Well, we've all been enjoying our summer break. Dylan's been out of school since early June and Luke's last day of preschool was at the end of June. I was able to take off work for most of the month of July and have been spending lots of time with my little guys. It's been a lot of fun, but I'm also sort of looking forward to a return to our routine (aka having them in school!!). We took several day trips early on in the month, and just returned from a great week in southern California. In our whirlwind tour (note that we were brave/cheap and drove down) we spent time in Anaheim with a visit to Disneyland/California Adventure and then headed north to Pasadena for a fabulous family wedding! The boys had a great time doing Disney - according to them highlights included the Star Tours ride (they're big Star Wars fans) and meeting Buzz Lightyear, Goofy & Pluto. We plan to do it again in a couple of years, because I think Luke is still too young to even really remember this tip. We then stayed at a super nice hotel for the wedding and spent lots of time by the pool. I am trying to adjust to life back at home, but really missing the pool and leisurely lifestyle we enjoyed, if only for a couple of days!! Right now the boys are taking swim lessons and Dylan is already doing the crawl stoke! I'm struggling with the reality that party ends officially for me on Tuesday with my return to work! :-( Oh well, it was fun while it lasted and we have tons of great memories from our summer days together. Luke will be attending Woodland Montessori School with Dylan (although they'll be in separate classrooms) at the end of August. Lots ahead to look forward to... stay tuned!!
