End of Summer

As another summer comes to a close, Cole and the family were able to spend a nice afternoon with their friends the Fords, Smiths and Monahan's for an end of summer BBQ with plenty of time spent at the both the BIG pool and the LITTLE pool. Cole and long time friend Rian Ford had a blast playing in the water and Cole (after watching the fearless Rian) jumped off the side and into the big pool and went all the way under the water... big accomplishment for a big boy.

Below are some highlight pics from the day











Cole with Justin and Kat as they prepare to move to Kentucky... we will miss them.

Vacation - Part 2: Beach

While we were in San Diego (still with the long hair) for our quick vacation getaway we were able to hit the beach and the pool. We took a very nice early morning walk in Mission Beach in order to show Cole daddy's old stomping grounds. We walked along the boardwalk until Cole wanted to head down to the surf. Being a child with no fear he was quick to want to feel the waves roll in. He had a blast.

Below are some pics from Cole's morning beach excursion.











Final San Diego post to come.

Mini Makeover

7 months... not a bad streak. Cole last had a haircut in February of this year. And while he wore the long hair very well, the time had come for a mini makeover. The only kicker is that Cole REALLY doesn't like haircuts :)

So it was very shocking when Cole's mom got a phone call from his school with the news that Cole, after seeing his friends receive a trim, volunteered to take a seat in the big chair. A few spritzes and snips later and Cole had lost his locks. We are sure to see them again, but until then we will watch it grow... slowly.

Here are some before and after pics.

Still more San Diego pics to come.

Vacation - Part 1: Legoland

The Black family just returned from a quick getaway to sunny San Diego. In three short days we hit Legoland, the beach and pool, Sea World and were able to see some friends while in town. While short, the trip was very relaxing and a nice break from the daily grind.

Here is a picture slideshow from part 1 of the trip.... Legoland!
