Weekly Update

Last Sunday I gave Ashlyn a cute little haircut. I love it!

Jacob painted a Tiger Shark at school.

We had October Break this week, so the kids had no school. We spent the first half of the week playing around the house, going to the park and getting ready for our trip to L.A. We left on Thursday and checked into our hotel right on the marina in Dana Point. The kids were fascinated with the snails that they found.

After we arrived the kids and Rick went and found the beach while I took Abby to the pool. We then all got ready to go to the reception for Ricks cousin. He got married on the beach, but we weren't invited to the wedding, I guess they had to pay per person?? Anyway, Ricks sister Kristy and brother Rob were both in the wedding. Here's his sister Kristy, looking pretty! You can see Rob in the background. 

On Friday we woke up and walked across the marina to a little kayaking rental place. We rented one kayak but the guy actually let us use two, so Haley and her cousin Kaylee took one out and Rick went out the Jacob and swapped Ashlyn and Jacob for rides. I swapped Rick for a few minutes and took a turn too. It was fun!

Abby and I then went to go take a nap, but instead she decided to dump Cheez-It's all over the bed, at least she managed to munch on a couple! haha!

We left on Saturday morning, it was short trip but lots of fun!

Getting a quick foot soak before we left.

Today we made our annual Pumpkin man, but we decided to change him into a pumpkin Lady this year. Abby is scared of the pumpkin lady but the kids love her!
