Gianna's last day of preschool

We have had a great time during our first session of Mommy and Me preschool. I wanted to share some photos from the last day to give you an idea of what a typical day at preschool is like.

Walk to class, don't forget your lunchbox!

Camp Fire Reunion

Thanks to the magic of Facebook etc. I have gotten back in touch with old friends. I was thrilled to get together with Kate and Megan (who moved to Oklahoma after 6th grade) and Megan's mom, Carol and son Will--and also to have them meet my family too.

Gianna and Will Loved playing together.

Grandpa and Grandma Visit

At the end of May Justin's parents came to visit. Here is a sweet photo of them reading with the kids.

Happy Birthday Madison!

We have had quite the month of Birthdays. Gianna loves it. Here is a picture of her friend Madison blowing out her candles.

Memorial Day BBQ Fun!

We went to Grammy's house for a Memorial day BBQ and had a great time hanging out with family (even Justin's parents and cousin and kids met us there). Here are the photos from the day:

Excited to be holding 5-day-old Mackenzie Anne. She's so pretty. I could have held her all day!

Waiting for a Blessing

Here Gianna is waiting for her blessing during Memorial Day Mass. This is always her favorite part of mass.

Happy Boy

Connor was all smiles after the wind fest.

San Ramon Wind Festival

We went to the San Ramon Wind Festival over memorial day weekend. It was colder than we expected it to be, but everyone had so much fun.
Gianna got her face painted for the first time:

And they had a ton of kid's crafts her favorites were making a kite, and painting a ribbon to wave in the wind. And the finished product:

Line 'em up!

One of Gianna's favorite things to do lately.

House needs batteries!

Jess called me at work to tell me that the power was out in our house. No real big deal, it was a planned outage because PG and E had to do some work. So we knew about it. When Jess called me to tell me I could hear G in the background saying "Needs batteries! House needs batteries!" That made my day.
