Skylar taking sewing lessons

Skylar has started taking sewing lessons from a friend of ours Mrs. Tammy. She loves it! I am so excited about her learning this very useful trade. She is saving her money to buy a sewing machine. I am so proud of her! She has been sewing pillow cases and wash cloth hangers and has given them all out to others. She is now working on making herself a dress from a pattern that Mrs. Tammy has. It is so important to us that our kids learn things that they can really use throughout their entire life. I hope she continues to learn and grow in this craft, it will be helpful to me around the house since I don't even know how to sew a button!!!

Bueno/Buckley/Murray Beach trip 2010

We had such a great time at the beach with all the cousins! The kids had an exciting week with fun at the beach, pool, water slides, boat and on the golf cart. I still think Jayse's favorite time is playing Wii! We had great weather and were able to go an the boat several days. My favorite was docking at the end of the island and enjoying the beach all to ourselves. The kids got to go tubing and found lots of interesting sea creatures. We were joined by Denni's family on Wednesday and while we had a packed house it was truly an unforgettable experience! Matt rented a golf cart which was so much fun and made going to the beach a much more enjoyable experience. As usual the food was outstanding each night and we especially liked "Taco Tuesday" and the night Abuela made crab legs and fettuchine. Yummy!! We were thankful that Prisim got to spend some time with us and we will all miss her dearly!! Thanks for the memories!
