ballet



Class is back in session at Ms. BJ's Ballet Studio. I can't tell if being the teacher to my daughters is going to be useful or not. Class usually starts out just fine until daughter A or daughter B gets some "constructive criticism" or not enough praise. Then a pout sessions begins or a tantrum followed by a door slamming or a dramatic sprawl across the floor, blocking any other dancers from passing. Yes, this is usually how class goes for me and my daughters.


Oh the joys of motherhood/teaching.


Onto another year of blissful ballet classes.

our trip to pacheco


We thought we'd take a nice, relaxing trip up to the mountains to enjoy a Saturday afternoon. It started out well until Garrett thought his "stupid red truck" could make it through the mud. After ignoring the boulders in the road...warning us not to take this road...we got stuck! Not once...but, TWICE! Good thing we had two other 4x4 trucks there to help us out. Thank you Cade and Trent. I think Garrett is finally realizing that his 17 year old truck isn't a "spring chick" anymore.


The Entourage of RED trucks!
My little cuddle bug!
Our little adventure when from bad to worse...we got rained out once we arrived to camp.
We huddled around the table...ate lunch...packed up and came home.
An adventure no one will forget. Memories to last a lifetime.

addiction




Step 1: admitting you have a problem.

Yes, I am addicted to buying swimming suits. I know this problem started the first year I became a lifeguard and it hasn't slowed down any since! Every year I purchase atleast 3-4 new bathing suits. Heck, I'll even buy them in the fall and winter. As you all know, I keep spare swim suits EVERYWHERE because you never know when you'll need one. Well, this year has been no different.

Step 2: INTERVENTION

I need help!! If Garrett sees this post...I'm in trouble. HA. These are some of the suits I have bought this year.

Monsters under the bed!


Tori and Alex were discussing how monsters live under the bed of naughty boys and girls. Alex then told Tori if she lights a candle or uses a night light she will be safe from any monsters. Kids say the darndest things. I love it!
