First Day of School Outing

The girls outing to Dear Lizzie for desert after their first day of school

First Day of School

The 3 Amigas after their 1st day of school
Erickell's first day of 1 grade
Oh momma is really having a hard time can ya tell
Neicell on her bus so excited to go to school
"Mom I found my backpack, "said Neicell. "Hmm you had it on when you got on the bus," Momma's concerned. Neicell giggles, "yep we found it on the bus." Here I am fuming "Well, then what did you eat for lunch, remember your lunch was in your backpack." Neicell states nonchalantly, "Oh, the LIFEGUARD gave me a sandwich and apple." Now I am mad, what the heck the "LIFEGUARD" Crazy momma gets on the phone with the bus and her teacher trying to figure our what really happened. So I still don't know who gave my poor little girl lunch and who the "lifeguard" is but she got something to eat and she wasn't concerned at all. Life is always smooth sailing for Neicell not a lot gets her rallied up, thank goodness she doesn't take after me.

Logan







Eric had a conferance in Logan and we tagged along. We/Erickell went fly fishing with her dad while Neicell and I hung out reading and watching TV. The girls and I shopped and played at the park one day. The favorite of the girls was going to the amusement park and riding the BIG swing and driving the go-carts. We had a blast and it was a great end to the summer. The next day the girls started school yuck!



San Diego Getaway

Gaslamp district is where the Petco stadium is and fun shopping
Seaport village shopping and dining

Old Town more shopping and dining. Eric and I found a fun Mexican restaurant


Little Italy was having a Farmer's Market. Eric and I got the most amazing crepes and sat on the roadside and watched people. I am so amazed at all the different people and their DOGS. Holy cow there is just as many dogs in San Diego as people. It made me miss my little pooch. I don't know why so many people move from CA to Utah we love it there.


Padres vs Cardinals game #2







Instead of going out to Coronado Island Eric wanted to go to another baseball game. So last minute we went to another game and got good seats in the same place, right behind the Cardinals bullpin. It was great! Good idea babe

Padres vs Cardinals

After our tour we sat a watched batting practice.
So I kinda found my guy on the team. He told the kids he had a few minutes to sign and they went crazy. It also helped that he hit 2 home runs, and he is kinda cute.

Pujols, leading the MLB at the moment with the most home runs.

Our tour of Petco stadium. For Father's Day the girls and I gave Eric a trip to San Diego and game tickets to the Padres vs. Cardinals. Thanks to Mark who helped me figure out what game. Eric and I had a blast. He said to me it was just as fun as Mexico and Hawaii, boy did I do good. Eric and I haven't been anywhere without the girls for over 3 years. A much needed vaca.

USS Midway-San Diego

The USS Midway (aircraft carrier) was the first stop on our weekend getaway. Eric was so excited to board an aircraft carrier. Eric is a history buff and loves to watch the history documentaries on war. So, this was right up his alley. I definitely enjoyed it but this was such an incredible experience for him. He kept saying "This is so awesome!"


So he thinks....

Day Break Lake




Ashlee and I decided to take the kids out to the Day Break Lake. The kids had a blast floating around the lake, making sand pits, and jumping off the docks. We will definately be going again!!!

Anniversary in Disneyland without the Honey




My cute husband snuck my anniversary present with my parents. He is such a sweetheart. He bought me fins, mask, and snorkel for our trip to Honduras in January. Yippee the kids all loved it and gathered around for the opening. Thank you babe, it was the first year we have been apart on our anniversary but you made it awesome. I love ya!!!
Don't feel sorry for Eric because he wasn't at Disneyland, he was fishing in Idaho and livin it up also. What did Eric get well that's for him to tell.
