Bali

Between jetlag and getting back in to the swing of being in the real world I haven't had a chance to blog about our amazing trip. I'm hoping to do so this weekend. I did have to create a link to Allison's blog. She made an amazing video to music and to be honest my blog or pictures will certainly not be as cool so check hers out...Bali Hai.

Checking in...

Hello, we've had a busy first month of school. The girls both like their classes. Mia has her moments at drop off of tears every once in awhile but sticking to the routine has helped her adjust. She does loves Gizmo the class pet hamster. I'm sure we'll have pictures of him soon as he'll come home with us one weekend. Olivia loves school, her class, friends, and even homework. I haven't adjusted to the homework yet and find that it's busy doing homework EVERY night after school.

Olivia is playing soccer and LOVES it. We think she loves it more this year because she is on a all girls team. Both kids have started swimming again and Mia has really blossomed. I was so surprised watching her jump in and float to the top and flip to her back all by herself. We just want them to be safe near a pool and I see that confidence growing in Mia which is very exciting.

David and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary on the 25th. It was a low key night with dinner out but obviously a lot to celebrate & be proud of as a couple. We are very excited to be headed on Monday to Bali. I have a bit more anxiety about leaving the kids for 2 whole weeks but thank goodness we have wonderful parents that will be with our girls & giving us this time to enjoy each other. We both took a refresher dive course this past week and while I was very anxious about it (since I haven't dove in over 6 years) it all came back like riding a bike. I'm now looking forward to the experience and hoping there will be a lot to see out in the Indian Ocean! More pictures to follow soon:)
