Dear Daddy,

Dear Daddy, we miss you and can't wait for you to come to Florida to be with us.  We keep asking mommy how long it will be until you come here.  We went to say good morning to the beach before we walked to the library to check out books.   The beach was too tempting and mommy kept saying don't get wet, but we did.  We can't wait to play in the water with you!!!
Auntie and Uncle Jay joined us when we went back to the beach to really play in our bathing suits.  
Daddy, I was lucky that Uncle Jay played in the water with me because mommy is a whimp.  Uncle Jay went running fast into the water just like you do.  This is the first thing I want to do with you on Friday morning!
Daddy, you know how much I love the sand.  I made a lot of sand castles today and some cake too.
Daddy, the water kept trying to get me.  I would run fast to get away and then say "na, na, na, boo, boo" to the ocean.  Once the ocean really got me wet and I had to take my favorite soccer ball shirt off.

Even Grandpa joined us on the beach this afternoon.  Dad, you wouldn't believe all the pictures that mommy, Auntie and Grandma were taking.  Well, actually I bet you can imagine.  It was a bit over the top but we were so glad to be in Florida.
Daddy, we had the perfect day with no clouds in the sky.  Look at the water, it is soo much fun to play in the sand.  
After the beach, while Isaiah napped we hit the pool.  We did EVERYTHING we possibly could today.


After dinner, Grandpa took us on a drive to this neighborhood where the peacocks roam wild.  This one was mating and showing his feathers to four girl peacocks.   Logan said, "He is trying to get the emails." (females)  Mommy was laughing so hard.   Then we met Grandma, Auntie and Uncle Jay for yummy ice cream.  
Daddy, we love you so much and will try not to have too much fun without you but there is so much to do and the weather looks incredible all week.  Hope these pictures make you super excited to come and play with us this weekend.  We miss you!!
Noah, Logan and Isaiah

What's to come?. . .Future phone calls

Seriously, I am still laughing. I handed Logan her pink play cell phone that had gone through the wash. So as I was putting the laundry away (it had been over a week and the pile was about to tumble.) in the boys room, Logan made a phone call.(on the pink cell) Logan: Hey Desirae, how are you doing? Me: Logan, Mrs. Crouch is what you need to call her. She isn't your friend, she is Ella's mommy. Logan: Mommy, I am just talking with Dez. I just let it go because I was so tickled. It gets better. This is what I hear with long pauses in between. (I really grabbed Noah's sketch pad and wrote it down word for word) "I've been doing that for weeks." "Oh, you HAVE? Oh, Wow . . good for you!" "Isaiah, not now, I'm having a phone call." Then Logan makes her way into the boys closet, (I am still putting clothes away). I tell her leave the door open and get out of the closet. Her response, "Mom, just like you when you talk on the phone." ...

Today was Logan's photo shoot for her four year picture. Noah (seven years old) had his picture take a couple of weeks ago but I never posted them. Would you believe these were taken downtown. . . . Upland?? Traci Falder, (my running partner) has abandoned running with me to pursue her dream of starting a photography business. (no hurt feelings) She is extremely talented and I encourage you to check out her photography blog at tracifalderphotography.blogspot.com. In between these two photo shoots, I took Isaiah to JCPenny's for his picture because my membership runs out at the end of this month. After trying to keep my active 18 month old on a red dot, in a tiny room, with a billion props to look at, (but me not letting him hold any), it was all I could do to not walk out and call Traci to redo his pics. Which I will in the next week, hopefully:) When I first saw Noah sitting like this, I immediately thought this is exactly how Gary would sit. Traci told Noah to sit on this ben...

Baseball Season has Arrived

Noah as "Lead Off" Batter, which has become Coach Spiegel's nick name for him. This weekend we had a game Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Noah's team is 2-2 and Noah is having a great time. He is batting well and improving out in the field at his new position of pitcher. Last year he played third base and really liked that. Noah is learning to think about where he should throw the ball to get someone out BEFORE the other team hits. He has fielded well and then made errors in where he has or has not thrown the ball. This will come for him as he keeps playing. I hope this doesn't sound critical, I think Noah is a fantastic athlete for his age (I hope that doesn't sound braggy) I just want to journal where he is ability wise so we can look back and see where he improves over time. Noah at first base. Justin Singer as first baseman, a friend of Noah's from church and King's . Noah, Bailey Spiegel, and Conner Raikes. The Three Musketeers. Snow cone ...
