One Of My Favorite Jacobs!

Today I went to the Basaraba's Ward for baby Jacob's blessing! Uncle Brent did a fantastic job! We also loved hearing your testimony Brittney! There was a yummy breakfast at Brittney and Bill's darling house after the meeting. We had a great time, thanks for inviting us!

One thing that can be said about our family is, we know how to celebrate!

I think I shocked everyone that I made it on time "relatively speaking." Anytime before the opening prayer is on time in my book!

The "Sparkly Necklace Sisters"

Congratulations Jordan for surviving your first day of high school! Glad you found all of your classes...eventually! ;)

A couple of hotties!

cute, CUTE, CuTe! Where was your sparkly necklace Alex?

Little Einstein did some artwork on the table!

To my family...thank you so much for the necklace I have been coveting! As I was driving to church there was sparkles all over the ceiling of my car from the reflection of the bling. It made me smile really BIG! I love you guys!

Happy Birthday Zachary!

Happy 3rd Birthday Zachary! We Love you, little buddy!

San Diego

Last Week We:

Introduced Jakey to one of our favorite places...the beach. Good thing he loves it too, a must if you are a Drescher!

Played a ton in the sand! And we brought a ton of sand home with us as a souvenir!

Gossiped, um I mean chatted with Sherrie. Posed for many pictures with good friends!

Ate a little sand...it's fiber isn't it?

Had a barbecue in Mission Park!

The Mom's rode scooters around Mission Park. There was a little scooter mishap that left a mark or two. Good thing I know how to tuck and roll!

Went to Sea World

Rode the train (train red as Zachary called it!)Went to Seaport Village and rode the merry-go-round.


I got lazy about taking pictures at the end of the trip. We met Mike and Jan in Old Town and had some great Mexican Food. We talked about doing a family reunion next year, I hope someone will put it together (hint hint Mom and Jan!) We also ate a few :) times at Konos, our favorite breakfast place.

No sightings of our favorite two Pacific Beach legends Slomo and the Lion King (aka the flash, aka the eagle). The owner of Swings and Things tells us the lion king has moved to Hawaii. I guess we will have to plan a trip there next!

Can't wait to go back next year, we had a great time! By the way we tried a new hotel out, The Ocean Park Inn. We liked it as much as The Blue Sea Lodge, and it was closer to a lot of our favorite places!

Swim Team

Olivia had a great time this summer at swim team. She did a great job, and has many ribbons to show for it!

Enjoy!

Let's Celebrate!

To celebrate the end of the work-a-thon Sherrie and I took the girls out for pedicures. We had a great time, minus the pedicure lady offending Olivia a little bit. She asked Olivia"what is the matter with your face?" Olivia was mortified, but she will have to get used to it, as rude people ask her about her scar all of the time. (Of course, Olivia hopes no one notices it!) We couldn't hardly make out two words those ladies said (English was definitely not their native tongue), but THAT came out loud and clear.

Yes, the work-a-thon is done. It actually ended a week ago, but it took me this long to recover. I have been asked many times, "was it worth it?" YES! It was totally worth it. It actually went super fast, and we had lots of fun at work. What do you expect when you work with your best friend? A few people in my ward told me that Zane really missed me, although he will never 'fess up to that! Nonetheless, it was nice to hear my work at home is appreciated! So, if they continue having double-overtime...I may just have an annual work-a-thon. Zane gets an annual UTA, I think I deserve it!

P.S. Thanks Sherrie for the idea of the work-a-thon!

Two New Sparkles in Jake's Smile!!!

After months of drooling and gnawing, Jake FINALLY has two new teeth!!!
