So we decided to escape the heat and camp at the beach…..with the whole family!! My girl and her guy for a short bit, but at least we were all there together for a bit. So fun…….. here’s The Dots having breakfast and no doubt discussing what’s ahead for the day! We took a day and went to the San Diego Zoo. My sister in law, niece, nephew and their boyfriend/girlfriend also joined us.
We were lucky enough to get to feed the giraffes. Here’s my girl with a bucket of biscuits,
and my neice with a very
hungry friend.
Next we were off to visit the Koalas…Big Dot can hardly believe it and Little Dot with his
mommy was so excited and really, really wanted to touch that Koala!!!! Here’s our guys hanging out at the zoo playground….notice the wet hair…..it was SO HUMID, we were all dripping. Even so, the day was
so perfect and ended with a fun train ride for the boys and their mom and dad.
Sewing, nothing here…too much playing this week for me!! I do have some wonderful tutorials to share with you. Thanks once again to the crafters for sharing their pictures with us, and please give a shout out to them on your blog if you use any of their tutorials.
