Beach fun


We had such a good time on our campout at McGrath State Beach. All of the cousins got to play all week and the adults got to hang out an visit.

Alexis took this picture. I caught her a few times stealing the camera and taking random pictures.
It took Alli a little while to warm up to great grandpa, but once she did she couldn't stop giving him loves.
Lexi and Melena really like to show their funny faces.
Aaron really enjoyed eating the sand and dirt as you can see.This is most of the kids. We were singing songs getting ready for the talent show.
We went to Lompoc to visit my grandpa. Most of us hadn't seen him for a while so it was great to visit.
Isaac was very serious about the sandcastle contest. He won.
Aaron really enjoyed the dirt. I'm not sure he ate anything else all week.

Alexis started school


She actually started the 11th, but I'm just getting around to blogging about it. She has been so excited for school to start and she absolutely loves it. I was so worried that she wouldn't like it, but she gets so excited everyday to go. On Friday I had to break it to her that she couldn't go to school the next day and she started crying. I'm so glad she loves it. I just can't believe I am old enough to have a kindergartner.
