Quick get-away

Wes spent the first week of September in San Francisco for a work conference.  And since it was followed by a 3 day weekend (Labor Day), KK watched the kids so I could join Wes in California.  It was a GREAT trip.  Our friends Linsay and Jeremy moved their family to San Fran 2 months ago so we spent most of the weekend with them.  We walked around Sausalito, ate oysters overlooking the bay, spent an afternoon lounging in the sun at "Off the Grid" and as always, got plenty of sleep!!  It was a great trip!  Not many pics, but here is what I have.

The weather was perfect!!  (Notice Wes with no shirt - classic Wes!)  Sunny and warm during the day, cool in the evenings.  Lindsay and Jeremy have two kids close in age to ours (5,2) so we are thinking about doing DisneyLand with them in February or March.  We will see how our family trip to Joe's wedding goes before we start planning another one.

Stella loves building tall towers.

Trying on Reese's flower girl dress for Uncle Joe's wedding!

Reese calls herself a "good cooker" and begs to help all of us in the kitchen.

Snuggles with daddy.

Cool kids.

Drake potty trained in one day a few weeks ago.  (I always heard it was harder to potty train boys so I was dreading it.  Not an issue!!)   Here we are watching a movie while he works on something.

KK took Reese to the aquarium and they saw a mermaid!

And fed the birds.

Ice cream date.

Stella loves her piggie.

Stella and her favorite float.

I promised a video of Drake swimming and here it is.

Here's another looooooooooong video but I couldn't crop it.  Reese reading Frozen.
