Fun Times

We went to First Friday here in town and the girls had fun at the "instrument petting zoo". Paige tried the Ukulele and Violin and Als tried the Violin. The SPCA was also there with kittens so the girls got to hold a kitten. It was a fun Friday evening out on the town!





On Sunday we went to Vacaville to watch our friend Addie perform in the Sleeping Beauty Ballet. It was fun to see Addie girl since she won't be dancing in the DDS recital this year. Great job Addie Girl!
One night when we got home from swimming there was a huge box on the porch. The girls were super excited and there was a birthday gift for Paige from the Stoddard Fam!! We are excited to see them all soon!!

Fun Day in Shingle Springs

The other day Geoff asked the girls what they wanted to do this summer. Geoff is going to take some long weekends over the summer since he does not have an "official summer break", so they made a list of things to do. Fishing was on the list, and one of Geoff's teachers lives on this amazing property with a lake on it! The girls were super excited to go, but once we got on the boat Paige wanted to turn around immediately. So instead of trying to change her mind on the boat, Geoff took a detour and put us back on shore! 
 She was a happy little camper, watching a show and watching Als and dad fish from dry land!
 I could have sat here all day. It was peaceful and beautiful as far as you could see....
Geoff and Allison, the little fisherwoman. She caught a few fish so she was happy!
Geoff's Grandma Ruth always took him fishing and he has many fond memories....She was watching over as they were tootling around the lake....


Geoff and Allie fished for about an hour while Paige and I watched from the shore. Geoff thought he would try fishing from the bank a few times and when he reeled in his line to get the "gunk" off, he had this little guy on the line!
 One happy Daddy-O
 Little Miss Sassy Pants....

 The girls wanted Geoff to try a few more times to see if he could catch another bass...

 There is another spot on the lake that I could have sat in all day.....
 It was a super hot day, so the girls and Geoff took a dip in the pool before heading home...

We had a wonderful time. They had goats, a pool, go-karts, a lake....we might just have to go back a time or two this summer :o)

June Already?!?!

We were crazy busy in May, so it flew by, and now it is already June. Where in the world did the time go? Here are a few pics of the end of school...start of summer!


My cousin Shannon and her family were in Cali for  our cousin Kyle's baseball tournament. They are from Oregon and were playing an hour and a half south of here so we headed down and watched his team play. The girls had fun visiting with cousin Morgs and can't wait to see her at the end of June!

I got to join Allie and the rest of the 1st grade class on the trip to the park with their 5th grade "Big Buddies". Allie has had quite a few Big Buddies this year, but got to end with E who she was in Jungle Book Kids with! After the park, they headed back to school to play and climb on huge jump house water slides. Fun times!  
Our little fashionista with her new flamingo dress and glasses. Love this little spitfire! 
The girls love swimming in Grandma and Paka's pool. We go all the time and are blessed to have a pool and grandparents two blocks away!
"Want to go catch lizards?" Geoff asked Will and the girls when we were out in the country at Fiona and Eric's new house. "Catch Lizards? Are you serious?" I asked. He was dead serious! Geoff is  a lizard catcher extordinare and even knows how to hypnotize them. What in the world? How have we been married for almost 13 years and I did not know this? Ha...learn something new every day I guess! The kids thought it was AWESOME!! Can't wait to go catch more again this summer!

The girls could have played outside all day. These are just a few pics from the end of the night. They also had a huge blow up water slide, that they went on over and over, and we drove all around the backroads on the Rhino cart! It was lots of fun and we look forward to more fun in the country this summer!



I also got to go to Paige's end of the year picnic in the park with her class. We had a lot of fun with friends and will miss our Great Day friends over the summer.


Allie girl is an awesome little student. She loves to read and write and is very driven. One night she started a story but didn't get to finish before bed. So she woke up bright and early the next morning ready to write. It was not a school assignment, just for fun! Oh Allie girl!
The 1st and 2nd grade classes go on a roller skating party for the end of the year and it was very, very hard for most of the 1st graders. Allie started with roller blades, but felt very unsure and unsteady so just ran around. Then she saw that they had training skates and walkers so tried it out again, and was successful. 
 Blurry pic, but she was super excited to "skate" on her own! Way to try hard Sis..you did it!!
Allison was back on stage performing at the Woodland Opera House for her end of the year performance for musical theater class. She was right in her element and loved seeing her old cast mates again. She is excited for summer camp at WOH to start. P was a trooper and loved watching from the balcony with Geoff.  Of course Grandma and Paka were there the see her perform! Can't wait to see her back on stage again at the end of summer camp!
Life is good and we can't wait for all that the summer has in store for the Hulbert Fam!! Stay tuned.....
