09.11.09

A very sad day remembering this horrific attack on our country. Thoughts and prayers for those who died on this day and for those who lost loved ones on this day! Gratitude for our military personnel who are "busting it" to keep us safe and free! T H A N K Y O U!

This was drawn by Paul when he was 5 and in preschool, only a month after 9-11.

Back to School Monkeys!

Why, oh why, is it so difficult to get my kids to be normal for back to school photos? Paul's in 7th, Emilie's in 4th and my "frosting" is in Kindergarten!

Saying Goodbye To Summer...

We said goodbye to summer with a quick trip to Cayucos, filled with lots of family fun and craziness. Kayaking, horseback riding on the beach in Los Osos, hanging out with family in Cayucos and Morro Bay, farmers market in SLO, trying on hats in Beverly's and posing for the pedestrians, mechanical bull riding at Bubba's in Paso Robles and just plain old nutiness!Come on Nana, you know you want to leave a comment!Don't know this guy, but loved his colorful attire!
