Kelly likes swinging from the monkey bars. Now that she goes to work with Mommy she gets lots of practice.

Field Day

Kelly's school had field day at the gym. She got to play volleyball, basketball and soccer.

Mandi's 30th Birthday Party

Our good friends, the Seling's, hosted Mandi's 30th birthday party with a western theme. It was a great time of fellowship. What a blessing!

There were lots of party guests.

Opening presents was lots of fun!

What would a western theme be without some fiddle music?!!

A Day With the Dolphins

Tom's friend took us to see the dolphins at the Naval base where they work. We were able to pet them, feed them and watch them do some tricks. It was so much fun.

Fathom, one of the girls let us pet her. She even jumped up for each of us.

Mandi was the only one who pet the dolphin's tongue. Wow-what a lot of teeth!

Trainers had Coho jump onto the raft. Then we took turns petting her.

Violin Practice

Kelly has started taking violin lessons from Tom's teacher, Kara. She just recently moved up to a larger violin, a 1/8 size. She loves going to lessons with Daddy on Thursday evenings.

Orange Pickin'

Kelly and Mommy walked up the hill to check on the orange trees today. The temperatures have been freezing overnight and we were worried that the cold killed them. Luckily, they were alright. We decided to pick a few navels and try them. They were delicious!

Kelly picked a little more than the orange!
