"Did you miss me?"

Today Libs returned to school after a week away.

She walked into class this morning and said, "Did you miss me?"

She got right back into her old routine-- running around with all the boys, holding hands with her best friend Faith, and hugging every child.

We ran up to Mint Canyon to get Ben due to Emma's ugly stomach flu. On the way home Libi and I were talking up a storm. I stopped at a light and Libs was out! I took this in the garage right before I woke her up-- my daughter is simply too big to carry upstairs anymore.

In the evening we drove down to Century City for a special family activity.

Libi got asparagus in her dinner salad, I told her it was Jammy's favorite and she chowed down.

We were so lucky to make it into a special preview of Tangled. Libi won tickets at Boo at the Zoo, but seating wasn't guaranteed. We stood in line for almost two hours, but happily we got in :)

The movie was amazing in 3-D. It was a great story with fun music, characters you want to get to know, and some tear-jerking moments.

Libs didn't move through the entire movie!

Our whole family LOVED it!!!

We look forward to seeing it again on December 3rd at the El Capitan. If you want to come with us, Ron still has group tickets.

The mall we were at had the coolest parking lot...

they have lights above each parking spot. Red it the spot is full, green if it is empty. You can see at a quick glance where the spaces are.

Even though it was late, we wanted to share with Libi a Westwood tradition-- Diddy Riese.

This is a UCLA favorite...

great cookies at an amazing price. Yep, each cookie is only 35 cents!

We opted for some ice cream sandwiches...

and from that look-- Libi loved hers. OK, she doesn't really look it in this photo but she liked it :)
