First Day of School for 2009-2010 School Year

The kids headed back to Community Christian School yesterday. They had a nice healthy meal of hot cinnamon rolls and bacon for breakfast. They were excited to see their friends from last year and check out their new rooms.
Alexa on her first day as a Third Grader! (in the outfit she assembled from Justice)

Justin on his first day of Kindergarden!!
Justin at his desk. He shares a desk with Zach (we'll see how long that lasts). He is showing Micah the progress he has made on his puzzle. If front of him are Luke & Emma.


Camping at San Elijo State Beach

Alexa & Justin had their first camping experience this past Labor Day weekend. After a fun overnight stay with Grampa & Emmy at the farm in Fallbrook, we bought a tent at Target and camped at the beach. Here are the kids with Dad at their campfire.

Palm Springs-105?

Yes, we made it out to one of our favorite "hot" spots-Palm Desert, this last week! Doug said that the weather report said it was a high of 105 but only felt like 104. That's what we thought~just not THAT hot.



Our first destination was Soak City-such a hit! It was almost empty because so many schools are back in session-it was like we had the whole place to ourselves and rarely had to wait in any lines! Added plus-the clouds rolled in after lunch so although it was still very hot, there was no direct sun!!



Another one of our favorite stops is fortunately just across the street from where we stay at-it's the Palm Desert Marriott. We love to go over and see the birds and ride on the boats. Above is a view back towards the hotel from the boat.

Me & my bitty.
