Last Weeks Silver Lining

School was back in session last Wednesday and our morning ran smoothly, thanks to a pep talk from Dad. :) My oldest was bummed out about going back (somethings never change), but my younger son was very excited, as he was going to begin Kindergarten. I wasn't sure how he would handle it, but like the trooper he is everything worked out great. I was impressed at how he said goodbye to me so easily, sat right down on the carpet and intently listened to his teacher's tour of the classroom; no crying for him or me (believe it or not), just his baby sister, who didn't understand why he wasn't coming home with us. :(
We ended the week on a GREAT note! We headed out on Friday evening to Leo Carillo State Beach for a weekend of camping. We love this place because where you camp feels like you're in the mountains, yet you are a short bike ride to the beach.

We ended our last night with smores and hanging out around the camp fire.


Crazy as it is sounds, with all that happen this last week, I found time to crochet and am 95% done with my Fat Bottom Purse from the Happy Hooker. Think it's time to add the handle and take a pic. :)

Mem looks a little pissed that she's not going to school! Or maybe it's that summer's over! I want to go riding for Rick's b-day next week. I know you guys don't like the weather still, but I thought I'd just extend the invite to you because me and Michelle are on a mission to get those guys talking again. Rick doesn't know about the trip yet, I'll let him know a couple days before the trip so it stays a surprise!
And come by whenever! I'm always worried D's getting anti social!

We actually have plans to visit Bob's friend Alex and his wife on Saturday night. I know Rick mention going riding to Bob and Bob told him the following weekend was better. I'm sad will miss out; I miss going to the desert. Have fun!!!
