Stuff of the week

Olivia day 3 of VBS. She made this pretty little crown with ribbons flowing from the back - but had no idea why. For some reason she can remember what she had for snack, but can't recall the Bible story. She's all tense in the picture because she is trying to keep the crown on.

Those are the latest on-the-go bags in her hands. I have no idea what is in them (except the see through bag of course). They are currently in bed with her for nap.

Since we have been in San Diego, two of Mike's best buddies have been here on business. Tim actually got to stay the night with us, but I didn't get any pictures. Last night we drove up to Costa Mesa to have dinner with Erik.

Finally got the kids real tennis shoes. Everyone keeps wiping out in the dinky flip flops, so we are saving those for around the house and the beach and moving on to tennis shoes. I went to Children's Place...actually all the way down to the border to go to the outlet, but all the shoes have all those fat rubber soles. Seriously, Olivia falls standing still - she doesn't need any extra help. Thankfully there was a Converse outlet and they had a buy one get on 1/2 price. Now Olivia is wearing the same shoes her mother wore in high school - pink, low top Converse. That's right, I was always right on the edge of fashion (no comment as to which edge please).
