Christian's Boy School


Christian is in the neighborhood preschool. They meet twice a week. There are 6 families and Cheri teaches twice every 6 weeks. They named it Boy School because it just happened that they were all boys. Christian loves it. Cheri says, "6 boys full of energy! Just imagine how much fun they have!" Last month they picked strawberry at Sweet Berry Farms. Next month they are going on a field trip to the Fire Department.

Nicole's Swim Lessons


Nicole just completed 10 of 11 swim lessons and she made to level 9 (out of 10 levels in the pre-school classes). Check out this video of her swimming on her back, turning over to her front, kicking, and doing "big arms". It is really awesome to see how she has improved.

Camping at Guadalupe River State Park

We just got back from camping at Guadalupe River State Park. It was really fun. This is our second camping trip this year and our third in the past seven years. I miss camping and hope we can do it more. Cheri hopes that we can figure out a way to sleep more when camping. :-)

We ate tin foil dinners, roasted marshmellows, sang camp songs, slept (if you want to call it that) all together in our four man tent, went hiking, and threw rocks in the river.

Nicole's favorite part was a tire swing that we found at a park there. Christian's favorite part was swinging on the tire swing with Nicole. Cheri's favorite part was the pretty river and the warning about the 30 pound raccoons (which she claims she heard walking around our tent after I went to sleep). My favorite part was making memories as a family together.
