Fun Times






These are some fun pics of the boys, just hanging out at home. Keegan is sitting at his desk in one photo-- READING to the family!! Yes, reading, a simple-word story with sentences. Pretty exciting. In other photos, he is doing a poster for his class room-- it's all about him and his family. He and Tustin woke up early last Sat. morning and started working on it together, all by themselves. He gets very excited about his school work.

Cabrillo Monument






We had a fun President's Day! We decided to take advantage of beautiful, sunny San Diego, and be local tourists. We walked all around the Cabrillo lighthouse, gift shop, checked out the views on both sides of the point out there. Didn't see any whales passing by, but we were looking. Daddy had to work, but Nonny joined in on the fun.

Beautiful Day in San Diego






It must have been 80 degrees on the coast in San Diego last weekend. We had a wonderful time exploring the light house and the surrounding areas.

Tide Pools



Well, the tide was too high, but we went down there to take a look anyway! Beautiful day!

Chuck E Cheese's





Went to a birthday party this month at Chuck E's. It's a bit crazy there... but the kids LOVE it!!!

Chuck E's





Train driving, space shooting, you name it, they enjoyed it!

Disney On Ice!





Keegan, Tustin, Nonny & I were all super excited to go see Disney on Ice this past weekend! Daddy had to work, so Nonny gladly filled in for his ticket. She mentioned something about not being at the Sports Arena since a Neil Diamond concert in 1969.... but that was BT! (Before Tif) So, we walked around, checked out some of the vendors, got the kids crazy blue slushy drinks (which not only turned their entire mouths a deep shade of blue... but just think about what came out the other end on the toilet the next day!!) We got our popcorn and settled down for the show to begin-- they both loved it, all the way through! Tustin got a little antsy in the last ten minutes, but other than that, all four of us really enjoyed it!

What Characters!





Yes-- including Tut and his new do! We had a blast seeing Mater, and all the other Cars characters; Tinkerbell and all the other pixies in Pixie Hallow; Aerial the Little Mermaid; and Simba and Nala, and all the other characters from the Lion King!

I Walked Right In to That One!

It was time for a little book reading before bed last night. But, since Keegan wanted to spend so much time on homework, I told him to pick just one book. He picked a big book about birds... like ones that bird enthusiasts read (he had asked Santa for it a couple of years ago). I said "Keegan, that's not a book that has a story or anything to read..." he said he knew that. So, I told him to pick 3 birds that we could read about, and then bed time. I must have sounded super excited, because he said "What mom? Don't you like this book?" I said "Ya, well, I like reading stories to you, and... uh, I just don't know so much about birds I guess." Here's the "I walked right into that one" part.... He looked at me, and simply stated, "Well, I guess we better read this one more often then!"
