San Francisco

In June, BJ and I took a trip to San Francisco without the kids.  We had such a great time, and it was a combination of R&R and some sightseeing.  We also got to catch up a lot with Caroline, which was great.  She was nice enough to drive us around a lot and take us to really good restaurants.

BJ was intrigued by the cable cars. I had been to SF a couple of times, but it was my first ride on the cable cars too. 




We went to a Rangers- Giants game, which was so much fun, especially since there were two home runs and the Rangers won!  The ballpark is right on the water, and the Giants fans were really nice.

Touring Alcatraz


We were just being silly here but turned out to be a cool picture!





As always, a huge thank you to the grandparents for keeping the girls.  They were able to spend time with my mom and BJ's parents, along with cousins.  The girls had so much fun!  I think my mom took more pictures of the kids than we took in SF.  Here are a few!

Summer Fun and Happy 4th

We've been busy this summer!  The girls have been going to the Little Gym, which they really enjoy.  They move so fast that it's hard to get a picture!

 



The girls play together really well most of the time.  Jenna does whatever Sydney does!  I think they were pretending they were in a bus here.

 



We went to San Angelo on the 4th, but Jenna had an ear infection, so we celebrated on the 5th instead!






 




Sydney likes it when I eat lunch with her at school


And she loves to go to restaurants!


Weekend with Jenna

 BJ took Sydney to San Angelo with him so she could hang out with the grandparents, so I had Jenna for the weekend by herself.  It was much quieter than usual, but we had a good time!

We had fun baking- until I turned on the mixer which scared her.

Grumpy girl, missing Daddy


Nothing a trip to Target can't fix!

 

Sea World

In May, we spent a weekend in San Antonio.  We had a great time- visited with friends, went to Sea World, and went to the zoo.  Somehow I only took pictures at Sea World!

 

Sydney's first roller coaster!  This was a really small one in the kids' area.  She loved it.


Then she moved on to this ride, which BJ and Sydney rode many times.  They had so much fun!


Yum... cotton candy!
