Maddy time!

Oh how the kids adore their big cousin Maddy! We really enjoyed our townhouse in La Jolla. It not only was beautiful but it was close to Bishops where she goes to school and is on the polo team. Linda, Mark, the children and I enjoyed playing a little ball at her school as well.

Friends

We enjoyed a nice dinner with Mark's best friends and our families.

Family time

We enjoyed some family time at the beach. The kids had so much fun running and playing, building sand castles, making tunnels in the sand, remembering loved one's, but mostly just cherishing the moments we have together.

Grandpa Bruce, Lawren & the Boys

Grandpa Bruce and Lawren took the boys on a fun several days and nights of adventure. We took the boys to there house and Lawren had made a nice breakfast for us. Later that day they took the boys to Sea World. The next day they enjoyed a balloon parade downtown where they got to ride the trolley and visit Old Town. We also met up at Viejas and had a pizza and bowling night. They made many fun memories!

San Diego, CA Beach & Family time

December 24, 2012 We enjoyed our first morning in San Diego playing on the beach and flying kites despite the cloudy, cool weather.

We worked up an appetite playing on the beach so we found a nice pastry shop for brunch. Jennifer loved her warm chocolate pastry!
