Everyone loves a good Fair!

We headed out on a Sunday to meet Uncle Chad and Aunt Amanda to hit the LA County Fair. Food, golf carts, jacuzzis, more food, games, rides, the boys had the times of their lives. The girls had a relaxing day in their strollers, next year ladies.

AYSO!!!!

Here we go! Official organized sports, our lives will never be the same. Brendan is the coach and Maddon is on the Green Hornets. Alot of falling and sliding, but learning the game one Satuday at a time.

Perfect end to Summer

The kids and I packed up and headed to the Colorado River. Brendan had a very important fantasy draft so he stayed behind. Grandma and Granpa were nice enough to let us stay with them and we had a great time!! Lots of water, sand and eating! We can't wait til next year.

the future

Maddon asks me for some assistance in planning his future. First, he lets me know he is going to marry Audrey, a lovely girl from school. Then, I will need to help him find a house that nobody lives in. And he was sure to let me know that they would not be needing cars, since they don't know how to drive. Priceless, and he couldn't have been more serious.

Taking a moment

Being at the beach today allowed me to look at my children and my life, and smile. Watching them grow and explore each in their own way is something I am always so nervous of forgetting, but so proud to be a part of. Something as simple as sitting on the sand watching your daughter eat sand and your son find a shell in the ocean can be such a breath of fresh air. Ahhhhhhh.

Summer is coming

First try with the sand table, its a buffet right?

Can't forget this

So simple, so sweet. Maddon comes in the kitchen and says "Mommy, I super love you"
