Me and baby girl. I tried to find something funny, but had no luck. Robs’ cousin took this shot this past weekend and emailed it to me today. Thanks Patrick!

We’re headed to San Fransisco in just over a month. My sister and brother in law along with myself and Rob are going kid-free over Labor day weekend to attend the wedding of a cousin of Robs. I have never been further west than Wisconsin (I know I’m lame), so you can imagine that I’m pretty excited to see some new sights.

Here’s the thing though, we have 5 days that we will be there. One of the days will be partially taken up by a wedding. We want to eat food that San Fransisco is known for and see sights that are worth seeing, and pack in what we can with the time that has been given to us without getting too packed. Have you been there before or know somebody who has been there before? Maybe you live there or nearby? Tell me in your opinion what you think we should do while we are there!

Tackle it Tuesday, on Monday

I don’t know how many of you have the plastic turtle to use as a sandbox, but for us it wasn’t cutting it. When Ryan plays in a sandbox it’s like a battlefield, and there is no way his numerous dump trucks, shovels, buckets and more are going to fit in the turtle. Not to mention the special occasion when we’d forget to put the lid on at night and it would rain. You know those things don’t drain right? Yeah, well, needless to say we had to ditch the turtle. Although as it turns out, Ryan still wanted to use his dump trucks, shovel, etc, so that left him digging a hole off to the side of our yard. Not too pretty. Rob took things into his hands and in photos I will show you how it turned out.

Time: 1.5 hrs

Material: $100.00

Ryan (and Olivia’s) reaction and the preservation of our backyard: Priceless

A day on the boat. Finally. We have had a horrible summer as far as weather goes, only a handful of beach/boat worthy weather.
