Who enjoyed after school snack samples at Costco today?

Abigail did!!

A little chocolate milk...(notice the shirt stains)
A few potato chips...(hard to see grease stains on the shirt)
A cup of pineapple bites...(yellow pineapple juice shirt stains)

and of course...

A full cup of spaghetti noodles and sauce...(why, oh why, Costco?!)

Apples, Pears and Pumpkins

A beautiful and warm sunny day spent apple and pear picking in Julian!

Can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday than as a whole family...

Our final loot...What to do with all of it!?

Afterwards, we stopped for lunch and then made a quick pit stop at a pumpkin patch on the way home...

San Diego Summer Adventure - Balboa Park

While Joe was still working in Bremerton, the girls and I began to explore our new city. We were looking for fun and low-budget activities.

Balboa Park - Spreckels Organ Pavilion: A perfect spot for four energetic, wildly
animated girls to run off their energy by
singing and dancing...

No one was around - as the concerts don't start until later in the afternoon - so the girls put on a show for their mommy!

Striking a pose...

We're baaack!

Lot's of catching up to do since our move...but in the meantime, here are the 'hot off the press' pictures we took this morning.
