Fun Day at the Patch with the Boys
































































It was 90 degrees that day at the Pumpkin Patch in Del Mar! The boys had sooo much fun. Owen's favorite part was the giant slide and Jack's favorite was the petting zoo. He kept trying to feed all the animals hay, it was really cute. And you can never go wrong with little boys anywhere there is a choo-choo train!

How Cute are my kids?....seriously.







Connor all grown up!





I just had to brag that my 3rd grader just finished book 7 of the Harry Potter series. When summer started, we tried to get him motivated to read. We told him that if he read all seven Harry Potter books we would pay him $5 per book. Well, once he started, we couldn't get him to stop. He was reading sometimes 5-6 hours per day. He loves Harry Potter so much that he is dressing up like him for Halloween. I also wanted to show some of his Lego creations. He is sooo stinkin' creative. I loved this plane design he came up with. I think we are going to send it into the magazine. What a smart kid!

Courtney writes the Tooth Fairy


In the last several weeks, Courtney has lost a lot of teeth! She decided to write the tooth fairy and ask her some questions. She asked what her name was, if she was a boy or a girl, and what island she lived on! To her surprise, the tooth fairy wrote back. With the help of my clever friend Deidra, we came up with some good answers. In no time, Deidra found the name "Fatina" on the internet which means tooth fairy in italian. We decided that she lived in Pearltopia since everyone loves pearly whites, and of course a fairy has to be a girl! I cut some hot pink cardstock into a cute design, wrote very small and then sprayed it with glitter. Courtney woke up extra early the next morning to find a personal letter from the tooth fairy!
