Orrin's Baja Buggyz Birthday Bash

For Orrin's Birthday this year we took the family and a couple handfuls of friends to Baja Buggyz. We all had an incredible time!


Aleya is hanging on for dear life.

These pint size buggyz were a blast for adults, as well.

They had a cool track with sharp turns and bunny hills, and lined in tires for the crashes.


Joseph took mom for a spin.

Even Amara got to drive!

We ended the fun with pizza and presents. It was economical in time and money!

Fishin' in our yard

There's nothing like having your own fishing pond in the backyard. Since it's connected by pipes out to Doctor's Lake and the St. Johns River, we have an abundance of fish, waiting to be caught.

Orrin likes catching the big catfish.

Drama Club Field Trip to Alice in Wonderland

Orrin and Amara are in Drama Club at their school and will be performing in Alice in Wonderland. Andrea will help out with the music for the play. We had a fun field trip to the Alahmbra Dinner Theatre to watch a play of Alice in Wonderland.




Our director, Ginger Leinecker, got some great ideas for costuming and set from the show.

After the play, we feasted at Cici's Pizza.

Orrin's 11th Birthday


Orrin's cake came out a little odd this time. I was going for a big "11," but it morphed into a scary clown. I am definitely loosing my edge in cake decorating.

Aleya helped put in the candles.
