Moments to Cherish

Picking up the boys from school.




Snuggling in our bed after bathtime and before bedtime. This seems to be a new ritual.




Caught reading in her room...so sweet!

More Trouble!

Perhaps I have short-term memory, but I don't remember the boys getting into as much stuff as Kylie does.  This was in one day starting with some early morning tattoos with Sharpie!  I scrubbed it with rubbing alcohol and soaked her in the bath forever, but it still stayed on.  Next she moved on to my Modge Podge glue.  She added a nice clump to the hair.  I think she thought it was lotion and hair gel.

Go Padres!

We got great tickets to the Padres game from one of Matt's clients, but instead of sitting in the nice seats we headed for the park.  The kids loved playing in the sand.  It was a crazy day with soccer pictures and church so by the time we got there the game was more than half way over.  The people working kept reminding us that at each gate we entered.  It actually was a perfect amount of time for the kids to watch the game, play in the sand, and then head out.  The reason nobody is around us is probably because the score was 1-6 with the Padres losing bad!

Jake Starts Soccer!

Jake is playing on the Lightning Viper Ninjas team for the Lightning Soccer Club.  The second picture is him waving to Nana Di.  He definitely plays to the crowd!  We are looking forward to another great season. Our neighbor Santiago is playing too, and you can see them strategizing in the pics.

Family Day at the Races

Showing our winning ticket!



Free pony rides!

We had a great time at the Del Mar races. The place was empty and the kids had their choice of fun slides and jumps with no lines! And better yet it was free. We went back and forth from watching races to the kid zone.

Spelling Practice

We bought some bendaroos to help bring some fun to spelling practice. I hope it lasts, but most likely I will have to come up with something else soon.

Jake's 1st Spelling Test

Jacob had his first test today!  I was so proud of him, especially since we didn't have time to work on it.  He also got 100% on a math time test.  Now we just have to work on the talking in class....grrrr.
