Vegas, Seattle and Football

I missed this pic of their 1st day of 8th grade.  I think Luke is on his tip toes. 

Nadia and I headed to Vegas to meet Kristin to celebrate her birthday. 

We stayed at Aria, saw Opium at the Cosmo, had lots of fabulous food, lots of great cocktails and lots and lots of laughs.  Love these ladies. 

Ty and Cez.  9th grade to 11th grade. 

A beautiful Friday Night Lights in Coachella.

This is how I find the twins....

We love Sunday naps.  He was snoring and my laughing woke him up.

Ty and Cez went to Blythe to go jet skiing with his family. 

Daisy had a sleepover.

Luke and Mason's 2nd game-a win.

And I headed to Seattle for the weekend with my high school besties.  We rented a boat on Lake Union.

Luke and Mason celebrated their 14th birthday.

Ty had a couple more photos on the Desert Sun website from the game against Citrus Hill.

Mason got to be a team captain and scored a 37 yard receiving touchdown.

More of Seattle walking around Green Lake.

Game last week in Apple Valley.  Cesar's little brother Marcos is on their team.

These boys after our game at Roosevelt on Friday night. 

We celebrated being goofy for Steve's birthday at Trio and Hair of the dog.

The big guy's football pics.  

Of course he had to get one with Cez.

Move of Seattle and my ladies from the 80s.

We had shrimp and crab at Pike's Place Market...and my favorite hot blood orange ginger beer and whiskey.  We also did Crabby Hour at Ettas.  LOTS of crab.  Delicious. 

The ferris wheel is always fun. 

I mean, friends since 1985.  It doesn't get much better than this.  

These girls are fuel for the soul.

Back to the Desert

My dad turned 79 and we celebrated with a fun birthday dinner at Tommy Bahamas.

Flowers from my boys.

Another one of my fave morning pics.

I hosted a fun girls night before Eric got back. 

Ty went to the beach with some football families to escape the heat.  

Ty's first day-Junior at Rancho Mirage High School.  

Luke and Mason started football.

A fun friend dinner at Fishermans.

We hosted a bbq for Ty's team and some families, such great guys. 

Luke and Mason doing their thing with the Lions. 

Ty's first game against 29 Palms.  2 touchdowns, an interview on NBC and on the front page of the sports section of the Desert Sun.  Great Game!!!

Brian, Gaby, Ty, Chelsea, J, Cez & Nathan.

When they score or intercept they get the Rattler Chain.
