Carly's New Toddler Bed

We got Carly a toddler bed yesterday. She was so excited and helped put it together. She got all her animals on the bed but once it was time for her to go to bed she wanted to be in the crib. Maybe she thinks it is just a big doll bed. We will continue to talk to her about it and maybe eventually she will give up the crib.







This is a few shots of Sydney's soccer team. It is hard for me to get action shots because I am so into the games I forget to take pictures. And my camera does not take very good action shots.
Anyway, I will try to get a few here and there. Sydney is #8.

A rest after a hard day of school and soccer practice.

This is Rosie - Carly's biggest buddy.

Pics from N Myrtle Beach

We had a wonderful 2 weeks in North Myrtle Beach. I did not take nearly as many pictures as I should have however here are a few treasures.

Happy 4th of July

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. We celebrated here in Huntington Beach. Tony took the girls to the parade while I went to pick up Mema at the airport. We are so glad to have my mom here for the month of July. We grilled out, enjoyed the day and watched the fireworks from the rooftop deck.

Here are just a few pictures of the festivities.

Talent runs in the Family

It has started to be a busy June with all of the kids activities. Sydney gets out of school on the 18th. She will be going through a Junior lifeguard program this summer everyday from 1-4:30. In addition she was invited to join a club soccer team called Gold Coast Xtreme. There are practices several nights a week and several tournaments they will be entering. She also has piano lessons one day a week.

Following are some pictures of Carly playing in a tub of water and then Sydney's talent show. She and two of her friends, Kelly and Ollie, sang 'Complicated' by Avril L plus choreographed a routine. They were quite good!!

The Girl's Concert

Here are a few videos of the girls playing the piano. Sydney and 2 of her friends are singing an Avril Lavigne song 'Complicated' in the school talent show. She downloaded the music and is learning to play it. Of course, Carly tries to copy everything she does so she is playing her version.
Enjoy....

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Here is Carly's new haircut. It had gotten long and was hanging in her eyes so I trimmed it a little. Rosie thought it was still a little long and irritating her eyes so she took her and had it cut when Tony and I were in Vegas. It is a little shorter than we expected but I've gotten kinda use to it.






For Mother's Day we went to a restaurant called Breakfast in the Park. It is a very popular place because it is pet friendly. They even have doggy treats on the menu. Afterwards we went to a street fair in Sunset Beach. It was a very enjoyable day with the family!
