Busy Weekend

This past weekend we were super busy. The girls had gymnastics as usual on Saturday morning and then we headed to Elk Grove to Adam's Dad's house to celebrate Adam's sisters 40th birthday and her son (our nephew and Hannah & Samantha's cousin) 8th birthday. We had a ton of fun playing in the pool and Adam's sister had just picked up a brand new puppy, an 8 week old white German Shepard....so cute! We got a half way decent shot of all 5 cousins, which is VERY rare to have them all together. Its sad but they just don't get together enough and they all just love each other so much.



On Sunday Adam had a Masonic event in SF and my brother was visiting from Alaska so the girls and I headed down to Marin to visit him. We first made a brief stop to visit Nali which is always fun for the girls. Then with my family we went to Chronkite Beach. It was super hot in Marin but of course out at the beach it was pretty chilly as you can see from how we are bundled up. Hannah and I enjoyed looking for sea glass and running in and out of the waves. Samantha was cool off the waves so she sat and played in the sand with my mom. Here is a picture of Samantha helping bury Hannah's legs.



At one point I was feeding Samantha some yogurt and my brother was down in the waves playing with Hannah. Well a massive wave came in and he yells to Hannah "Run! Run!", and then goes running off...do you think he bothered to pick Hannah up and help her run away from the wave...nooooo! I was yelling at him and poor Hannah had a look of horror on her face as the wave came in and she fell in the water a little more than she wanted to. Seriously, don't know what is wrong with that boy sometime...that was the end of him "supervising" Hannah by the ocean.

Towards the end of our time at the beach Hannah and Samantha snuggled in between my brother and Dad and enjoyed just looking out at the ocean.



Most of last week and this week city workers have been resurfacing our street and this has been GREAT entertainment for the girls...especially Samantha who just LOVES trucks. I came home one night and Adam had little chairs set up in the door way and the girls were sitting there watching the worker trucks go by. It was so much fun for them they ended up eating dinner there too.

Those are such sweet pictures. Hannah and Samantha really get along well, don't they?
