17

17 could be my new favorite number.
We had a playdate.
With 17 of the sweetest faces.
Ever.















See?
I told you.

beach

Our hotel had such easy access to the beach that we went for a bit on Saturday.
I have never been a true "beach" person...but I do love to take pictures there!

(jellyfish washed up...ewwww!)

Ken packed the kites, so we gave that a try while we were there.

After the beach, we went right to the pool...

and ended the afternoon in the bath.
(well, half of us anyway)

Comic Con

We braved the crowd of crazies at Comic Con over the weekend.

Jack liked the LEGO area, obviously.
Molly even did her own building.

The kids played at the Clash of the Titans training area...
I mean, look at the grip she has on that guy!
Jack met some ugly dolls...
And some other interesting characters.
Of course, anything Star Wars is a bonus. And LEGO Star Wars? That's icing on the cake.
I was thrilled...to see these guys. I seriously adore the Big Bang Theory.
I spent lots of time in line to see these guys. Did you also know that my favorite band,
the BareNaked Ladies sing the theme song to the show? Imagine how thrilled I was, when they came out to sing the song at the beginning of the panel discussion!
Yes, my inner geek was so, so happy!
Standing in line, gave me PLENTY opportunity to take lots of pictures as I did some serious people watching. I didn't want to post all the pictures I took of the freaks at Comic Con.
So, I chose just one. One gem that sums in all up.
BAZINGA!

Wordless Wednesday- corn

summer playdate

The best part of being in a playgroup with teacher mommies....is the summer!
We had a fun playdate, that started with some time with more dogs!

Then, we blew up these punching balloons.

They were a HUGE hit!

We painted with water....

and we also played with play-dough!

Our playdates are becoming busier and busier...

K9

This past Sunday, we went to the fair for our weekly Sunday Family Dinner.
The food IS fun there, but we really went to see Trevor and Argo at
the Police and K9 Exhibition Show.

Molly met some dogs before the show.


And enjoyed some corn, while relaxing on Nana.
(what a life, right?)


The cousins waited patiently.
I ADORE this picture. I only took one, and it was perfect!



Finally, it was time for Trevor and Argo!


We visited after the show...


And eventually got to spend some time with an awesome dog!




We love the fair...and it was awesome to be able to see our favorite officer and his K9 partner in action!
