ZAP! Arcade!

I will apologize upfront for the poor quality pictures, I was using my phone in a dimly lit arcade, but you get the point ... we had fun!  Spent a few hours with the Hokanson Boys and Tammy playing "vintage" video games ... that is what we now call video games from mommy's childhood ... I guess that makes me vintage too!  Tammy and I rocked Ms. Pacman and Donkey Kong just in case you were wondering!!

First Day of Summer Break ... Valleyfair!!!

So ... based on tradition ... the girls and I spent their first official day of summer break at Valley Fair. We had a great day together and even got to try a sneak preview of the new water park and the cool slides.

Pizzeria Lola and 4th Graders!!!

Today was the girls' last day of 3rd grade ... look at them ... we officially have two FOURTH graders in our home.  We celebrated the last day of school with dinner at Pizzeria Lola and even got patio seats outside!  I can't believe summer break is officially here already!

We also made it to Sebastian Joe's for a little ice cream!

Swedish Pancakes ...

Mommy had to work tonight and daddy decided to make his special Swedish pancakes ... they were a hit once again!!

Bike/Walk to School Day

This is our "hood" biking to school today for Bike/Walk to School Day ...

Silly Girls ...

Well, we decided to have a sleep-over at our house tonight and invited Miss M and Miss T to join the girls.  The girls picked Clancy's for dinner and this is what it is like taking four 9 year olds out to dinner ... and these were the "normal" faces ...
