Thanks Mike!

Nice when my friend Mike stops by to help with the Saturday cleaning. Hey Mike you missed a spot!*

*Mike only comes over after the kids go and he doesn't bring 5 of his friends.

How would the permission slip read?

I _________give my children ________and________permission to look for great white sharks with their grandmother today!

Well, we saw alot of seals( that would be that grouping in the background of the sand/water photo) and we saw people looking from their cars(wimps)...and even the Coast Guard atop the lighthouse looking out for the 5 tagged great whites located here since last weekend. I told Tyler the seals were letting the sharks have their "swim time" so that's why they're all out of the water.
Jennie enjoyed her mouthful of sand, but didn't like having her nose wiped! They both loved the wind! And even took time out for their own version of "Yoga on the Beach!"

Then onto the train display which they both adore...and Grandma was determined to go 3/3 today so we ended w/ our trip to the grocery store! Whew!!! Now for 2/2 on the naps! Jennie has an alternate plan.

Look closely, they're there!

The world's teeniest pigtails!

Happy Start of Preschool Tyler!

Ty had such a fun time! Mommy and Daddy did,too! Jennie is happy for big brother!

I wish I had been there...

...but the word on the street is that Pep had a giant seagull grab his sandwich and 7 accomplice seagulls finish the job!

Some James Time!

James, From the minute you stepped off your bus, we had a fun weekend with you. Going to the park, the lake, the fair...seeing the animals, riding the rides, and watching the "frying pan throwing contest" (which I had to see to believe!) We had a great time and we will see you soon!!! I love you James!
