SEPTEMBER

September 1st means one thing in this house to this young lady. Dove season. She asks about it all year, and enjoys the date with dad. Working on her shot and how to cook them. We had Mike's parents over for dinner and he cooked them up. 

If they are going to shoot them, they better see the process through.

 

Everyone wanted in on the action....next up Gino Ray...

 Mike's cousin Heather got married to Kyle Getz at the beautiful Bare Ranch in Lodi.  

Such a fun family night out. Giada loved the dance floor!

 Grandma Barbara and her Great Grandchildren

 Cross Country - these 3rd graders have been running fast. Fun to watch this season

A quick visit with friends while the kids run around like maniacs!

 Nonni and Nonno took the kids to "Kids Day" at Heritage Dining & Provisions. 

Good day had by all!

 Happy Anniversary. 11 down and many many more to go. Quick 24 hour getaway to Tahoe.

My parents took the kids up to meet Matt & Steph camping for Matt's birthday. 

The kids had a blast and can't wait to go back on another camping adventure.

 The quick and easy Harvest Fest project for Giada's class ended up taking much longer than expected. The glass broke on the vintage window, but I am sure the new glass is much stronger. That's what I kept telling myself - lol. Thank you Linds for picking up the window for me!! Thank you to Mike for having the patience and figuring out how to make this all straight. I would have for sure gotten it all crooked! The kids were very proud of the finished project!

St. Anne's Harvest Fest - The kids always have a blast, and the parents are glad we are past that weekend of the year! LOL!

 Winning fish is always a highlight of Harvest Fest. The kids are all so sweet to give Lorenzo all their fish. Just another thing to add to our zoo.

 Lorenzo and Seve enjoying Sunday Funday!
