Soccer Is Back!!

This is Reese's second year playing soccer and I can not believe a difference a year makes. She is having a great time with her friends and loves scoring goals!! She was hoping for a pink or purple uniform, guess there is always next year. Go Blue Dolphins!!!

Hudson starts preschool!

Hudson just started his first year of preschool. He is loving it so far and I can't tell you what a relief that is!!!! He goes three days a week for a few hours, which is perfect. His school is small and quaint, the teachers are so loving. I can't believe both of my kids are in school, I am trying to embrace this next chapter of my life but I do get sad when I see how big they are getting.

A few days before school started I took Hudson school shopping and to lunch. At lunch we were practing writing his name, look how good he did!

First Day of School!

Go Angels!!

On Labor Day we were invited to go to an Angel game with some friends. The kids had the best time rooting on the Angels and eating lots of yummy treats! Dan and I love taking the kids to sporting events and I hope they will develop a love for sports like we have.

Kindergarten con't...

Reese is loving Kindergarten so far!!! She picks out her own clothes the night before and even helps me pack her lunch. I thought for her first week of school I would snap a picture as we head out the door. Reese is a planner and I promise you she planned her own outfits and picks out how she wants her hair!

Day 5

Off to Kindergarten She Goes!!

Reese's first day of school went great!!! She was so excited to meet her teacher and make some new friends. Gabriella, one of Reese's friends, is in her class so both girls were happy to have each other. I couldn't help get a little teary eyed, but as I watched my little girl walk off I was so proud of how confident and ready she was to start this new adventure :)

She picked pancakes and strawberries for breakfast!


All ready to go!

Palm Desert....Again!!!

We spent a few days in the desert with Dan's family. We did the usual pool, water slide, activity center, and dinner at Las Casuelos. This time Hudson went on the water slide all by himself!! We love coming to Palm Desert and I hope our kids will forever treasure all the wonderful memories we have made here :)

I am so lucky to have such a great Husband and Father to our kids!

Hudson loved playing wii in the activity room!

Until next time Palm Desert...

Swim Competetion!

Reese has been doing swim competitions for a while now but this past one Hudson competed in his first one. We are so proud of our little swimmers!!!

Taylor Swift Concert :)

We had an amazing time at the concert. Words can't even describe what a great night I had with my daughter and Mom, I will never forget it! Reese rocked out the entire night, singing and dancing along to ALL her favorite songs :)

My little cowgirl all ready to go!!

I can't wait to see Tyalor Swift again! She was amazing!!!
