Sorry I have been slacking :) but I have a good excuse

Well it's been a while, but I have a good reason... Summer started!! We have been quite busy since Madison started summer vacation. One of my favorite things that has been taking up our time is swim lessons. They love being in the water and are learning all pool safety and beginner swimming. It's so cute, to see them with their teacher. They love miss Chloe, she is so good with them and really pushes them to do their best. I think Madison will be full on lap swimming by the end of the summer, while Matthew will be doggy paddling through the pool. They have 7 classes left this summer.

We have already had a trip to Disneyland, which was so fun! Both kids absolutely loved it. They were not scared of any of the characters. Had their picture taken with Minnie, Mickey and Goofy. They had a blast, and every ride Matthew was not scared of, which was a plus for me because I do tend to get grouchy from all the whining hahaha. We had a blast together and will be making more trips to Disneyland this summer. Hopefully Kurt will be able to come with :)

We have also been to the Wild Animal Park. We are regular attendees of the Wild Animal Park. The kids love animals and are amazed by them every time we go. Plus they have an awesome water play park for the kiddies which is the highlight of every trip. We have a picnic in the grass and the kids play. It's so fun, it's just a fun way to spend warm summer days.

I want the kids to always remember great outings with their parents. I want them to build
wonderful fun memories that they can pass down to their children. I remember trips to Disneyland and the zoo when I was a kid and want my kids to always look back and remember those great times. So I'm starting young to engrave it in their brains hahahaha.

We have definitely started this summer off right and have a few more fun trips planned :) I will keep you updated in our adventures as they come!
