The Zoo Trip







So a while back Jerusha and her friend (Kyle) downstairs from us (who happens to be married to a guy named Spencer, who I happen to go to school with) decided that they needed some alone time to clean their homes, which I guess is hard to do with the girls around. Spencer and Kyle have two little girls also. So Spence and I took the kids to Micky D's and then to the zoo while the wives did some deep cleaning. They had a great time checking out the different animals and running up and down the little paved walkways around the different animals. The girls especially liked the bears and the cougars. Here are the pics.

We're going back to Cali!

Hey all, we're headed back to California tomorrow, and we'll be there for a week. So if you are in town stop on by. As much as I hate flying with the girls it's hard to not be excited about going back when the girls get all giddy about seeing their grandmas.
On another note, we took the girls to Hull Beach last Saturday and had a great time chasing seagulls, kicking the waves (karate kid style), and knocking down other people's sand castles (this was mostly done by Isabelle). Sadly I only snapped this one photo of the girls eating lunch, before the seagulls ransacked our stuff.

Back on the Blog

Hey it's been a while. This last semester of school was really a nasty one, so I haven't had a whole lot of time to post anything. Well, here we go again.
So far this summer we haven't really done too much due to the fact that we are #1 broke, and #2 I was still finishing up my second year of school until July 30th. We did get a chance to take the girls to the frog pond down in the common. Here are a few shots of thatThey have also been swimming quite a few times at our local pool, these are some shots of them at a birthday party for one of their friends.Jerusha and I had a nice break the other day when a lady in the ward offered to watch the girls for a day and let us hang out with our friends Dustin and Jamie. We went to the public gardens for a bit, played some tennis, and ended the day with a walk on a really cool beach we'd never been to.
