Adventures in the Kitchen

Jason made dinner. He likes to warm his tortilla chips up under the broiler. Next time he needs to watch them a little closer!
The boys thought this was pretty cool.
Another year of the all day three rounds of golf! Jason, Aaron, Caleb and Shane. See ya next year!

Life

Hanging out in the kitchen!
Nora, kind of by accident, started to collect stuffed hippos! These are her three biggest.
Benjamin's friend Ryan loves our guinea pig. He also LOVES frozen strawberries which he enjoys to the fullest (you can tell by the smeared strawberry on his face).
Seven kids, one stuffed hippo, one guinea pig all crowded around the computer. Oh the age of technology.

Carlsbad Part 5

We stayed right on the lagoon. Jason and I went kayaking, he also took each of the kids out. So much fun!
It was quite a hike to get down to the water. There was a little deck we could sit on and enjoy the view.
Nora and Winston spent quite a bit of time collecting crabs in this cup.
Winston would locate them and Nora would pick them up.
One of them pinched her finger so hard it left it's pincher pinched on her finger. She was NOT happy!

Carlsbad Part 4

Another day on the beach...


Carlsbad Part 3

We went to the beach for an afternoon. Benjamin collected all these rocks.
The kids made a sand tower and then practiced their jumping skills. We did get in the water and use the boogie boards. We love the beach!


Carlsbad Part 2

The pool was a big hit on our vacation. We loved having the hot tub. The pool was heated and some how the temperature got set so it was really warm. The kids were in the pool A LOT of the time!




Carlsbad Part 1

We went on vacation to Carlsbad with Jason's family and had a great time. The house we stayed in was great, huge, amazing. The master bedroom shower had six shower heads and a steam room. Our family all piled into the steam room and captured this great photo!
Emolyn was as cute as can be. We spent time sitting around the pool.
Popo enjoyed his breakfast and newspaper. He wears this hat often.
Jason chilling by the pool. He loved reading this book Shawn gave him about speed racing.
I asked Benjamin to take a few photos. Here is one he took. I love that kid!

The Quilt

Jason's Grandma made me a quilt awhile back. She hand pieced mine, it is beautiful. GG made Jason one as a surprise! He loves it!
