Danny #5!

Danny's 5th birthday was all about pirates!
We did it at a little local water park so the kids got to play in the water.  My best friend Melinda was a huge help with all the really cool pirate decorations.  The kids also got to go on a treasure hunt to find the hidden treasure, guarded by a mighty and fierce pirate.  The treasure chest was a pinata, but somehow I managed to not get any pictures of it !  Danny had such a blast playing with all his friends and getting all sorts of great birthday loot!


Yay! Here are some pictures my mom got that show our fearsome pirate Uncle Mark and the treasure chest.

Day Trip to See the Boys

David and I took a day trip down to Santa Cruz to spend a day with the boys.  They were with their dad for 3 weeks and I just couldn't go that long without seeing them.  We played at the river, the ocean, the park and had pizza for dinner!  It was a long, busy day but it was so very worth it!

Tyler's Birthday

Tyler turned 8 in June.  His birthday is just 2 days before Danny's - how much fun is that!  He wanted a knight themed party and we had a lot of fun with it.  David made catapults out of Popsicle sticks that launched marshmallows into a cardboard castle.  Then he built a bigger catapult that launched water balloons!  The girls and I made and decorated the cupcakes, and made Tyler his very own Dunning family crest t-shirt.

Wicked!

I was sooooooo excited to see Wicked.  And it didn't disappoint, I loved it!  I also loved a night out on the town with David and dinner at Ella downtown.  :)

Stupid Deer

 Stupid deer - hanging out in the middle of Latrobe Road after midnight - ended up totaling my car.  I wasn't really hurt, thankfully, and it ended up being a blessing in disguise as I would be needing a vehicle to fit 8 people in it sooner rather than later!  So now I have a new-to us Toyota Sequoia, and I love it!
