My California Sisters

This picture was taken at Lindsey, my friend Rhonda's daughters, baptism.

The ladies you see here have seriously become my sisters.

I am so lucky to have such amazing friends!

2012-2013 First Day of School

 Tanner is starting his first day of his sophomore year! Where did the time go? He's so handsome! We couldn't ask for a better kid!

Ty's first day of his second year of pre-school. He could hardly wait. This past week before school went painfully slow for the both of us! You can't tell but he's carrying a batman lunchbox and totally loves it!

 

When I pulled up this morning after going to bootcamp I opened my car door and heard, "Mom!  It's Monday!"

I looked up to see Ty standing in my bedroom window.  I wonder how long he had been waiting there for me to come home.  SO EXCITED!!!!

Poor little Isaac is too little for school. He has his backpack on and he's ready to go but will be very sad when we pull away from the school with him still in the car :(

 

Swimming at Aunt Wendy's

Here are the boys wearing their 4th of July shirts my parents send every year.

This is our front yard and thought we'd throw in the Romney sign that's there :)  You're welcome Mitt!

These are the cupcakes I made to take to the BBQ we had at Mel and Sue's house.

We just kinda took it easy in the morning.

It was nice not to be rushing off somewhere.

So we had a lazy day and then went to Huntington Beach for a BBQ and fireworks.

It was a lot of fun!

 The Bakers were there and that's always a good time :)

We are so blessed to be citizens of THE BEST NATION!

Thank you to our service men and women and their families who sacrifice so much to protect our freedom and the lives we so "freely" enjoy.

Discovery Science Center

Here we are at The Discovery Science Center with our Markham cousins.

It's a really neat place for the kids to go and learn about science in a fun way.

Swimming at Steve and Carrie's House

Steve and Carrie, my brother and sister-in-laws are always so nice to have us over to their pool.

The kids love it.

Here they are playing with their Markham cousins.

Fun times!!

Just another day at the beach...
