1st and 4th!!

 On August 14th, Elsa and Liam headed back to Addison Elementary School for 1st and 4th Grade.

 It was great watching them race to school on their scooters.

 And we enjoyed all the first day directions.

 Liam's teacher took her own picture of him.

 Elsa shared about herself in class.

 Elsa and her table have a fish they are taking care of.

Liam has two 5th grade buddies.

Elsa also bridged to being a Girl Scout Junior and is having fun with her troop.

It is a fun start to the new school year.

Summer 2019

We had a wonderful summer with many great adventures. We enjoyed Family day at Gamble Gardens, where the kids got to explore and play with plants.

We also had many great adventures to Great America, with fun at a big Amusement Park.

We also went to a classic, Gilroy Gardens, for Elsa's favorite, the duck boats.

At the end of summer, the kids got muddy at an a kids obstacle challenge.

And then we ended the summer with our family overnight at Foothills Park.

We had fun a friends wedding.

Arne took the kids on a fun adventure with his family to Yosemite.

And then the kids had lots of fun camps. 

She also enjoyed 11 nights of sleep away girl scout camp, Skylark Ranch.

Liam also enjoyed a number of camps, several of which were in Berkeley, so he got to spend time having good adventures with his grandparents.

 And the big excitement is he lost his first tooth.

It was an amazing summer of family adventures, with lots of ice cream!
