Zach's Kindergarden Field Trip to Sea World

Zach had his first field trip today and I got to join in the fun with him. He was a little nervous about riding on the school bus, but had a great time. He wanted to sit in the front, I tried to get him to go to the back but he didn't want too...hum. :)) We went around most of the exhibits, seeing the dolphins, Shamu, fresh water aquariums, penguins, polar bears, and best of all, the walruses! They were eating right up close to the window which allowed for some great pictures. We hung out with a few of his friends all day and the last picture is one with his teacher Miss Garcia. At one point we found a grassy area to each lunch and next thing I knew, the boys were rolling down the hills...oh I remember the days!

Trains at the Nursery

Luke and Jillian had the day off from school for President's Day. We started the day off at Pump It Up, an indoor inflatable jumpy extravaganza. Then across the street is a local nursery, and they have a huge train exhibit in the middle of all the beautiful plants. I had never taken the kids there before and since I knew the trains would be running, we went to take a look. They loved it and thought the trains were cool. Here are just a few pics I took...

Laguna Mountain 2011

This past weekend we enjoyed a day in the San Diego County snow. Mt. Laguna had the most snow and we weren't even sure how much they would have. Much to our surprise, there was quite a bit of snow in the mountains and the kids had a ton of fun. Jillian and Luke said they had to put on their costumes (i.e. snow clothes) to play in the snow. They enjoyed helping to make a snow man and sledding. Zach made a few snow angels and loved eating the snow. Crazy kids. Mom and dad enjoyed a few sledding runs, thanks to our friend's awesome snow sled! The kids got cold kinda fast so they enjoyed getting into Mike's warm truck. We then drove to Julian for lunch and enjoyed warm apple pie! We will definitely have to do this day trip again!

A Few Pictures from Zach's Tee Ball Practice

Zach is finally playing T-Ball now. He got excited about it when he got all his gear. His skills are slowly improving and he is having fun! Luke and Jillian came to watch a practice and they had fun playing with the batting helmets and balls. Zach's first game comes up at the end of the month so more pictures to come.
