Our present life

We are currently living in Manteca, California away from the cold winters of Chicago. We moved to California almost 4 years ago and started this blog in an attempt to keep in touch with our family and friends in Chicago or elsewhere. We miss everyone from the midwest but we love those who have become part of our life in California. Kevin is a teacher at Ripon Christian High. He also coaches girls volleyball and soccer and stays busy playing the sports he loves as well. Janey is a nurse 2 days a week and a mom the rest. She works at DMC on the pediatrics floor. Mason (5) and Talen (2) are growing daily and loving life! Enjoy our blog and follow us if you like!

our life lately...

We've been staying busy here with school, work, and of course a little play! Here's a few shots of my little artists.  Notice Talen is very good at painting one area of the page over and over until he's got it really good:)  Yep, that is what every color mixed together looks like! 

 I was actually very impressed that they were able to paint side by side without coloring on the other one's paper, or painting on each other!  Granted, it only lasted a short while, but still a success in my book;)

 
Last week we made a trip to Dutch Hollow pumpkin farm with a few other friends. It was about 100 degrees that day, but the kids didn't care.  Talen was totally enthralled by the horse poop. He kept asking farmer John questions about it. We met a not so friendly turkey who bites, and picked out a few pumpkins. So now, it officially feels like fall in our house.
