172/365 ~ Soaring

Had a ton of fun with the capes the kids got at Magic Mountain and the trampoline. See more Soaring pics here.

171/365 ~ Wax Lips

I don't even know where she got these but she had a lot of fun with them!

170/365 ~ Outdoor Enjoyment

So much you can do during the summer months, including taking board games out to the picnic table in the evenings. And eating ice cream while playing is definitely a bonus!

169/365 ~ Magic Mountain

Headed south to Magic Mountain. At the gate....

...and after getting saturated on one of the rides!

Both photos courtesy of the "grands".

168/365 ~ Breakfast on the Beach

They spent all the next day at the beach, even getting their early enough to have breakfast!

Another cell phone pic sent courtesy of the "grands".

167/365 ~ Out for a Walk

The kids got to visit Pismo Beach this year courtesy of a set of grandparents. They went sans parents, so this pic was sent via cell phone for our viewing pleasure. Apparently this awesome cut out adorns the beach so when you can't get wet cuz' it's too late, take a fun picture instead!

166/365 ~ Father's Day 2014

They love him, can't you tell?

165/365 ~ His Friend's Performance

One of his best friends since preschool was in a performance of Don Quixote and we got to watch him. Pictures were not allowed during the show, so I had to settle for this quick pic afterwards. 

164/365 ~ She Hijacked the Camera #4

She loves the fisheye setting on my camera.

163/365 ~ Skippolini's

Cell phone pic, not the greatest BUT we couldn't let the moment slip away...

We do not have cable or any form of televised tv at our house (yes, we have a tv, but use it for movies and games only), so when the Spurs are playing the Heat in the NBA finals and the games are really, really good we just can't miss out on all of them. So out to eat we went, to a place where we could watch most of it.

Three out of four of us were very entertained and the one that wasn't chose to entertain herself, LOL...

At the end of the night, the Spurs had thoroughly spanked the Heat on their own home court, winning game four of the NBA finals.

162/365 ~ Last Day of School

Last day of school of the 2013 - 2014 school year. Both kids performed in the band playing "Pomp & Circumstance" for the kindergarten graduation. Awards later in the day revealed that she pulled in a nice Math & Bible medal as well as a Honor Roll certificate.

161/365 ~ A Little Front Porch Reading

Reading to pass the time while the food on the barbecue is cooking.

160/365 ~ Her Saturn Poster

It's odd because, when her brother was in the fifth grade he had to do a few posters to present to the class, but now that she's about to finish the fifth grade, it wasn't required of them. Still a few of the kids decided that they wanted the experience. Guess who was one of those few?

Normally with the posters we go all out. Stencils, scrapbooking paper, markers, etc. but because this one is last minute, as in almost last day of school last minute, she just winged it. BUT she had fun!

159/365 ~ Performing on a Sunday

The kids' school band performed on a Sunday morning at church! This is a privilege that they work hard for each year. He is on the top row, right side, playing the trumpet. She is on the front row in the middle playing the clarinet.

158/365 ~ She Hijacked the Camera #3

When she "steals" the camera and takes the pictures, it cracks me up to see how close she gets to our animals.

157/365 ~ National Donut Day

Gotta love National Donut Day! Especially when Krispie Kreme gives them away for free!

156/365 ~ She Runs the Store

She thinks she's gonna run the store all by herself someday.

155/365 ~ Pre-K Grads

Goofy pre-kindergarten graduates

154/365 ~ Chubby Bunny

There's this end of the school year tradition that Yohn has with his Jr. High chapel. It's called Chubby Bunny. The kids have to stick large marshmallows in their mouths and say "chubby bunny" after each one they put in. If they can be understood, they go on to the next round.

Some of the kids enjoy it and some, well... some just think it's gross!

153/365 ~ Kindergarten Graduates

Kindergarten Graduates of 2014

152/365 ~ Happening at Night

If you look carefully you can see them both. She is on her DS with her headphones on the left and he is on his DS on the right. They have camped out in the yard every night since last weekend when we put the tent up to back yard camp as a family. I hear there are plans to continue to camp for as long as they are allowed.

Oh the stuff memories are made of!
