Saying Good- Bye... is never easy

Our family had a wonderful time in San Deigo this past week.  We stayed in Mission Valley which was close to everything we wanted to do.  I got to visit my favorite store on Friars Road...The Container Store.  Play at the beach, play a little tennis with the boys, swim and soak in the hot tub, and visit a museum.  We scored with a free hotel (thank you government), $25. food credit per day, Free breakfast (thank you diamond rewards) and per diem.  The only downside to the whole trip was the long drive home by myself ( I made it home in 13 hrs. - with four pee stops (Caffienated beverages can do that to ya).

Next time, Daddy will not be working while we are playing.

A little history lesson

Mormon Battalion Historic Site

Old Town San Deigo, CA

This musuem is well done and very interesting on all levels.  The boys had a great time and learned a little too.  I thought is was an A+ excursion.

Fine Dining

We were well feed and kept the sugar levels consistent.

A little R & R

Tennis anyone?

A winter Project

Benny and I 'upcycled' this side table.  We found it at Linda's house on its way to the DI.  It has quite a story behind it and was glad to give it new life in our home.  It is perfect for storing our FHE supplies.  And, quite frankly...I Love It!

Danny are Grandma Dewsnup are working on technique at Alta today.  Wish I was with them. (I've already had my fair share of technique lessons from mom) 

this is not time out

Colin is not in time out, but sleeping on the yoga mat after a tough game of Wii.

Time Out

Sent Jake to his room for misbehavior.  Later, I found  him asleep hidden behind his pillow sitting upright against the wall.

Yogurt Pops

Plain yogurt + blueberries + powdered sugar

Yummy treat and probably less than 100 calories.

On a cold winter day...what do you do?

you play Wii
