First Grade-Day 1

Mr. Big Stuff had some serious confidence and a hearty demeanor on his first day of 1st grade.....

Pine Mountain Lake-Year #2

Two weeks ago, we came back from our annual trip to Pine Mountain Lake with the Zimon crew. As usual, lots of fun was had. We went fishing, boating, canoe riding, swimming at the lake, golfing, etc, etc, etc. Sam got his fill of mischief and Isabella got to spend some quality girl time with Zoe and Charlotte. This is much needed given the fact that she is normally surrounded by boys twice her age who pretend they are jedi warriors and just attack each other all day. It was a nice change indeed.

Here are some shots of our adventures thanks to Aunt Teri's fotog skills ('cause someone I know has some real placenta brain and forgot the camera).....

Palmdale Thunder!!!!

A few weeks ago, Sam's cousin, Rey, had a soccer tournament in Davis. We drove up for the day and watched the Palmdale Thunder in action. We all had a great time. In between games, we hung out with the team like a bunch of groupies and followed them on their tour of our State capital. While there, we took some funny candids.

But first, below are pics of the cousins observing Rey who will, from now on, be known as "Redhead":






Ever since Sam saw Redhead, he wants to dye his hair red and comb it into a faux hauk. Awesome.

One of the funniest moments of the day was watching Sandy try to park her SUV into a spot by the capital. She couldn't do it. Glenn, the head coach, offered to help. Below is Glenn, in action:




And below is a picture of how much space Glenn's mini van had in order to get Sandy's car in the spot:



Once the parking situation was resolved, we set out to tour the building. We ventured through the display halls, checked out what the offices looked like in the early 1900s and took more funny pictures of the team.
