Stating the Obvious

Clearly I am taking a bit of a blogging break. I have pictures to post.  I do.  I have blogs to catch up on. I will.  Probably. The weather has gotten nicer. Occasionally. And the kids want to play outside. Constantly.   I just haven't felt like blogging.  But I'm here, all is well!  Summer approaches.  My daughter is "graduating"  from preschool tonight - very exciting and emotional.  I imagine there will be a lot of momma's with misty eyes tonight at the ceremony.  Our kids are growing up so fast!  Too fast.

Yesterday we had a Mother’s Day party at Hannah’s preschool.  All of us mom’s felt pretty honored.  There were songs, food, and gifts galore!  Plus all this amazing artwork: Hannah (with the help of a teacher)filled this out about me.

And lastly a picture of us doing something together: We are driving in the car.  I think my Mother’s Day is complete and it’s not even Sunday yet.

The big kids and daddy put on their parka’s and went to see how many times they could ride the Atlantis ride in an hour and 45 minutes (6).  Eli and I kept ourselves occupied.  We might have done a little shopping. And taken a ride up.  Way up! Later we all joined forces to see the Sesame Street 4D show.  It was great, but a little too much for Eli.  So darn it, dad missed the ending! Then the kids were acting lovey dovey long enough for me to snap some pics. Before we left the girls had time for one last ride. We had a BLAST on our trip.  San Diego is a huge city of over 1,000,000 people but it does not feel like it is so big.  Almost everything is a pretty quick drive and the traffic was not bad at all.  We still have lots we need to see so I imagine we wil...
