Indian Princesses & Boys Only Weekend (with moms!)

Ella had her first Indian Princess campout of the year and had an amazing time!  They camped right on the beach at Camp Pendleton!!!

Meanwhile, Everett and I spent some time with his friends!  He had lunch with his buddy, Colt, and then went for ice cream, playdate at a friend's and movie night at the school!  All boys all the time- he was in heaven!

Birthday Season

It's birthday season around here!  For Everett...

And ella...

And it was Gary's birthday!

But it was also the mom's night out fundraiser for school...

And our 11 year anniversary- we went to The Ranch, and it was SOOOOO delicious!

Soccer!

Everett started his first year of soccer (U5), and as we expected, he's doing awesome!  He always hustles and scores tons of goals!

This is when he won MVP!

Dance & Gymnastics

Ella started up dance again...she's doing ballet and jazz this year.  Her ballet class is essentially a private lesson with her and two of her friends!

She also started back up with gymnastics, and they moved her up to level 2 (even though she's not ready for it!) so that she could be in the same class as her friends!  Which was essential because I can't pick her up on Wednesdays so I need the carpool help...and she loves it!

Mommy Son Date Night!

While Ella and Gary were at their Indian Princess kick-off event, Everett and I went to Star Wars night at the Angel game- it was so fun!!!  All the characters were there, right in front of Everett, and they gave away Storm Trooper rally monkeys!  Everett got one of the practice balls AND the angel girls threw him a plush ball too.  It was great!

Still Like Summer...

Even after school started, we were able to squeeze in a few more summer-like playdates!

First Day of School

I'm so late!  The first day of school was August 29, 2016- so early, and summer went way to fast!  I was not prepared at all!  There were no tears by either kid!

Ella started first grade (her 3rd year at her elementary school)...

Everett started his first day of TK at elementary school!  Unfortunately, it isn't the same school as Ella :( since they took TK out of our school.
