Girls Weekend

We celebrated Sherry and Missy's birthdays wine tasting in Santa Ynez.  We played slots at Chumash Casino and visited Sunstone, Brander and Roblar Wineries.  We had the best dinner at Root 246 in Solvang, danced at Mavericks and caught up on all the happenings of our busy lives.  Couldn't ask for anything more... beautiful weather, big winnings, best friends and great memories.  Let's make it a tradition and do it again next year!

Can't wait to do it again next year!  Thanks Sher Bear for a wonderful weekend!!!!!

Camp Pali

Saying goodbye to Gigi for 3 days was tough but I knew she was going to have a great time at Camp Pali in Running Springs.  The kids did science projects, obstacle courses, a night hike, a rope course and CSI investigation.  Their days were packed with fun activities and they loved every minute of it!

Walk Through The American Revolution

Gigi, Isabella, Katie, Cameron, Jamie, Max, Logan and Chris

Gigi and her 5th grade friends entertained us with their Walk Through Revolution presentation.  The students actively participate in a lively retelling of our nation's beginnings.  Through the use of games, music and storytelling history comes alive.  Gigi dressed up as Ben Franklin and all the students explore famous events, historical figures and relevant vocabulary in American history. 

Jessie's 10th Birthday

She woke up happy as a clam and ready to rip into her presents.  It's a family tradition to open presents with everyone 1st thing in the morning.  Next, she played hooky from school to have a 'mommy and me day'.  We headed to Jamba Juice for a sweet smoothie then to the salon for mani's and pedi's.  After that we grabbed lunch at our favorite pizza place, Pedones and ate by our favorite place, the beach!  After lunch, Jessie wanted a massage so we did exactly that! Finally, we spent a little time at home before a special Mom and Dad dinner at Black Bamboo.  The day was filled with fun, laughs and lots of love for our birthday girl Jessie Joy.  We love watching her grow into a beautiful, smart, funny, caring, sporty, sassy, fun loving girl.  She has tons of friends and a contagious smile.  She's a tough cookie with a sensitive heart of gold.  We love you to the moon and back and hope you have another amazing year!

Sunday Dinner

Tonight we had a fun family dinner at Blue Water Grill and since it's the day before Jessie's birthday we decided to celebrate our little brown eyed girl.  Jesse S. joined us too.  We love you Jessie Joy!
