Topanga State Park

The boys went to Topanga State Park for their field trip to learn about the Tongva People who once inhabited the Los Angeles Basin and the Southern Channel Islands.  They were a hunter gatherer society.  The boys learned how they survived and had opportunities to recreate how they lived.  Jawsh had the opportunity to chaperone this field trip and he was very impressed by the field guide expert.  In all the years that I have lived in Los Angeles, I have never been to this state reserve.  When will I visit the park???

Picnic

For the past five years we have been attending the annual Rancho Co-op picnic hosted by the boys' preschool.  It was a fun afternoon with plenty of good food and friends.  The boys enjoyed spending their time with the W boys.  Even though they go to separate schools they still enjoy spending time together when we see each other.  Will we hear back next year???

Open House

Open House is one of my favorite events at school.  I love going into the boys' classrooms and seeing all their work in class.  Although we're at the same school, I rarely have time to go into their classroom so it's nice to see everything they are working on.  This year was special because I only had one classroom to visit since the boys were in the same class... next year will be different.  What will it be like then???

Baby Brady

Micah really wants to be a big brother... he loves being in charge of little people like my cousin's son, Brady.  The whole lunch, Micah liked sitting next to Brady and playing with him.  When will we see them again???

Sports Authority Commercial

Micah had a special opportunity with his baseball team to be cast in a Sports Authority commercial.  He was on first base for most of the shoot.  He said it was a long day and his favorite part was the snacks (and getting out of school early). Will this start his career???

CPK Chefs

The boys went on a special tour of CPK with their classmates.  They had the opportunity to make their own pizza and tour the kitchen.  They really enjoyed walking through the back of the kitchen and making their pizzas, but the part they enjoyed the most was eating!  They also had a chocolate brownie for dessert.  This was a great experience for the kids.  Will this be an inspiration for Micah to open a future restaurant???
