Aug 2012: Gavin's 2nd Birthday!

We can't believe our little boy is 2 already!  He is such a bundle of energy, wanting to be everywhere all the time.  On the day of his actual birthday, we just laid low and bought a small cake to have that night.  Then the following Saturday, we had a small party at Child's Play in Temecula.  It's an awesome kids play place that holds private parties on the weekends.  We had the place all to ourselves and had so much fun!  I highly recommend this place to anyone with young kids that need to release some energy!  Justin's Mom arrived a few days before and joined us in the celebration too!  We were so glad she was able to join in the festivities!

 Love this little video of Gavin blowing out his candles.  Please don't pay attention to my horrible singing!  :P

Aug 2012: First Day of School

So I got lost in the "getting into the routine of school" and the blog fell behind...once again.  But before it turns to October, I'm taking some time to update it once again and hopefully keep it up!

On August 21, 2012, Owen and Savanna started school.  Owen started Kindergarten and Savanna started 3rd Grade!  I was excited to have them both at the same school finally!  We met Owen's teacher a few days before school started so he was already familiar with his class and his teacher.  He also found out two of his good friends were going to be in his class, so he was even more excited!  And I was a little relieved!  Savanna got joint teachers and she was happy with that!  She also found out beforehand that quite a few of her friends were going to be in her class so she was excited to see them all again.  Except her best friend isn't in her class so she was a little sad about that but they've had lots of playdates and sleepovers since then to make up for it.
