When I'm Out

Whenever Daddy takes the girls, I get some interesting pictures sent to my phone. This one was titled, "Don't tell Mama, I'm eating ice cream."

We've been big Groupon fans lately, especially since most of the Groupons are locally owned places. We took a chance on Tower Dogs and used our Groupon today for dinner. Their menu is simple, but creative. There are about 10 dogs to choose from, including a vegan chili dog . . . hmmm. Mia got a kid's dog (skinned with ketchup), I got the Californian (with avocado, grilled onions, bacon, and cheddar cheese), Troy got the Pastrami Dog (ewww . . . with pastrami, mozzerella, horseradish, sauerkraut, and pickles), and Ashlee got the Chili Dog (with chili and cheese). I loved mine and so did everyone else, so we'll probably go again. Fun place and always fun to try something new.

Day 2-The Bears

Mia and Ashlee dressed up their bears to go to Pismo. They even strapped them into the back seat!

Day 1-Storytime

Every (almost every) Thursday, Mia and I go to storytime at Petunia's Place. Teacher "Cilla" (Priscilla) is so good with the kids. Each time, she introduces herself and then goes around the room asking each kid's name. Mia used to just suck her thumb and not answer, but in the last few months, she has gotten much more confident and now says her name clearly and boldly! Today, Mia brought her two baby dolls. She told me their names were Chloe and Kelly. She didn't suck her thumb during the entire storytime! She's getting to be such a "big" girl.

Project 365

We'll see how long I last, but I thought I'd give it a try. One picture a day. Yes, I'm starting in the middle of the year, in the middle of the week, but at least I'm starting. I'm hoping to document and share some of our special family moments.
