C-Bad

On Saturday when we arrived in Carlsbad we hung out for a while enjoying the cool weather and then headed to the Coaster Station to take the train to Encinitas for their street fair.  It was a hit with the boys since they all got marshmallow guns...although Mason kept eating all the ammo!

Ty and Roman nicely gave the little ones a ride when they got tired.

Niko and I enjoying the beer garden.

Eric taking all 3 of my brave boys on a very scary ride (mostly scary for me on the ground watching them!)

Sunday morning it was off to explore the tidepools, so cool!!

Thanks Kerri, Niko and Roman for a great start to our summer weekends in Carlsbad!!

Carlsbad Tide Pools

Last weekend we went to visit Kerri, Niko and Roman.  I took lots of pictures and still have to put them up but this is my favorite so I thought I put it up first!!! 

Goodbye Yummy.

It was a sad day on Saturday when we noticed after driving to San Diego and many stops, Yummy and Fetcher were missing from the car.  After Luke loving Yum for 6 years, giving him many hugs and lots of sniffs and basically taking him everywhere he could, Yummy is gone for good.  And I have one heartbroken little boy.  You will be missed Yummy and Fetch. 

Lately.

Luke and Mason have powered thru every one of Ty's games this season, lucky for them there are a few other cool 6 year olds to have fun with!

Devona and I are pretty lucky ladies, the guys we work for treat us well, lunch and a cocktail at Ironwood Country Club. Nice.

Mason attempting to let Eric pull out his tooth, one try and he gave up, it fell out in his sleep but he woke up at 6am, found it and after waking Luke up, came in to show us.  

Ty ran the 800 in the district track meet last Saturday.  He was a champ considering it was 105 out.  So proud of his determination. 

He came in 4th and got asked back for the May 12th meet, he is politely declining, too hot he says.  I so agree my son. 

The boys enjoying a little chocolate milk shake.  Yummy.  They even gave me the last sip.  After I begged that is.....

Swimming at Julie's.

Ty got to pitch on Monday.  He looks so great out there, I love that he loves baseball.  

Headed to the pros...

Easter & Things

Mace in full catcher gear.

Last weekend Eric to Luke & Mace on a hike to Tahquitz falls.  They were champs.

Exploring the waterfalls & tadpoles.

Easter was spent at my parents for some egg hunting, great company and yummy food.

I had to throw this one of Sydney in, she doesn't look too excited for her first Easter.  But she is pretty darn cute.

An attempt at a family picture. 

Much better rendition of my boys.

Mace, Jules & Luke

The above are Vegas again, I tried a new app for a collage.

Saturday Vern had wanted to take Tash and I out for the upcoming big birthdays and Court joined us.  I think the best part of the night was this sunglasses shop, the owner was not loving us after 20 minutes of giggling and messing up the rows.

Stern shop owner in the backgound frowning.

This is what we ended up with, and wore the rest of the night.  Matchbox, Pub and Spa.  Thanks ladies for one fun evening!! 

THE Vegas, part 2

Monday we went to shark reef at Mandalay Bay and it was pretty cool, the kids got to touch stingrays.  

Final game of basketball, trailer pulled up on the strip, door rolled up, table up and a new bar is formed.  Pretty neat.

 Our last night we went to a nice dinner at an Italian restaurant at Paris then up to the top of the Eifel Tower.  

Perfect timing for a show up top.

Wednesday Eric took Ty our riding for a few hours.  I hate how out of order our pics are but here goes...

On the way home from Vegas we stopped off to do some hiking between Amboy and Kelso.

All in all, a great spring break for all of us!
