Laurie's shower

Our dear friend Laurie is going to China soon to get her precious Hannah and we attended her baby shower today. Angel and a couple of other cuties "helped" Laurie open her presents. They were opening faster than we could even see what was inside!!

Helping Laurie!
Laurie's parents have a beautiful backyard full of organice plants and a pond.

First Day of First Grade

Angel was SOOO excited to start first grade. She got up on her own this morning! I had a few more supplies to take in so I walked her in (can't get away with that much longer!). She had a great first day!


She picked a cute pink princess lunch box








But she still picked a Spiderman backpack!

Beach and dinner


Today we rolled out of bed and hit the beach with some friends. Had a blast for a few hours.
















Later we met the FCC group for dinner. We had a great turn out again this month. I think the kids have a good time.
Talking to Gma before the dinner- visions of the future.

Angel decided to sit in the high chair - go figure.














After dinner, a few of us went to the bookstore. The girls had a blast putting on a pretend "show".

Mid-week fun

Tonight we met our friends J and J for dinner and a little pool time. We went to a local pizza place and the girls were able to play with the dough at the counter. They had a ball.
