Winston's Photo Blog

1. This year the strawberry and blackberries plants produce enough fruit for us to enjoy daily. We planted a pear tree in the place of the old apple tree and the olive trees produced olives. We also planted a fig tree in the fruit yard and discovered that we have wild cherries growing in the backyard.
2. For fourth of July we went down to OC, lit fireworks and spent time with friends. Penelope got roller skates and Winston a skateboard.
3. In his spare time Winston built very numerous Lego Star War sets and read all the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books
4. Winston discovered Taco Bell while watching the NCAA tournament and made sure to have his grandparents take him during his trip to OC.
5. We did hikes around the Bay Area, went to the tide pools, Petaluma, Sonoma, Napa and spent countless hours playing and gardening outside.

On Wednesday the kids will start school.

Winston has watched a few of the Olympic events, mostly swimming, and with that comes commercials. He wanted a swimming cap so he could swim as fast as Phelps and he learned that when athletes are very tire they put slices of cucumbers. Today, after he was done flying his kite and riding his skateboard he said he was exhausted an needed some cucumber slices to relax. I am surprise he didn't ask for his own pair of headphones just like the other swimmers.
