November Naughtiness

Her shirt says everything you need to know. This girl. She rules our castle.

Wonderful visit with Grandma and Grandpa Mitchell.

Block party fun--we live in the best neighborhood!

Universal Studios à deux.

Look who we ran into--for real! I'm pretty sure we fit right into the movie timeline!

There's no such thing as too many explosions at Waterworld!

That's an awfully big doughnut for a little girl! (it took us two days to finish it)

I love, love, love and adore this amazing little beauty, and I'm so glad I get to be her mum!

One of our best days ever!

Even after that long day, she was ready to hit the pool--too bad it was closed.

Fancy digs.

Hollywood Walk of Fame--Leo Carrillo is the Wild West movie star for whom Sera's and Emer's school is named. Our neighborhood is built on what was once his sprawling ranch, and the peacocks who still hang out there are the descendants of those he raised.

Adding some sparkle of her own--ears pierced!

I loved visiting the Getty for the first time--what a beautifully laid out, visually stunning museum.

My little Sun Queen.

If you look carefully, you can see the traffic we got to fight on the way home.

And back to Universal again. This time for Thanksgiving.

My favorite ride of all time, at any park, anywhere. I will definitely go to the real Jurassic Park if it ever opens, terrifying movies notwithstanding!

Like lambs to the slaughter.

Has he no shame? Offering up the youngest and most helpless as a sacrifice for his own safety--he would definitely never make it as a movie hero.

That's my kind of Thanksgiving Dinner!

Love the tram ride, overlooking the city.

Unfortunately a jetliner crashed right in front of us. I hate when that happens (from War of the Worlds).

Caught red-handed!

A family of ogres.

Doughnut, meet Cora. Cora, doughnut.

This bunch is always red-carpet ready.

We can't imagine a better start to the holidays!

Oh. But there is this. The Thanksgiving dinner of shame.
