Where the **bleep** we've been...



Even though I haven't blogged in forever, I have been living.
Here are some things I've done:



Today was Jane's first day of school. Spanish Immersion Preschool at Lincoln School. She was super excited, as you can tell by her face in this photo...



I ran the Salinas Valley Half Marathon. It was brutal. Hills. Ouch. Yvonne stuck with me even though she could've gone faster for sure. Our time of 2:17 was slower than the last time, but I AM still alive, so I'll be grateful for that!




We spent a week at Bass Lake. ELEVEN kids, one house, lots of mayhem.



Clark is seriously crawling. So proud/so scared.


Amy & Brad & family stayed with us for a couple nights. We went to the beach in Monterey on one of the rarest of rares: an amazingly beautiful & hot day!




We got all gussy'ed up in blingy/fringy trick rider costumes (Jane & Clark) for the Kiddie Kapers parade. I painted the 101 sign. Another rare beautiful day!





Jane got cuter, taller, and more sassy.



Clark got chubbier, cuter, and more sweet.



We laughed, we cried, we loved each other!



And we went Berry Picking in Watsonville.



Whew. I'm almost done with my 12 on the 12th pages, too.

Watch out world! Thank you for naps and preschool!!!


Missed ya,
Stace

Your kids are so cute! Your family is very photogenic. Is Lincoln school year round, or 9 months? Very beautiful place. I've always wished I could have grew up in a place like this!
