About Us

Welcome....This is the story of our family. As the parents of a 3-year old and an 12-year old we are on a non-stop journey through life that includes diapers, teething, soccer, and middle school. Believe it or not, the latter seems to be the most difficult.

At the Zoo

A trip to the zoo is always a great way to spend a Sunday morning. As we have annual passes we spend many weekends roaming around the zoo, enjoying that beautiful San Diego Sunshine in February. Rebekah and Jacob guide our trip through the zoo, and not a trip goes by that we do not visit the crocodiles.


And of course we cannot miss out on the petting zoo! Here is Rebekah showing Jacob how to feed the goats (I think it's just an excuse to feed the animals herself).


So after Rebekah's wonderful lesson in goat feeding, Jacob is ready to try himself. He did a really good job, you notice Rebekah is still "helping".

Now if you know me at all you know that my number one fear is snakes! I don't like them, they're, as Jacob would say, ICKY! So it is just natural that both my kids cannot go to the zoo without visiting the reptile house. This is one exhibit that if I never had to see it again I would not shed any tears. So begrudgingly I entered the reptile house, and documented my sons amazement at these slithery creatures.


Isn't just great how he sticks his face right up there to get a closer look (you got that sarcasm, right?) PS - notice the Seahawk logo on his hat :)



Jacob doing his best to imitate how snakes hiss with their tongues.


More snakes.........

So that is our visit to the zoo........every time we go Jacob is enthralled with all the animals and loves imitating their every move!
