Labor Day Weekend 2011!


Labor Day weekend has come and gone but nothing is going to leave a more permanent mark on the weekend than those absolutely obnoxious GA Bulldog uniforms and their loss to Boise State! I am still in shock over the PS3 game day ghetto gear, in my opinion!

Never the less, California now has Bulldawg presence in El Dorado County! We had Camilo and Linda over for the game and we still had a great time watching our favorite team.
On another note... it is nice to watch the night games on the east coast at a decent time out here and also from my couch! Still there is nothing like Sanford Stadium!

The girls kept busy with their "snow day"! Yes, Emma turned our kitchen into a
Styrofoam snow day. My parents sent her a snow globe from Oregon and she used the Styrofoam it came in as her fake snow from her "Emma Snowblower!"

They ran in the snow....

They tried to eat the snow....
And they even made snow angels!
After a good sweep and a quick vacuum, snow day had passed and we were back to the game.

We were able to get a lot of time at the pool and Dave a game of golf, this weekend as well. We are slowly starting to get a group of friends and it is great for the girls! Emma hung with her bud, Erica!
Monday we even hit the bike trail. Emma got a new helmet.... that she had to wear in the car on the way to the bike ride. She said later that she had a headache from wearing the helmet too long. Go Figure! My head would hurt too if I wore a bike helmet for 2 hours.

The picture looks good, but about 30 minutes in. I was carrying Ellison and Emma legs were"too tired to pedal". Thankfully, there is a Mexican restaurant on the trail and it was not to early for a Margarita.

One last thing to note. Ellison hates having her hair in pigtails. I mean H.A.T.E.S I.T! This may be the only picture of her with pigtails for quite some time. So I will relish it!

I am not sure why God gave me two girls that hate to have their hair fixed. Maybe he knew I was terrible at doing hair and thought he would help me out. But, I am thankful that they will wear a bow!
