4th and 7th Grade

Here they are! Ready for 4th and 7th grade! Love that Haley isn't looking at the camera.

Summer 2017

It was an epic summer. One for the books for sure! Best summer I've ever had with the kids.

Horse races on Father's Day. A first!

Ryan did swim team with his cousins and friends. Practice every single day plus one meet a week- never one complaint. Ever.

Tahoe- an annual trip. We swam, played, swam, ate, swam...you get the picture. Ryan was the big winner with his 1000 ticket hit!

Hit Yuba City on the way home from Tahoe for some cousin time.

2nd annual Mommy Camp! We were exhausted from the wine and games and laughing and cuisine. Such a rough schedule.


Josh took the kids to SF for the weekend. They did fun touristy things like the wax museum and Ripley's believe it or not museum and Fisherman's Wharf. they even posed with Abe Lincoln!



Concert: The Classic West. Night 1- Steely Dan, Doobie Brothers, Eagles. Night 2- Earth, Wind, and Fire, Journey, Fleetwood Mac. It was beyond amazing and it was music that reminded me of my dad right there in Dodger Stadium. Does it get better than that? The company was pretty great too.







4 (and 5) nights later I was at Bruno Mars for 2 nights in a row! It was a week of live music. 8 performances in 7 days. So spoiled!

Raging Waters- a classic summer activity.


Beach with pals- another classic!



Pinecrest 2017. My favorite trip every single year. The lake was COLD- all snow melt. But we still swam and jumped off the boat and jumped off the rocks.



Yoesmite! The Hoovers invited us to camp from Pinecrest in Yosemite. The falls were off the hook and we all hiked about 7 miles that day. Such troopers!

A day playing at the Tech with Dad.Always an adventure!


Eclipse day with Grammy. So so cool!


Cousin love. I am laughing at the contrast in skin tone.

Speaking of skin tone- look at that tan line.




Summer fun. 2017 will not be one that is ever forgotten. Boy, was it full of fun and adventure.

Captain Underpants with the kiddos!

Nine years ago I was holding this tiny (not so tiny) newborn. We didn't know if whether we'd have a boy or girl. Ryan, you are sweet and sensitive and fun and funny. On this day and every day I sit in awe that you are mine. You are so so loved!
