Yes, We Are Still Here!

I resolved not to say, "Sorry, it's been so long, but....." I mean life happens, you know?! I always think summer is going to be easy-going and relaxing, but it ends up being busy, busy, busy. So, I may not have posted since May, but now you get to hear about some of our fun times this summer!

June was a big month for our family--especially Andie! She graduated from Preschool, had her 5th birthday, and had a birthday extravaganza at Disneyland. Please note in the Preschool graduation pictures that Super Duper Cooper is the boy just ahead of her coming out of the preschool. He was also the only invited boy at her birthday party (the others are siblings of the girls that were invited). But, alas, we said goodbye to him for good as he lives in another town therefore will not be in Andie's school. But they will always have the memories!

Andie's 5th Birthday Party

Andie got her hair and nails done at Libby Lu's when we went to Disneyland! What a highlight--she loved it! Be sure to check out Jamis flirting with the princesses!! Hilarious! He already knows how to use those big brown eyes and long, long eyelashes to woo the ladies!

For the 4th of July we braved the beach!! It was almost comical how we sat in a sea of people in the middle of the beach with our tents, umbrellas, and tables along with every other person in the North County, but it was a great day!! We had so much fun. The kids loved getting covered in sand from head to toe, and Paigey just couldn't help herself from putting her face in and chowing down--aahhhh!! Jamis was comic relief for everyone--gee, I wonder he gets that from?

For more of our great summer moments, I'll try and put some photos in a new slide show. It's good to be back!
