But before I let our last summer of complete freedom slip away the boys and I had adventure after adventure...at a glance.
The beach x2
Legoland x3
(oh and do I have a story about this last trip to Legoland and the ride home,
but it is a story for another day.)

Disneyland x2
Being that we are obsessed with Star Wars and Darth Vader at the moment, this was a particular highlight of our trip to Disneyland, as was the two rides on Star Tours. I had to use Mommy Mind Tricks to get both boys up on stage as the Jedi Master was choosing his young apprentices.
Evan using his Jedi Mind tricks.
Contemplative Padowan Ryan.

Evan's turn.
Sea World
WIld Animal Park
This Cheetah Kiburi was in the nursery and we went to visit him several times a month, watching him grow, and running in front of his cage so he could run along side the boys. Ryan in particular, loved the little guy and would want to play with him forever if Evan would let him. He was heartbroken when Kiburi was no longer in the exhibit. This day we happened to be leaving when Kiburi was coming out as his new role as ambassador! Ryan was so happy to see his old friend, and I was really glad our timing was just right to see him.
Soccer started
Birthday party
Ryan requested a Moose Ear Hat, and a lightsaber.
And that was just the last three weeks.
And today we started kindergarten.
But first we had the opening our "cones". (For the second day of school they
would like me to make Harry Potter cones.)
would like me to make Harry Potter cones.)
Then we refused to pose for pictures.
We met our new teacher
She showed us where our backpacks go
...and we made ourselves comfortable.
...found some things of interest
"take a picture of me with the butterfly mommy!"
...and then we got down to business.
Culminating in a celebration after school with some ice cream and Legos.
Thoughts on the whole school thing to follow. Both mine and the boys.
