maybe.
Mascara from yours truly.
Amy. Uh. Don't remember what Amy got. A pretty blue box came with it though.
Us with our happy gifts!
Kati just hangin'.
Pedi's for everyone!!
Reta and Sondra let me do their makeup for our night out. They turned out Hot Mama's.
Pretty Reta.
Sondra has eyes!!
Us out for a night on the town. This is The River in Palm Desert.
Yummy girls. No wonder our husbands didn't want us to go!
We of course had to make our MAC haul...
Cheesecake. Yum.
We finished our weekend off with overload. Sugar from a good ol' fashion Jewish deli. Mazel tov. The husband texted us all day long wondering when we were coming back home. Silly boys. We eventually made it.
