Brandon and I have been extremely busy the last couple of weeks at work and have not being doing very well at keeping up the blog, so I just wanted to post a few quick pictures to let you know what we have been up to. Kyla won the Principal's Award at school along with only a few other students......4.0 baby!
Grandpa Mendenhall sent the kids some really funny stories he wrote for them, and it was the highlight of the their week. They worked on writing some comic strips to send back to him.
Casey reading his story from grandpa.
Kyla has been a sushi lover for the last couple of years, and it's her favorite treat for a special occasion. We usually go the mild route, but got very adventurous the other night with some raw eel, tuna, salmon, and some other interesting things. I made a point of telling Casey he didn't have to eat it all, but I wanted him to at least try a small bite of each type. Turns out, he was much braver than I, and ate everything on his plate!
We took another hike through the forest and along the coast at Point Lobos. We have really come to enjoy the beauty of that place. The kids found a natural seesaw.
Brandon and I found a cave. That's our last couple of weeks in a nutshell! We miss you all.
