father.daughter dance

Kaz and Lola are off to her school's father-daughter dance.  Just have to show off the beautiful pair they are - love that look they give each other!

zoo day

We went down to the San Diego Zoo yesterday and had a blast.  The weather was absolutely beautiful, just enough sunshine to keep us warm, just enough of a breeze to cool us down from walking.

The girls absolute favorite animal of the day was the turtle - I think they enjoyed seeing an animal up close, as they would swim right up against the glass.  I loved that they would sun themselves on the logs and look like they were ready to be shot off like a rocket...











I loved seeing the lions, tigers, and bears (oh my!), the baby ducklings, meerkats, and koalas.

 like father,

 like daughter

the girls highlight of the day...the ice cream!

my new artwork

I recently switched things around in our living room and had a bare wall leftover.  I looked and looked for some artwork, but couldn't find anything that I liked within our budget.  So I decided to let the girls paint me some.  We picked out some colors that matched the valances and they did the rest.  All for under $10, too.  I couldn't be happier, and the girls are so proud to have something of theirs hanging in the living room.
