Feeding the Ducks

Yesterday I took Sarah to the Village for some one on one time after Kindergarten. We had a wonderful time feeding the ducks and of course shopping.

She thought it was so cool that a duck was out of the water and right in front of her.

First Day of School Was a Success

Sarah started Kindergarten yesterday and Samantha 2nd Grade! Both the girls adore their teachers and love school! They look forward to going to school in the mornings.
Sarah so far is doing great in school, we shall see how she does over the next few weeks!

My American Girls

Sarah received her very first Amercan Girl Doll today. Both the girls (including me) received Bitty baby Dolls when they were toddlers, and now Sarah has her very own “Sarah” Doll.
We decided to name her “Sarah” because Samantha has the “Samantha American Girl Doll”. We bought  “Samantha” weeks before they retired her.

Birthday Wishlist -What’s Yours?

Enjoying Some Summer Fun

My girls are so goofy! We finally broke out the tiny plastic pool for the girls to enjoy today. I have so much to do that taking them to the Lake will have to wait. At least they can play and have fun on the back patio!

They begged, and they begged…..

And while shopping the Nordstrom Sale the shoes the girls have been begging for 6 months for were on sale for 24 dollars! They finally got their Skechers for school. I can’t wait for them to see them.

The Girls Rode a Jet Ski For The First Time!!

The girls had so much fun riding around on our friend’s Jet Ski today up at Big bear lake. Samantha is in the picture to the left and Sarah to the right.

We Will NEVER Use Vinyl·isms Again!

I have always been a huge fan of Vinyls. They are beautiful and have such a statement to them. They also bring out some one’s personality in the home. My mother in law loved all the Vinyls have in my house that she started getting them for her home.
This summer she decided we would go [...]
