Calaveras Fair in Angels Camp, May 17th

The carnival rides and the pony rides were a big hit at the fair.

Bath Time

Easter 2009 - a few favorites

Dallas...

Mays...

We enjoyed Easter at Greenhorn with both sets of grandparents.

Enjoying the Spring Weather

Took the boys to ice cream this afternoon - Dallas had chocolate ice cream dripping all over his hand and into his sleeve. They're sporting their new Cal Poly shirts from Grandpa and Grammie - they got a "Go Mustangs!" our front of Whole Foods. A few pics from our afternoon at Rancho San Antonio Park and farm... Drinking from both ends of the drinking fountain!

Sand Box

It was a warm(ish) night tonight, the boys had to go out and use those new BIG shovels after dinner. This sandbox was the best investment! So many hours of fun. Of course it helps to have a never-ending supply of sand to put in it. We laugh everytime we think about what it must look like underneath the deck.

Valentine's Day

Baking cookies at Nana's - it's always questionable, were they baking or eating cookies? Fun regardless (and cute).

Catch of the Day

Peach and Marinchak wrestled a few Rainbows out of the Stanislaus yesterday - amazingly the weather, once they got there, was pretty good.

Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse

Del Frisco's in Manhattan - serving only the best apparently! Thank you to our roving reporter Jeff for sleuthing it out.

"Kids Smell"

I just checked in on the boys, my ritual when I'm on my way to bed. It's funny, their smell has changed. I used to walk in and smell "not so clean diapers," now they smell sweet. Literally. Kind of like candy. And they still wear diapers. What causes that? No complaints. I really like this new smell. Heading back for a second peek (whiff?) and then off to bed.

Ghost Town

Yes it's a bit what the house feels like tonight, John's been in New Orleans for the whole week. BUT, it's actually the movie I just finished watching. I really liked it - you should watch it. It's very sweet and funny and it also made me cry. That could have been me though, I think I just needed a good cry. Tell me if it makes you cry or if I'm just a sap.
