Summer Trip to California

We escaped the Las Vegas heat and went to California to take in some sand and surf. Matthew is digging his way along Redondo Beach.

Lauren soaked up some rays in Laguan Beach.

Our really good friends Bailey and Daniel planned their trip to Laguna the same time we did... it's much more fun with friends!

Only one morning was a bit foggy but it was nice to walk along the beach and find crabs when it wasn't so hot.

By the time we finished our walk, the sun was out and Lauren's hair was in full CURL!

Someone thought it would be a good idea to chaperone 35 high school band students to Disneyland along with our own children. We are sitting- exhausted- waiting for our bus to arrive and take us to the hotel. It was a long day!











Molly and Zoe are our 2 new additions. Very cute but lots of trouble! :)


Matthew loves these little girls and they follow him all around the house.


Matthew graduated from Kindergarten and is thrilled about going on to first grade. He thinks there will be less "high pitched screaming" in first grade.


Of the 25 kids in his class, there were only 6 boys. Maybe that's why there was so much "screaming..." so many girls!!!


Another graduation for me as well. Just finishing my 11th year in Vegas... and still loving it. These were a couple of my students who came in for math help every day. I'm not sure how much my math skills helped them... but obviously they are in caps and gowns so I must have done something right!

Once a year we try our hardest to take one good family photo. Here it is. December 2007.
