School has offically started. Cameron started August 28th at the Lab school again, he is in Pre-K. and Alexin started September 3rd at Myford again, she is in the 2nd grade. Both are loving it so far.

Saying hello to the fish.

The kids got their first year trophies at gymnastics last month.

We had our first family camping trip about a month ago. It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun.

We went with 3 other couples so there were 8 kids total. We were supposed to stay 4 nights, but by the 3rd day everyone was tired and tired of being dirty, well, the adults anyway, (there were no showers at the campground).

Breakfast on the first morning.

First night campfire. We had smores just about every night, the kids loved that.

Playing in the dirt.

Cookie face.

There was a lake, Lake Gregory, not to far from our campsite. The kids had a lot of fun here. They got to ride long boards and go on a paddle boat.

And of course throwing mud. Rowans favorite thing to do, throwing anyting actually.

The last day we were there we went hiking. The kids did so awesome hiking.

Whatchin' daddy's back.

The kids were just caked in dirt. We decided to rinse them off a little before they got in the car.

Camerons not too happy about it.

We've been going to the beach quite a bit this summer. Here are some recent pics.

Waiting for the wave.

Weeeeeee!

Did you see what that wave did to me!!!

We went to Disneyland with some friends earlier this month. We hadn't been in a while so it was a lot of fun.

Look what Bobby bought me!!

Pretty princess!

Watching the parade.

Alexin has been asking for a while to have her hair red, so I took them out to Hot Topic and had them pick out their colors. Alexin loved it and wants to go brighter next time. I told her we will have to wait until next summer since her school wouldn't be too happy about her having bright red hair.

Alexin's birthday

Alexin's 7th birthday was last week. I can't believe how big she is getting.

We went to Jump N Jammin ( a big indoor playplace) for a couple of hours. She wanted to have her birthday dinner at Red Robin and then daddy took them for a night time swim when we got home.

Birthday sundae.
