MM B Party
We celebrated a special Grandmom’s birthday a few weekends ago ( I know, I’m a little late posting).

Last week, mommy set up Z as a participant in a NASA rover to Mars. In other words, the boy will make it to Mars, if in name only. Individuals who signed there names will be included on a chip on the rover. Pretty cool stuff…even cooler, the rover launches from mommy’s birth place, Vandenberg …

Bottomless Pit
