Creative Isabel

Isabel asked me to take her picture. She didn't want to give her 2nd grade teacher an old one. My beautiful girl!!!Isabel has always loved blocks since she was very little. She calls everything her creations and this one is NO exception! She wouldn't let anyone near it until it was photographed :)
I think that's a hair band holding sleeping beauty to the box??? Not really sure what she was creating this time.
Cheese!!!

First Day of School!

It's time for school again...but this time I said bye bye to THREE!!!They had their clothes and bags ready to go the night before. We didn't want to be late on the first day of school.Katie walking to her class. This year she is in 5th grade and Mr. Pennel is her teacher.
Isabel is excited to start 2nd grade. Katie is happy because Mrs. Sanchez was her 2nd grade teacher too. Lily is finally starting Kindergarten (as she would say). She has waited a long time for this day... to go to school with her sisters. She has Katie's Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Harvey :)Cleo along for the ride!Lily's first time riding the bus with her big sister. Izzy was mad because they made the Kinders sit in front so they couldn't sit together :(They are so cute!!! Katie is well trained now. She automatically poses before getting off the bus on the first day of school...but I'm not saying she doesn't throw a little attitude doing it!
....and another picture for the books :)
Katies soccer practice. This will be her 6th year playing soccer. WOW!
Coach handing out uniforms...
Can you believe it?...Katie is #4! She's not the shortest player anymore!!! YAY! She's growing up :)

Family Life

This is how my kids enjoy the garage when Chad is working out. They play with his cell phone and lay on the bean bags. On a nice day they also ride bikes and run around with friends.
She looks so comfy!
Lily
Izzy came in my room and said her tooth was really wiggly. Chad barely touched it and it fell into her mouth and she almost swallowed it. He had to tip her head forward and the tooth fell in his hand along with lots of blood...GROSS!!! She started laughing and I happened to have a camera right on my end table. The blood is so fresh...ewwww!!!
Bagged up and ready for the tooth fairy to come :)
The confused look...Huh???
Cleo steals a kiss from daddy!

Lily's First Soccer Practice

Learning the Basics!...Kicking the Ball!
Izzy is just watching her sisters play this year. She said she likes softball better :) That's fine with me...having two playing soccer is more than enough! Lily wanted to play last year but wasn't old enough. She is so happy to be playing.
Sisterly Love
Bright Green!!! Well at least I can always find her team!
I love this girl :-)

Palm Springs

We finally got out of dodge for a few days! It was way overdue for our family. We desperately needed some time away. Every summer Chad's parents go to the Desert Springs Marriott Resourt and the last time we joined them we were barely married! The kids were so excited and also because Kristen and Eric were coming with their kids. Chad was happy to play golf every day with his dad and I was just looking to relax.
We stopped and ate lunch at Chillis before heading to Palm Springs. The girls already had their bathing suits on. They wanted to swim right away when we got to the resourt.
...but first it's coloring time with Grandpa Dan before the food comes.
Lily just wanted her food.
Smart Baby!....reading the menu already!
Yay...Vacation!
Cousins hanging out at the resourt.
Most of us....Izzy, Isaac, Grandma Pam, Halle, Me, Katie, Gavin, Lily & Kristen
It was a great time even though Lily hit her head flipping into the pool. She cut her head and they put dermabond (liquid stitches) on the cut. What's a vacation without an E.R. visit? So thanks Lily for giving us a free nights stay! Way to take one for the team!!! :)
