Summer 2015
Oh my goodness I am the worst blogger on the planet. I can’t
seem to get anything done within a reasonable amount of time anymore. I have
been taking pictures, actually getting some of them edited and I now have a few
spare minutes (the only good thing about teething, my little man is sleeping a
bit more) and I am going to post as much summer fun as I can.
First to kick off the summer we celebrated the graduation of
two friends April and Genevieve from college with a Redneck Party, no need to celebrate
too seriously since they were so serious about finishing this accomplishment.
Next Terry, Allison, William, Tim and I were lucky to go to Disneyland
for the start of the 60th Anniversary Diamond Celebration. There is
a brand new updated Electrical parade and a whole new fireworks show. The kids
were mesmerized and I am always so happy at Disneyland.
Then we showered Katie and Mike with love and presents for
the new little baby coming their way. Friends from Big Bear, Palm Springs,
Orange County and Riverside County came to celebrate with the happy couple. Noelle,
Kathy, Zaira and Sarah used their creative talents and made the Little Monster
theme come to life.
Update: They welcomed their little (9lbs 10 oz) baby boy,
Daniel James, on August 26th.
At the end of July Lake Havasu City called and we answered
with giant sighs of contentment. Blue water, red sand and white wispy clouds
welcomed us to the burning desert. I will always love it out there. Every time
I go my love affair with it’s beauty just deepens.
Every August the circus comes to town and we always go to
enjoy it. I love the performing animals and acrobats but I think my favorite of
all is the human cannonball. I just love it.
Throughout the entire summer the kids got to hang out with
their cousins. Endless summer days at the beach, where little toes and belly
buttons browned in the California sun. The boys also started football this
summer and we went to a couple of scrimmages. My kids enjoyed running up and
down next to the field with their toes in the grass.
On the last weekend of summer Disneyland had their annual
employee event Little Monsters to celebrate Halloween. We were lucky enough to
attend, again, with Uncle Tim! Allison loves going and I just love watching her
parade around the park in her costumes.
Today is September 22, 2015 and it is the last day of
summer, tomorrow will be the start of autumn and I hope cooler weather. Thank
you to everyone for a fun and lazy summer, my most favorite kind.
