Pent up energy
Due to the extreme heat, the kids always have a lot of pent up energy. The neighborhood kids have discovered a fun cool place to get their wiggles out….MY HOUSE! I don’t mind a bit. In fact, I love that I have a room for my kids to get crazy in and I don’t have to worry about them breaking something.
I love this room! Mostly because it makes me feel young again. I sometimes feel like I might be able to do flips down these mats like I used to when I was young. But since I’m too old for that…I find so much fulfillment teaching it to others. Teaching tumbling makes me so happy!

Back together again…
Rich’s parents came home from their mission on Friday afternoon, and by Monday THE WHOLE FAMILY…EVERYONE….met up in California. It’s really rare when every member of their family (all 9 kids, spouses and children) can get together. Because one brother is in the Navy, and a handful are still in college etc. We had such a good time. It’s been fun being one of the oldest in this family, to watch the younger siblings get married and start families of their own.
We stayed at the Newport Marriott Villas…it’s gorgeous there! Our villa overlooked the Ocean. It was perfect!
Searching for sand crabs
Bennett’s like his momma…. he was hoping for warm tropical water. That’s not what we got!
Huntington Shops
The ANGRY FACE. He makes this face all the time.
Walking the pier and watching the surfers
These two…such cute cousins. I have a feeling in a couple of months when Bennett has teeth this won’t be so fun anymore.
Love this picture of Mason. Captures his love of the ocean!
Catching crabs
Rich got soooooo fried on day one, so he spent the rest of the week hiding from the sun
Headed into the Long Beach Aquarium
Seal torpedo about to make contact
BOOOOM!
Wow this post is getting too long. I will have to finish up another time.

We’re sure trying!
For the past couple of years we’ve been trying hard to eat healthier and eliminate processed food out of our diet. But when I was pregnant and sick, we didn’t try very hard. We’ve been back at it (not 100% by any means…but giving it some good effort). Both Rich and I are only pounds away from our goal weight. Some days I want to throw in the towel when my alarm sounds at 5 am for my daily workout, or my stomach is growling, or that brownie is just looking TOO GOOD! (Which lets be honest…I usually give into the brownie. UGH!). But when I’m not eating brownies I’ve really enjoyed eating fresh whole foods and doing a lot of juicing. This was Bennett trying to devour the produce before I could juice it.
