Our home for the first night: Tenaya Lodge

Shane hit it off with the other boy at the pool. 🙂  A beginning of a new friendship…

After swim, we gathered for cocktail hour  

followed by BBQ dinner with a live concert

Smores!

We flewed to San Francisco this morning and here we are having a delicious dinner with my cousin’s family.

Thank you for treating us to dinner! It was soooo good to see you guys!

Chloe’s friend’s family invited us over for a playdate at their lake.

Shane caught a frog.

So happy we got to squeeze in one more playdate before we go off to our summer vacation. Thank you for the awesome time!

Aside from the great fellowship with my brothers and sisters in Christ away from our daily chores, the church retreat for me is about slowing down and reflect on my spiritual journey… I’m so grateful for this time with my church family every year.

We are back! 

For their end of the year party, the girls chose kayaking and paddle boarding. 

basketball @ 10pm

We also had Shane’s friend over so he doesn’t feel left out.

Kids played Capture the flag in the yard.

Our neighbor dog came to join the fun.

I planned a surprise graduation party for Chloe and her friends after school today. Graduating elementary school is kind of a big deal.;)

Chloe and her friend wrote on the cookies.

We are going to watch “Wonder Woman” in the garage.
