Fall
Made a little stop at our neighborhood pumpkin patch. It was sunny and warm, included a wheel barrow ride for Matteo and climbing on hay bales.

5th grade
Today was the first day of Jackson's last year of elementary school. He had mixed emotions about going back, we had such a fun filled summer doing everything on our list he just wasn't sure about getting back into the school routine. But once he was in the building, seeing his friends, teachers and staff he quickly turned happy and excited.
He called me on his way home (he rode his bike), but I missed it. He left me a voice message and his voice was so spirit filled. He told me he had a GREAT day.
I love this boy and the young man he is becoming. I can't wait to see what this year has in store!

National ice cream day
Today we celebrated the national holiday, ice cream day. What, you have not heard of it? Well, sorry you missed it, you have my permission to go have a scoop right now.
Mattys first ever cone was a scoop of mint chocolate chip, that's my boy, with his papa David taste buds shining through.

First swim
Went to grandma's today and took the boys swimming. Matteo's first time, he wasn't too sure about things at first but then he realized the fun and really got a kick out of going between Jackson and I. What a fun day for a first!!
Hydrotherapy
Memories of warm summer nights when I was young, when we cooled the house with open windows and box fans, hearing my mom outside doing hydrotherapy with the plants and garden. I'm reliving my youth the next couple of days since my heat pump is non-functional. Does feel good to be outside and becoming one with my garden.
Matteo is getting in on it too
The boys went to the reservation with their dad and came back with quite the supply. Just a little excited.
Stewie
- On April 3, 2010 we picked up Stewie to foster for Golden Bond Rescue. He came to the rescue with his 7 (YES 7) brothers. He is 5 months old. He needs to get fixed and then he will be ready for adoption. 24 hours into having Stewie in our home, big (foster) sister Stella isn't too sure about this little guy. I think she is worried that we are going to forget about her and focus on him. She has to be first at everything, and doesn't let him get in edgewise. Stewie loves Jackson!! The fell fast asleep together on our bed the first night. I'm anxious to see where he is going to sleep from now on and if Stella will stay with Jackson on his bed. Having a young one in the house is fun!!
Digital Scrapbooking
- Here are some pages I have recently created. Some are quickpages (I just drop in a picture), some are templates I purchased and others are templates I created. Quick, easy, I'm still getting the hang of it, but it's a fun alternative to traditional scraping.
Turkey Bowl 2009
- Great time at Turkey Bowl 2009 this year! Lots of rain, lots of laughs, and lots of memories.
Disney 2009
- In May, 2009 we surprised Jackson with a trip to Disneyland - not only the happiest place on Earth, but one of our very favorite.
Baseball 2009
- A recap of Jackson's games with the green dragons.
