Kindergarten

On Monday it was Emily's BIG day, she started kindergarten! I was so nervous for her, she was not looking forward to going. I had been making it a HUGE deal and trying to hype it up. Emily started getting excited as we were getting her snack and back pack ready. James was able to go into work late so he could be there to see his baby girl start school. Emily was a trooper we walked her to class and she went in with no problem. We stayed for a little bit and watched her. She was so cute! Emily waved and we left. I was so proud of her. I was so sad, that my baby is in school, I did cry when I left her. I picked her up she said that she liked it and that her teacher was nice. Which made me so happy! Also my little shy girl told me that she raised her hand in class and told the teacher about our camping trip. She told her that she rode her bike while we were camping and that she fell off her bike. I was so surprised that she talked to the teacher on the 1st day. I guess she was ready for school.

A Little Bit of Crazy…A Whole Lot of Love

On Tuesday it was James' birthday so I made him cheese enchiladas, his favorite! His mom and niece were also coming over. They we planning on making refried beans and mexican macaroni. I had everything out for them ready to go. They are cooking and my mother in law grabs the tomato sauce to open. (not knowing that I already opened it for her) she gets it and proceeds to shake it, tomato sauce is everywhere. While she is cleaning up, I turn and look at Brandon who is sitting at the table eating his hot dog. Nope, he isn't eating instead he had a travel shampoo bottle, which he some how opened and had it all over him and his hot dog. ( He already had a bath and had his pj's on) James gets Brandon and takes him upstairs and has to give him another bath. Now I am cleaning up all the shampoo. OK so you thought that was all! Now my niece goes to fill her cup with ice from the ice maker. Funny but ice didn't come out soda started pouring out. I open the freezer and sitting in the ice maker was a can soda. The can had a large whole down the side. James said he put the soda in the ice so it would get cold faster. After that mess was cleaned up I definitely thought You Got To Be Kidding!

Camping in the Sierra's

This weekend we went to our favorite place Sliver Lake! We were so excited because we were going with the Valdivia's ! We love taking trips together. The girls have so much fun together. They are the cutest BFF's! The girls did tons of fishing with their dad's super cute! Brandon and Dylan had a great time, hopefully they are BFF's in the making.




We went on bike rides around the campground, took walks to the store and sat by the fire, it was so relaxing. The most exciting thing for the guys was when they came face to face with a bear who was trying to get into the trash dumpster! James said that was the 1st bear he has ever seen in his 32 yrs camping there. How crazy, so glad that I didn't see it!
















We had a great surprise while we were camping. I had just walked into the RV when I heard Julie say "oh my gosh, Melissa". When I looked out of the window I saw the Fleming Family. We had know idea that they were up there too. We enjoyed having them hang out by the fire and have some tasty s'mores. The kids had so much fun together and Macy was so cute!



Another great trip, the kids were awesome and we all had a great time! We can't wait to go again, next year we are going for a whole week!

Dodger Game!

On July 1st it was Lorraine's birthday, so we bought tickets to the dodger game. She loves the Dodgers!! Lorraine, James, Emily and I went to the dodger game and we had great seats. We had a wonderful time, great weather, lots of snacks and best of all the Dodger's won!! The highlight of the game was that Emily was on the Jumbotron. How cute is that, my baby girl was on TV. She was dancing until she saw herself and froze! I love my baby girl!








Abuelita bought Brandon a Dodger shirt and he posed with Emily's Finger!
Next time we go Brandon will have to come!!









This picture is for Julie!!!

Emily's birthday party!

We had Emily's birthday party at the Chino Youth Museum. The kids had a blast! I was so happy, I was worried that the kids were to old for this place. They were not, everyone had such a great time. Emily was so happy playing with her friend especially her BFF Gracie!! They love each other so much. I am glad that Emily had a wonderful celebration for her 5Th birthday!!





Everyone love Grandma!!!
