Camping with the Nemrow's

Every year Blair and Shanna camp at the San Clemente State Beach with their family. The camp site is literally 1 mile away from our old condo so we use to walk over there and meet them for s'mores. This year, we camped the whole weekend with them! Our kids adore each other and adore camping so we had such a good time!...

Tre and Mackenzie

Garrett and Brooklyn

Blair doing what he does best...

Shanna is an insanely prepared camper! She had more food, toys, amenities that any camper could possibly need! We mooched off them quite a bit. Thanks guys!

Playing in the dirt... our favorite.

Tre discovered baseball. Freddy taught him how to stand and "keep his eye on the ball." He stuck with the  technique pretty well!

Love his stance here! ;)

BEFORE....

AFTER! There used to be two.

Mackenzie and Garrett share a birthday so we enjoyed cupcakes!

Princess rings. Brooklyn kept hers on all weekend. She likes large rings like her mama...

Tre's favorite part. Sleeping in the tent.

Tre wanting to play the second we woke up.

Playing Memory.

And of course, Chutes and Ladders.

Beach time. I wasn't prepared for us to spend a day there, but the kids had fun anyway.

I let Knox out of the crib and he loved feeling the sand! Up until he liked tasting it, then I put him back.

Cute Shanna.

Movie time. Much needed on our end.

S'mores baby!

What happiness looks like.

My boys.

Lisztomania

San Clemente High School's dance team asked me to choreograph a co-ed swing number for them. They do one every year. I decided since they were used to doing a standard swing number that I would punk it up a bit. They're doing it to "Lisztomania," my favorite song this year by Phoenix. They're doing great and it's soon to be finished! A great group of kids! (Makes me feel old!!)

Bath Pics... with All 3!! (For future embarrassment...)

So the kids no longer bathe together, but I got a few with them all together a few weeks ago. I had figure we were going to stop soon so I grabbed the camera. I love all of their faces in each one! My sweet babies!

Preschool '10

How has it gone so fast?! Both my babies are in preschool this year! Crazy. I have one more year until Tre's in kindergarden. I'll be milkin' it while I can...

Dru's 70th Birthday

It's official! My Aunt Dru has set the bar for aged HOTNESS! She's 70! I kid you not... the big 7-0! Work it lady!! She had a big party for the event and it was amazing! A night of music, singing, Anna's orchestra... Monica, my mom and I even did a musical tribute to her. So fun! I'm lucky enough to look the most like my aunt in the family, so I'm proud to show off my good lookin' genes. Yay!!

Dru and Aaron.
I love having "Joy" in my life!!
My cousin's, Dru's children (only Lily missing.) I love you Aunt Dru! Thank you for reinventing 70 and giving me something to look forward to! Love you Queen Diva!

Labor Day Weekend '10

Blair and Shanna were kind enough to invite Freddy and the kids on their boat this weekend. The kids have never done it and they had a great time!

Mini Shanna and Mini Mandy.
My Fred.
While Tre was in the water, he told Shanna that he had to potty. She told him, "The great thing about the lake is that you can just pee in the water!"
So he got out of the water and did it from the boat. As you can tell, Tre had a hard time pulling his shorts down with the safety strap between his legs.
Shanna got a kick out of it!
Blair and his skills.

After the lake, I met up with everyone for swimming and a BBQ. I couldn't stay long since I had an event to go to later. We met up with Freddy's high school friend Eric and his wife Stephanie and their kids Johnathan and Lizzy.

I love that Brooklyn as a Pretty Princess friend...
Tre's favorite Woody hat. As always, thanks B&S! we love you guys! Our kids love you too!
