Mark turned 50 on the 28th and the children and I sent him on a Geocaching treasure hunt for clues all around the neighborhood. The clues all had a puzzle piece in it and the puzzle gave the coordinates for the final: present cache. He received a new GPS receiver that is amazing. It's called the Garmin Colorado and it is a fun little toy....
We went to Vasona Park in San Jose last weekend and had a great time. They have a wonderful park and also a little train you can ride and carousel. Very fun!!
Austin has gotten a new loft bed and we put it up a couple days ago and he loves it. Ryleighs room is all moved around again, and we have been selling some furniture on Craigslist (love it!).
Yesterday was a nice day so we drove up the coast to get a challenge geocache along a beach. It was a neat beach with lots of shells for Austin and Ryleigh to look at and I even found 3 whole sand dollars!
Today my mom and I and the children went up to Ikea. A funny thing happened in the parking garage. There was a geocache on the top floor of the parking garage that I wanted to grab. I found it and Austin wanted to put it back in its hiding spot, as he was climbing back in the car his tooth fell out! It was wiggly, then tightened back up then just fell right out.
We had lunch in the Ikea cafeteria (so yummy). You can't go wrong with 99 cent macaroni and cheese for the kids!
Allergies have been killing me. Sneeze Sneeze.
