Yes, I am the WORST blogger in the history of blogging. We have been enjoying our summer and all that southern California has to offer. We have been spending a TON of time at the pool, the beach, the park. The cousins from Chicago came to visit for the first part of the summer and the children had the BEST time together. There were several trips to Legoland, Disneyland, a hike up Torrey Pines, and fun at the pool. We also had grandma and grandpa come visit and the children really enjoyed their special time with the grandparents.


The children have been in swim lessons for most of the summer and are doing fantastic! Ellery is pretty much an independent swimmer now and Dane is a dare devil who thinks he is an olympic swimmer. Darin has been working like crazy, but taking a little time to enjoy the golf course, too .


I am feeling sad that summer is coming to an end in two short weeks.......I may feel different as the time to return draws near(the children are getting a little cranky).
