Vacation/Summer Update

We returned last week from another WONDERFUL week at Lawrence Welk in Escondido. It is not exotic or particularly fancy, but we absolutely love it there! We went to Legoland, a Padres game and had some visits from friends and family.  The rest of the time we played at the pool and enjoyed some quiet family time without any interruptions from work--ahhh, so nice! Here are some pictures from our trip...

Summer has been speeding by! Savannah starts school in 3 weeks-- crazy!! I am starting to realize that this next year is going to be quite busy... Dylan is going back to preschool in September, I have a new job, I am chairing the annual fundraiser for Savannah's school, co-leading Savannah's girl scout troop & serving on the PTA board at secretary. YIKES!! Wish me luck!  And I just had to share this picture of Dylan on the 4th of July-- it makes me smile every time I look at it :-)

Disney Brunch

 Last weekend Savannah got to attend an amazing Disney Brunch put on by all the teacher's at her school. The teachers donated the brunch for the school fundraiser and a handful of parents all went in together and bought it during the live auction. It was absolutely wonderful and the teachers completely out did themselves... just another testament to the fabulous school we get to attend!!
