Natalie turned 6 today. She had a small party at Petroglyph in Willow Glen and invited 5 friends from school and Monique from our old neighborhood. The kids had fun painting their pieces. Natalie chose a dolphin jewelry holder and Tyler chose a soccer ball coin bank.

After the kids were done painting their pieces, we had pizza and cake!

The cake was an oreo and chocolate cake

The girls showed off their new sunglasses they got in their goodie bags

Tyler had an end of year celebration at his school on Friday. The two Pre-K classes had a special performance on the school yard. Each class sang a song and then each child was presented with a certificate of achievement. Afterwards, there was a BBQ.

Willy graduated from high school on Thursday. The graduation was in the evening on their footfball field. Afterward, we went to Krung Thai for a yummy dinner celebration! Natalie and Tyler don’t realize she will soon be off to college and we’ll only see her on major holidays and school breaks!

Last weekend we went to the Foster City Are & Wine Festival. The kids wanted to go to Big Uncle’s apartment so we decided to make a day trip out to Foster City.

We got some bbq chicken and garlic noodles

The kids wanted to ride a kiddie rollercoaster, but they wouldn’t let Tyler ride without an adult because he was too short. I was too cheap to buy a ticket to ride with him but a random lady in line offered to let Tyler ride with her and he agreed to ride with her too. Natalie was going to ride alone, but a little boy came and sat with her.

Last weekend, with 85+ degree weather, the pool officially opened. Natalie and Tyler had fun shooting big uncle with their water guns.

Every afternoon, I pick the kids from school. Most of the time, I pick Tyler up first. Yesterday, while walking to the car from his classroom he says to me “You pick me up first because I’m cute huh?”
