Chickens and our first egg

I will start the post with the sad part of the story.  On June 11th we were working in the front yard and our dog, biscuit, ran in front of a car and got hit.  It was a horrible day.  Now you are wondering why I started with that?! Well the reason we did not have chickens was because of Biscuit.  We were afraid she would eat them.  So to help the kids get over Biscuit we went and got 10 chickens... what is better than one pet well 10 of course!  

The kids named every one... Z, Zig Zag Goon, Fluffy, Flutterfly, Scooby Doo, Big Red,Mr. Petty Bones, Lacey, Brownie and Skinny!  do I know which is which... No, I had to ask Reagan just so I could post the names!  Do the kids know which is which... they think they do but they all switch them up all the time.

The next day we even got out first 4 eggs!  We were really excited and these pets don't pee on our carpet.  We still miss Biscuit but it really helped the kids not be so sad.


Cars 2

Tempe Market place had the cars from cars 2 so we headed over to see them.  The kids didn't really care much because it was soooo hot so we just played in the water .

Last day always so sad


And of course we have to walk on the beach one last time before taking off!






BEACH BEACH BEACH

We spent another fun day at the beach.  the kids just can't get enough!  Even though it was cold and they didn't get wet much the found lots to do.





Lego Land!

On wednesday we headed to Lego Land with the Campbells.  The kids really enjoyed our time there!








 The kids were not ready to go home but the park was closing.


Relaxing on the beach!

Day 2 was just relaxing on the beach.  it was really cold this year so I wrapped up in a blanket and enjoyed some sleep and a good book!

 The boys did a lot of digging!
 The adults did a lot of sitting!




I went to go rinse off Emma and came back to a sleeping Reagan.  It was a good day at the beech!

anual camping in SanDiego!!!

Well as soon as school was out we headed to San Diego to camp with friends!  Day one just includes LOTS of driving.  It took extra long this year to get there due to small bladdered children!  But we made it and set up camp and had some yummy dinner!

 Emma was so excited to see Stella!
We took a short walk on the beach and off to bed to get ready for the fun week ahead!
