"ROAR!"
Mia wore her winter bonnet during our weekend in Yosemite. She looked darling, but I kind of felt like the mother of a fundamentalist.
Happy campers.
"MEOW!"

Preschool graduation.


Wow. Time slips by quickly these days. We're busy with swim lessons, and karate, and of course, playdates. Mia just had a disco party to celebrate her 5th (paperwork) birthday. The disco party turned into a trampoline party. Samuel loves Justin Beiber, Dora, and anything with wheels. We've got a short summer ahead of us. Mia starts a kinder camp on August 1st. The school has this program to introduce Spanish to the incoming kindergarteners. How do you teach a 5 year old to rush in the morning?

Well, it finally happened...

Samuel found the dress up box.

Sasha, Pat, and Cookie keep a smile on Mia's face
