While We Were in California

After the Mud Run (see previous post) we went to Old Town in San Diego and had lunch with family. After lunch the kids, Steve and I split off from the rest of the family (they went to a baseball game) to walk around Old Town and bought some souvenirs for the kids. (a t-shirt for Devynne and wooden Samarai swords for the boys, I guess boys never out grow swords).

Sunday, we drove up to Laguna beach for breakfast at this little cafe that Steve and I really like called the Greeter's Corner on the beach and then we drove on to Huntington Beach where Devynne and I walked the shops and the pier. The boys headed down to the water for ocean fun.

It was a great weekend and we even took Benny with us and he did great. We took him everywhere with us and he was a big hit with people. The weather was beautiful and it was great just being together. :)

Mud Run in Camp Pendleton

This past Saturday, Steve ran in the Camp Pendleton Mud Run with Mike, Jenn and Nick. They look like they had fun, however, Steve and Jenn aren't sure they will do it again. :)

Graduation Day!

Yesterday Devynne graduated from high school. It was an exciting and emotional day to say the least. She was beautiful and glowing. We are so very proud of her and we are truly grateful to have her as our daughter. Graduation was at 9:00 in the morning and then it was back to our house for a celebration lunch with family and friends. A big thankyou to everyone who came to support her and share this memory with us and everyone who sent love and support by mail. We have great family and friends and we love you all. Congratulations Devynne!:)

Last Day of School

Yesterday was the last day of school. Dakota is now an 8th grader, Dylan is a senior and Devynne is officially a high school graduate.

Dakota and I celebrated by going to lunch with Bryce and Keri Miller and 4 of their kids (Chase, Ryan, Brenna and Connor). Afterwards, Dakota went swimming at Connor's.

Dylan spent the afternoon with some friends swimming at Miranda's and had a great time.

Devynne went to a baseball game after work then went to her friend Marissa's for an end of school shindig.

And now summer begins. :)
