Memorial Day Weekend 2016

Yet another weekend spent packing and moving...but it all went pretty smooth! We had the best movers ever - Johnny and Ian saved our life. They're obsessive and super anal and our storage unit looks cleaner and more organized than our house ever did. Got everything squared away this afternoon, Noah left for SD for a couple of days and the kids and I are settled into a hotel. We board the plane to Amsterdam on Sunday! We spent the afternoon at the pool and the kids couldn't be more excited about the hotel breakfast tomorrow morning.
My sweet girl cruising at the park. A random four year old was the lucky recipient of this bike that day. Noah and I were seriously so creepy the past week following parents around asking if they wanted our stuff. Feels good to purge.

Finn wrote me a letter last weekend. Love that kid.

Emmett acting like a two year old. Definitely seeing some of his naughty side come out. He loves saying "doodybutt", "poo poo butt" and "are you happy at me?"

My work had a going away party for me and gave each of the kids a backpack stuffed with things to do on the plane. So thoughtful and they loved everything.

Packing day! The kids went to a friends house while the movers got us out of the house. They came home when it was just about empty and Finn was so upset. Tears, and saying he changed his mind and didn't want to move anymore. It broke my heart. I took them all to our storage unit today so they could see all of their stuff and understand it better. Trying to focus on the adventures ahead and not on what we're leaving behind. Onward!!

What we've been up to

It's been cold and snowy! We got almost a foot of snow on Monday afternoon and the kids had a snow day on Tuesday. They got hours of TV in the morning and then Noah came home and we all went sledding. The hill by our house was absolutely packed with kids. We had so much fun. Emmett cried and cried, saying "brrrr" until I threw him on a sled with me and flew down the hill. He cried the first time, and then loved it after that. Sophia and Finn were both so brave. Noah build them a jump and they both flew over it on the sleds over and over again. Finn loves to shovel the sidewalk. Noah snowboarded a couple days over the weekend so Finn was the man of the house - shoveling so Sophia doesn't have to even walk on the snow. Ha! Sledding! I went to a fun wine tasting party with other Teller moms on Saturday night. This was the welcome to the party.  Story time! Oh Emmett. 

Sophia turns 5!

Our little bunny turned FIVE last week! I can't even believe it, a whole hand. She took lollies to school for her classmates, and then we had a party at La Jolla Rec Center on Sunday. Complete with a bounce house, pizza and a cake big enough to feed at least 100 people. Seriously, the cake was ridiculous. Apparently I ordered a full sheet instead of a quarter or a half. Oooopsies. I think five is gonna be a great year for Soph. She has made lots of new friends and is so happy to go to school everyday. I'm so happy she's in TK, she is loving it. She got a new bike from us, and lots of cool art stuff from friends, and her first Barbie! She also got another Wonder Woman costume from Nay Nay, thank goodness. Cruisin' on her new ride. Now we just have to get rid of those training wheels.  The actual night of her birthday she requested pasta so we went to Filipi's in PB. Hadn't been there in at least a decade and it did not disappoint. The waitstaff sang her ...

Our trip to Croatia

Helloooo! Well, we've had a few things going on so the blog has been neglected. But I want to post pictures from our last two trips this summer - Croatia and Italy. The first week of August, we flew to Split, Croatia and stayed there for a night at an Airbnb. Split is a big city with a great downtown area full of outdoor cafes, a huge jewelry market and is a main port to a whole bunch of Croatian islands. We spent 5 amazing days in Croatia - we absolutely loved this place. Gorgeous scenery, friendly people, very touristy with people from all over the world and inexpensive.  One of the many beaches in Split...     Noah bought a sweet raft for the kids. He about passed out blowing it up. Afternoon at the beach. Me and Finnster looking for a lunch spot. Sophia became a little fish this summer. She loved all the hotel pools and lakes/oceans/seas we came across. She met a friend this day, Thea, who we played with at the beach all day and then coinciden...
