Fun Times w/Good Friends

Over the weekend we shared some fun time with friends. Our neighbors/walking buddies who moved away had us over for dinner. We had a wonderful ham dinner that was delicious and yummy oreo cookie cheese cake for dessert. Dylan & Aaron are a year apart and miss the dickens out of each other. The boys had so much fun playing together. We spent the night and spent most of Saturday at the park which is just one house away from their home. Dylan LOVED Aaron's john deere truck and we all had a blast with the water gun soakers. Let's just say no body left the park dry that day. Thank you so much Aaron, Deb & Aaron for the wonderful time. Your house is beautiful and cozy and your cooking was out of this world. We look forward to our next gathering. We miss you guys so much!

Super soaker time

Water boys- on a mission to get more water for their guns.

Dylan "thinks" Santa Claus is going to bring him one of these. Well at least that is what he is hoping for. Little does he know Santa is broke, nothing wrong with dreaming I told him.

Summer Swim Lessons

Lessons are almost over.... Dylan has been in lessons for about 5 weeks. He has done awesome and is totally loving the pool and swimming. We have spent lots and lots of nights in the pool. I just wish it was more refreshing. We feel like it's more of a bath than a pool. It is soooooo hot here!

California Vacation & "The Happiest Place on Earth"

We rented a Beach condo in Oceanside, CA & the front door was about 100 feet from the ocean. How sweet it was. The condo grounds were so beautiful with colorful flowers, waterfalls and even fish ponds where you could feed the fish. We had a fun filled week. Here is a run down of the events we fit in:


*Soaked in the rays on the Beach of course, flew a kite, built sand castle's
*Watched beautiful sunsets, walked the longest & oldest wooden pier almost every night
*Jeff & my Dad played a round of golf in the hills (literally)
*Disney Land- The Happiest Place on Earth
*California Adventures
*Coaster Ride (Train trip) to Old Town San Diego
*Window Shopping (to broke to buy anything) in Carlsbad, this is where we picked up the train
*Whale & Dolphin Boat Ride


The beach was gorgeous, it was cool and the air had moisture. Dylan absolutely loved the ocean. Disney Land was amazing. California adventure was tons of fun. We were so excited to take Dylan, all in all he had fun but was a little overwhelmed and did not like waiting in the long lines & we witnessed a puss face from time to time. Dylan really enjoyed the train ride, it was his first train ride too. Old Towne San Diego was nice to stroll through. We visited the candy shop of course and watched them make salt water taffy. Dylan thought that was cool. We were about a 15 minute walk from the Marina & Harbor so we enjoyed good fish dinners and browsed the shops. We took a boat ride and we were very lucky to see a whale and enjoyed watching the dolphins swim right under the boat. Dylan's first boat ride, he was so excited we left the marina and about 10 minutes into the ocean he crashed and slept the whole time. He was tired I think the week was catching up to him. We walked the beach, flew a kite and watchend some really nice sunsets. We had a blast and were so sad when it ended. Enjoy the photo's
