I Love L.A.!

We're in L.A.! It's so nice here...If I didn't live where I live, I would live here for sure.

We arrived yesterday but I didn't blog because A.) I was crazy tired a B.) I didn't have a cable to download my pics. But today ending up being so exciting that I'm not even going to bother with yesterdays pics--the plane blah blah blah, Pinkberry, gallery, dinner....actually it was really fun--so maybe I will show those pics later? But onto today...

Here are the kids ready to head out bright and early:


Our first stop was one of our old standbys: Nate and Al's Delicatessan. The kids like it for the Yoo Hoo!

Here's the Pickle:
Highlight of the day: As we were walking into the restaurant, who was walking in right behind us? None other than Larry King!! It was exciting to see him, but we didn't have a chance to say anything as he made a beeline for his table to join his entourage.

The kids were begging me to say hi to him but I told him that no--under no circumstances could they approach him at his table. That the ultimate in rudeness! I said maybe if he was leaving at the same time we were they could talk to him.

But it was time to go and we all headed out, but I got waylaid by a phone call and by the time I got to the front of the restaurant none of my kids were in sight. I saw Don and the two little ones outside and turned around to find Andy, Teddy, Patrick and Larry King laughing it up at his table!!

I walked up semi-mortified and Larry was asking the kids all kinds of questions--as nice as can be--and then suggested we go outside and take some pictures! Which we did! Here's the kids with"Uncle" Larry:A little closer up:
The expression on Pickle's face is hilarious! She's like who IS this guy??

Then I joined the party:

He was seriously the nicest guy! He wanted to know all the kids' names and ages and when on about what a beautiful family we had--VERY nice man!


So after all that excitement it was time to visit Grandma. Here are the kids outside her house:
Grandma with some of the kids:

I love this pic of Pickle and Grandma!

And here's a portrait of Pickle:

OK--I want to post more pics--(we had dinner at a fun place that had five kinds of ketchup that I want to show you) but what up with Blogger? It's a nightmare to get the pics in the order I want! They won't scroll! I'll try to figure it all tomorrow--so that's it for today!

That picture of Pickle giving Larry King the stink-eye made me literally LOL! I have so missed Pickle pics!

I had issues uploading pics to Blogger last night too...it resolved itself, but still annoying!

What a great trip so far! Larry King...haha...that's hysterical! I love the pic of Pickle with Grandma too. She's become quite the little poser...it's a classic! Have a great time...I wanna go there!

I had to laugh at Pickle's expression, "Like who is this guy?" LOL. So the night was not all lost, how many kids get to have photos with LK in them?

That surprises me... glad to see it.. I always thought Larry King wouldnt be very personable...good to see I was wrong!

I can't believe how big they're all getting!

Too funny that you met Larry King. If/when I ever make to LA, I will be the ultimate in gawking tourist if I see celebrities.

I am so so glad you're blogging again. I have a few MUST READS every single day, and now that you're back, I'm happy! Yes m'dear, you are one of my MUST READS! Whatever will I do if I manage to get picked for The Biggest Loser? I won't be able to read my blogs. You'll have to print out your posts and MAIL them to me! *lol*

And Larry King? How awesome is that!
