Childrens Museum

I have been wanting to take the boys to this museum for awhile now, and since I have been working so much during the days I figured today was the perfect day to get them out of the house. I called my mom to make sure she could come too because there is no way I was attempting this place alone--that was a good call lol!!! Both boys absolutely LOVED it there and we will for sure be going back!!! It was so hands on for both Trey & Boston & I LOVE all the imaginative play that it stimulates for their little brains.

climbing up this weird tree house

a bath tub was in the tree house lol

Sand over weird neon glowing lights

you shoved balls in these weird tubes and they suctioned them thru the tubes and spit them back out

noodle maze

Pretend grocery store play

working at a ice cream store

There was a room full of balls--both boys FAVORITE of course!

4th of July!

Well unfortunately we were here in AZ for the 4th this year--I LOVE the 4th in San Diego it's so much more fun with the beach, the water, the cook outs, the cooler weather, and a million other reasons, but we made the most of it and the lovely monsoon actually made for amazing weather for watching the fireworks. I actually did not get very festive with the food/desserts this year because I booked a last minute baby shower this week that is in 2 weeks and it's quite elaborate so all my crafting and planning has gone toward that! We had The Stillman's over to BBQ and swim and then went to the park down the street which actually has a HUGE turnout for fireworks. The kids had so much fun literally swimming the whole afternoon away, and my Mom joined us for fireworks which is always nice! So it was a pretty nice day and as long as the kids have sweet memories and our little family is starting to form traditions I can't ask for much more...
