First Day of 5th Grade

5th Graders Rule the School!   And this 5th grader is now in a mens size 8.5 shoe!

Hard to believe this is Quinn\’s last year of elementary school. 

He has lots of familiar faces in his class this year so we know it\’s going to be a great year for Quinn.

Hummingbirds

We love hummingbirds.  Don really loves hummingbirds.

There is a wild bird store near Quinn\’s TKD studio so I stopped in and bought a recommended hummingbird feeder along with lots of tips on how to attract these little creatures.

It takes (Don) a little bit of work but it is paying off and we are enjoying watching the hummingbirds at the feeders.  I need work on my hummingbird photography but it was fun trying to capture this guy. 

Day at the Beach

School starts this coming week so we needed to sneak in one last beach day.  We met a handful of friends down at Zuma Beach.

Quinn loves to spend most of his day in the water but he usually comes out chattering with blue lips.  So I got him this wetsuit to keep him warm and he loved it!

As you can see, it was a pretty hazy day….

But the sun came out eventually.  These two spent a good bit of time boogy-boarding.  The current was pretty strong and the lifeguards were walking up and down the beach keeping a close eye on everyone — especially these two.  They may have been whistled at a couple of times for going out too far.

Moms appreciate it when boys want to prove their strength.
