The Galvins are here!!

The Galvins finally arrived late Tuesday night.... all McCurdy kids were sleeping!! We started Thursday off with a pre-breakfast swim. I am sure the neighbors were not too please with the sounds of 7 children who had not seen each other in a month frolicking in the pool at 7:30am


Our 1st excursion was to Sea World. It was fun. Rode the Atlantis, saw a couple shows, fed some Sting Rays and had a ball!




We ended our day with a sunset trip to La Jolla Cove. It was pretty overcast so no real sunset but we saw the famous California Sea Lions and climbed some trees!

4th of July Fun!!



Another great 4th of July at Fairbanks!! Dinner, games, dancing and of course, a great fireworks show!!

Another day at the beach!

My friend Annie, a roomie from college, and her kids come down to San Diego for a few days and a trip to Legoland. We were able to spend some time with them and had a blast. It was a lot of fun to see our kids playing together!

Fishing at La Jolla Cove...




Well, not fishing, fishing! We went snorkleing and saw so many fish. The were planty of giant orange fish that were really easy to spot and many that were a bit more hidden. The water was COLD! 68 degrees! I made it about 20 min, but the kids were much tougher. They stayed in for over an hour!


San Diego Zoo

A trip to the zoo with Grandad.

Emma and Maggie meet Claire

Emma is still riding. Yasmin met the girls and I at the barn and Emma got to ride Claire. Maggie was too small but she helped groom her and was able to sit on her. Then we watched Yasmin ride Claire. Claire is recovering from an injury and still can't jump but then cantered for us!


Wakeboard Camp



Finn had a great week at wakeboard camp. He had a blast. We all went down to the bay to watch him on Thursday but we did not see him for long. He blew by us in a blur, holding on with one hand to wave! We're hoping Pops' pontoon boat is powerful enough to pull him.
