Cooking Class at Sur La Table

Anna had so much fun doing a cooking class with her BFF the other day!  They made delicious french patisserie treats!

Anna's Dinner and a Movie party

Anna had a fun 10th birthday party.  We had a dinner party and then went to see the movie Cinderella. It was sweet to watch Anna and her friends.  They are such fun girls!

Party favors: bejeweled flip flops with nail polish!  After all "one shoe can change your life!"  *says Cinderella

Talented Girls

Anna and her friends danced and sang "Welcome to NY" by Taylor Swift.  The worked hard practicing and choreographing all by themselves.  They were adorable and quite the stars!  They can't wait for the T Swift concert in June!  

They were also super excited to be the group to hand out the thank you's to the teachers at the end!  

Pura Vida in Costa Rica

We had an amazing trip to Costa Rica with sweet friends this year.  It is amazing how we find all kinds of new things to do each time we visit.  The kids can't wait to go back and are hoping for a two week stay next time.  I wouldn't mind two weeks there either…beach, beautiful views, lovely house, food cooked for us, cleaning done and laundry done…that is my ultimate relaxation spot!

Surfing with Point Break Surf…SO.MUCH.FUN!

  We found all kinds of cool things in the tidal pools…lots of different kinds of fish!

Boogie boarding was a huge hit!  

As was "Adult Swim" when the adults took over the boogie boards and kids stayed on the sand!  

They were still having fun!  See…

Iguanas everywhere!

Awe inspiring sunsets every night followed by amazing stars and shooting stars as well!
