Almost done with the exterior! We just have plumbing and electrical and stain the decks, buy a new BBQ… The yard will take a little more time, hopefully not more than a month.
Its so beautiful!

Sienna and I arrived to pick up Page at Pony Camp and she was out in the paddock riding one of the big horses. She was riding backwards, standing up, and even trotting! She has no fear. Sienna was loudly yelling “Gaga” over and over and she had a great time watching the girls play on the trampoline. I think we have another horse rider in our future…

We switched gears completely on the paint color and decided to go with a cream/beige color. We just got the gutters on today. We are still waiting on our front door so after that we will be all done with siding and paint.
We have some pretty old growth plants in our yard and a super yummy cherry tree.
This is the beginning of our fenced in garden. It has to be 7 feet high to keep the deer out. Page calls the deer “Angie and Jolie”. I think it should fit all our tomato plants!

Its the last day of school for Page. Another year come and gone, I can’t believe it. Now what are we going to do for the summer??
Lots of ballet, swimming, soccer… We have been trying to find a theater camp but she seems a bit too young still. We will hopefully fulfill her need for drama while heading to the Los Gatos Theatre FROZEN sign-a-long screenings! I can’t wait for that…

Happy Mother Day to all the Mama’s out there! We took the girls down to Capitola and Page had a go at her second time surfing. The weather was amazing today. Its so awesome we are just 20 minutes away from some beautiful beaches. Sienna and I played with seaweed and tested the water while Brendan and Page took to the waves. Page caught a pretty big wave and had her first wipeout. She needed a break after that. After some burritos she wanted to head back out for some more waves. Afterwards we headed to Testarossa Winery for some Mother’s Day wine and snacks. Its been such a good day, so much to be grateful for!!

Little Oak Art Day was a chance to see the work that Page has been doing through the year.
The highlight for us was seeing one of Page’s artworks framed and hanging in the office.
This year Page worked on Native American totem poles and dream catchers as well as the food-themed items shown in her classroom.
In the art room we also saw Page’s collaborative work inspired my The Masters and her inspirational art teacher, Miss Jenny.
