Just the same ol' same ol'

Well, school is in full swing, it's still hot and feels like summer, and Nathan still enjoys pulling all the kleenex out of the box and throwing them all over the floor. Not much new here!

Do Not Wear White.

Labor Day is officially....OVER!

We had yet another great camping trip this weekend. It started out a little rugged. The campsite was beautiful, great views, but H-O-T and we had a plague of FLIES! And then...once the meat got cooking, or any food for that matter...YELLOWJACKETS! Ugh. I just don't do bugs well. Nathan got stung at breakfast the first day, then we noticed there was a nest right in the middle of our spot! Jason wisely whisked us down the mountain for the day and we went to Pebble Beach. A good decision, it made our days much more pleasant. There was an astronomical observatory at the campground which made for some great star and planet viewing at night. Things turned out fine and the boys had a terrific time, which makes it doubly fun.

It's the First Day of School!

We made it! Summer is over and the first day of school is here!

There are now a first grader and a senior preschooler in the house. They were so excited to go today, what a change from last year when I was chasing Wesley around the courtyard so I could drag him to class. haha They did great today and were happy to see their friends again.

I enjoyed spending three hours ALONE with Nathan! My little buddy!

Weekend Update

We've all had colds except Jason, so it had been a long week. We decided to get out on Saturday. Half Moon Bay had great weather and we spent the day at the beach!


Then we went back home and spent the evening playing video games and eating pizza. Hey, what a party. The boys love a night like this!


Wesley took this picture of Nathan. I just love it. I can never get enough of that face!


This is our last week of summer vacation. I can hardly believe we made it! Wesley is SO looking forward to going back to school. He misses his friends and the stimulation. I miss hearing his little voice speaking Spanish. I am looking forward to fall too.

In a Bad Mood?
