Gilroy gardens

On Wednesday I took the kids to Gilroy Gardens!! I took them by myself and had a wonderful time. They all listened and got along and had fun. We played in the water area for about 2 hours and then went on rides for about 3 hours. It was a fun but busy day! When daddy goes out of town we need to do something fun.

San Francisco 2015

This sunday and Monday Bryan and I headed to San Francisco. We dropped the kids off at my parents house and headed out. We were on our way to meet Bryan's family for lunch in San Francisco.

We had a wonderful lunch at Fishermans Grotto Bryan and I shared a carb sandwich and sole stuffed with crab with a lobster sauce, both were great and I couldn't pick a favorite.

After lunch we went up to Ghirardelli square for some ice cream. Nancy and Susan took a peddle taxi and the rest of us walked. We then went over and walked pier 39

It was a fun day. After dinner we went and hung out on the deck of the pool and visited it was a great day!! Monday morning Don, Nancy, and Alisha headed to the hospital. Nancy was having cancer removed from her good kidney ( the reason for going to San Francisco) Bryan and I got to sleep in and relax and then headed to the hospital after lunch. The surgery went great.. The dr was able to remove the mass and save 95% of her kidney. This was amazing as the dr from fresno said he would remove the whole kidney. God answers prayers and Nancy is doing great recovering. 

Thanks to my mom, grandma, and Jon for taking care of my kids so we could be with family. You guys are great!!

Summer update

I really do want to blog more often. It is so easy to do while I am on my phone. So I hope that with Jayme getting a little bigger I will be able to a little more.. I know I've missed a lot. Jayme has cut her first teeth, she sleeps through the nigh( most of the time), she eats baby food, and rolls everywhere! She isn't crawling yet but who would when everyone brings you everything. I love her so much and can not imagine my life without her.. I have enjoyed being home this summer with all my kids, though stressful at times I love watching and pouring into them. We have had wonderful conversations and worked of behavior. Here is a summary of summer activities we have done. My mom and I took my kids to gilroy garden

We poured cement in our back yard

The girls had their dance recital 

I celebrated my sister in law Alisha birthday on the town

Bryan  and I went to a U2 concert with Jon and Becca it was so much fun and my first time away from Jayme

At the beginning of June we got to be a part of John and Becca's wedding. We were so honored to watch them marry and be a part of it. They have been a wonderful example of a Christian relationship for our children to watch

Me and the kids spent 5 days down in San Diego with my sister. We hung out mostly just talking and letting the kids play. We did make it to the beach one day.

We came home and Bryan, Jon, and Wayne built the kids play ground

The whole family went to San Diego for the 4th of July and got to tour Rustys ship!! It was so much fun

The most recent activity was going camping at Santa Cruz. We went to the board walk and hiking and just hung out! It was a much needed relaxing trip.

It's been a great summer so far and I still have 4 more weeks off!!
