Field Trip!!

Thys and his preschool had a fun day on their field trip. They went to Pat and Oscar's Restaurant. As you can see they put on their protective gear and made PIZZAS. All month they have gone to different places in the community but I think this was one of the best because the end result was yummy pizza to eat.
They also got to tour the kitchen and see all the fun things that they do back there.

They made three yummy Pizzas.
Notice the hairnets--they are covering Thys' head and face!

Its that time of year

That smell is in the air!

As we were admiring some baby chicks, some cool looking eggs, a peacock and picking yummy oranges off some orange trees on Friday the sweetest aroma filled the air. It was coming from the orange blossoms! Oh, what bliss! All week-end long that has been the smell floating around this little town. It is getting stronger and stronger and I am loving it. If there were a way to put it in a bottle and sent it North I would do it. But I know of only one way for you to smell this sweet sent and that is coming here and breathing it in yourself. So... consider that your invitation. It is something everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.
Orange Blossom--its a good thing!

Sew Happy!

Well now that I am the YW Camp Director all I can think about it the Fundraiser. So to help the girls earn money we are having a dinner and silent auction again. Our ward has been very supportive in years past. I am planning on donating some items to the cause. Here is just a few of the things that I have started to sew for it. It just makes me sew happy!

Now that Madison is ten yrs old. She is showing much more interest in the things that I am doing. She really wanted to sew something on her own. She finished an embroidery project a few months ago so we finally found some cute fabric to match it and she transformed it into a pillow. She takes it with her everywhere.

Here Kitty, Kitty!

We were able to visit a friend last week whose cat had 7 kittens. They were only 4 days old when the children got to see and hold them. Kendell was very afraid and would not touch them at first.












But after I held the kitten she wasn't so scared and gave the kitten a kiss.Thys needed to warm up to the kittens too. But it didn't take long for him to want to hold them. Sydney loved them from the start along with the other animals that were there to see. Madison was in Kitty Heaven. She would love to have a little baby kitty or puppy to take home but daddy is allergic.
They had so much fun. Thanks H.A. for letting us come and see your animal. You can count on us coming back very soon.

Celebrate Good Times!

Yesterday, we had a fun day. It seemed like we were singing Happy Birthday to Kendell all day long. She would sing along with us too. We went to Old Town Temecula and shopped for at a few stores. What a fun little place to go and spend time at on a sunny afternoon. Our main purpose for the trip was to visit "Professor Pennypickle's Children's Museum". The children loved it! And it is very affordable--$4.50 per person.



Just one of the many fun things to do at the Museum!
At the end of the day we sang Happy Birthday one last time to Kendell with some cupcakes and candles to blow out. It was yummy stuff! Wish you all were here to celebrate with us.
