I have less than a month till school again. Luckily, the first week of school is staff development/planning so hopefully it won't be that crazy. I'm proud to say that I've done quite a few things on my summer bucket list. If I had to rate my summer, I'll say it was pretty successful.
During the school year, I don't have time to check out new parks with the kids. It seems like all these cool new parks opened up right when I went back to work. We already visited Magical Playground in Palo Alto. This Friday, we went to Seven Seas Park in Sunnyvale. This place was beautiful... and got quite packed around lunch time. It seriously had everything there, including a water area (what drought?).
Not as good as beach sand, but good enough
Fun water feature in the midst of our drought
My cheap solution to staying dry
Homeboy was soaking wet
Awesome pirate ship structure

Future Mission Peaker?
Copying whatever big bro does
Spidey
Ms. Snack Queen
Following big bro
Although they do fight like normal siblings, these kiddos do a great job of protecting one another when they're out and about. I've seen kids try to bully Char since she's petite. They're in shock when she fights back AND when her big bro comes to her protection. I hope big bro protects her forever.
Kids chose to go to ChikFilA after the park
The weekend means iPad in the morning (if they're good). Char knows the drill and has gotten quite comfortable in my bed.
Frozen in bed
We went to visit a friend up in the Peninsula and the kids wanted to play at this park a bit before heading back home.

I got the kids' shoe sizes measured at Stride Rite and it looks like they're both growing. I finally bust out their new Toms and they did a very nice OOTD Sunday pose for me.

Checked out PA Junior Zoo & Museum
