WELCOME LAYNE!!!!

Please welcome the latest member to our family....Layne Nicole Barringer. My neice weighed in at 9lbs 4ozs....I was blessed to be in the delivery room to watch this beautiful baby come into the world and it was the most AMAZING experience of my life....she is just an angle on earth!!! She had some complications after delivery, but is safe at home now and we are excited to visit her this week!!!

SUMMER DAYS

This summer is the first time in a LONG time that we have been able to make weekly trips to visit our family in Poway. It has been so great!! The kids have also been able to have sleep overs (which they love) too. Here are some fun pics of them in poway!!

BEACH TIME

We have gone to the beach several times this summer with our friends. It has been so much fun. Kiki and her friend Mia had so much fun digging in the sand and filling up their bathing suits with sand.

We started our summer out with a great fireworks show in Temecula...we hiked up to the spot we always watch them from and enjoyed a brilliant (alexis is helping me type this and said to use that word..haha) show. The Sanders family joined us and it was great fun for all the kids!!!

Alexis is riding again

I am so excited to announce that Alexis is riding again!!! She started last week with a student trainer in Menifee!! She is so much taller now that she fits so great on a horse!! She picked up all her great skills right away and wore a HAPPY smile the next day even though she was SO SORE!!!
