Labor Day weekend

I've been meaning to blog for a while but I've had a lot going on. So I'll start back from Labor Day weekend. Had a great weekend. Full of many fun events. Friday night we went to Disneyland with some of our close friends, the Billingsleys. We stayed out way past the kids bedtime (left around 9:30 or so) but they recovered from it okay. Here are a couple of cute pictures of Van and Emily (her hair was a little crazy that night). We'll have to get some pictures of Jack and Ava together next time.


Matt and the kids at Snow Whites wishing well

Saturday morning we went to McKayla's birthday party at a park in Brea. We had a great time. Isn't she adorable....

USC football has finally started and my husband couldn't be happier. It's kind of refreshing to hear football playing in the background all day on Saturdays. Don't get me wrong, I say refreshing because Matt really enjoys it and by Saturday I've had enough of Mickey Mouse and Little Einsteins playing in the background. But it is really annoying and frustrating to have him glued to the TV and have to fight with the TV to get his attention. Nonetheless, a fun time of year of my husband and my side of the family. They are all big, die-hard USC fans.

GO TROJANS!!

Saturday evening we had a goodbye potluck for Adam and Megan. We are sad to see them go. They are delightful people and they have beautiful kids. We wish them well in Clovis and know that they will come to visit soon. Here is a picture of Emily and there 2 girls at a recent playdate. They loved dressing up when they came over.

Monday (which was Labor Day) was another busy day. Bryan and Matt spent most of the day hiking (in Trabuco Canyon) and the kids and I went over to Stan and Ivy's house (my in-laws) to go swimming. Late afternoon, we had a BBQ at our house with the whole family. It was a busy weekend but a lot of fun!
