The Beach

We met our friends Dan & Kim and their adorable girls at the beach a few weeks back. It was an awesome day!

It's Almost Over

Two more weeks of school! Crazy!

Bat Girl reappeared recently when we had a little cold. "She" wasn't sick and wanted to play outside.

Our new pool - ready for summer

Sofie's class has been raising Steelhead to be released in to the Russian River before school is out.

It seems like it was only just summer. Where does the time go?

Shriner's

We made a trip to Shriner's last week for a six month check up. As I suspected, our pal "Sparkle" needs an adjustment for height. She also needs a new foot since her current foot is almost 2 sizes smaller than the other.

This kid is so tough on poor Sparkle! She is so banged up I thought they would surely replaced the entire prosthesis. But no, they said Sofie will keep the socket (the part that used to be pink & sparkly) for a while. Imagine the girly's disappointment when she learned she would be stuck with the orange, scratched, stained leg.

Good ol' "Dan The Foot Man" to the rescue! He is going to let us drop it off one morning for the adjustment, new foot and give it a facelift while we wait.

Stay tuned...it is going to be fabulous!

Around Here

Spring continued!

Sofie went on a field trip with her class to a fantastic nature preserve. They learned all about the native critters and plants and went on an exploratory hike.

We celebrated St. Patrick's Day with green all around and our first choir practice. Our neighbor started a community choir group for kiddos and since the girly loves to sing, she was all for joining.

Spring Break! We did some fun local stuff.

This kid is becoming quite the bocce ball player

Unfortunate Discovery

Some of you may remember we started out blogging on a different site and switched to this blog sometime in 2011. Well, I have just discovered none of the photos and videos we posted prior to switching are displaying.

So, I am working on restoring all the media from 2009 to some point in 2011.

Fun.
