Muir Beach
Another fun day in the Bay! We were able to spend the day with the Sweet's. We had a great day to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather that we were having. The kids had a blast with each other which makes for a great day for the parents. The Sweet's have been like a second family to us. They spend everyday together through various activities and the kids are like siblings. This was a great weekend that I definitely needed! I got to read a whole book while I was down there. I am really looking foward to the summer where the beach will be the trip of choice!

Let's "Discover" a New Place
Bay Area Discovery Museum!
Just Beginning the Fun!
There were caves to explore...
trees to climb in and on...
and spider webs to become a part of!
The cutest lil pair in the fort
The Little Froggy Band!
A Sand Pit!
There was an art area where they had only scraps to work with. Elijah made a rocket with a red cup and a toilet roll. It was about the process and instead of the end result. I was impressed with both actually!
The awesome view right that we got to admire the whole day through!
Our cool six year old!
There were archeological digs!
and trucks to ride!
All in all, there was so much to do that we didn't have the time to see it all! But, we definitely want an encore!

Elijah's SIX!
It was a day filled with wet weather, emotion and craziness! It started off with cupcakes and a car accident. If you want details, you are going to have to ask me, but I fear writing it in the blog will sear it in my memory forever and I am not sure I want to last that long. The weather was crazy wet and I was not thrilled since we had planned a Barbecue for later on in the evening. But overall, it was a good day celebrating Shrek Style. My friend Amy made the amazing cake and I braved taking 8 of Elijah's friends to see Shrek. The movie was hilarious and the kids were amazing. I think Elijah enjoyed having friends to take with him and I was impressed by the calibur of his friends. They all listened well and were nice to each other. We had dinner with all the parents after at our house and enjoyed hamburgers which is Elijah's favorite! It is hard to believe that he is six now. It is going to take me a little while to get used to it.
I am really proud of Elijah and all he is becoming to be. He is righteous and smart. Just the other day he told a friend that he was going to serve a two year mission before he becomes a ninja as his full time occupation. I chuckled to hear such devotion, but most importantly that it is in his plans to be a missionary. I love him so much and look forward to all the days we have to see him become the man we know we will be proud of!! We love you, Elijah!!

I Love You, Mommy!!
Before you were conceived, I wanted you. Before you were born, I loved you. When you were born , I saw your face and I knew that I was in love. Before you were an hour old, I knew I would die for you; To this day I will. This is the miracle of life.
I just wanted to wish you a Happy Mother's Day! I read this and instantly thought of you. You have been devoted to your family the day you made it. You have done more for us than anyone I know. I love that you have set the bar so high for us girls when it comes to loving your children unconditionally. I aim for it everyday I parent and mother my own kids. I love you so much and am so thankful for all you sacrifice to ensure our happiness! You are an amazing grandmother and am thankful I can watch you through the eyes of my children. Thank you, Thank you, a million times Thank YOU!! Hope you have a wonderful day and even though we are not together I am thinking of you and thanking Heavenly Father for sending me to the most loving woman on this earth!! HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!Love you,
Kimberly
