Sunny Days


It was a beautiful, cool, sunny weekend in Berkeley. While the boys went to Little League, the Ostrin girls went to the Marina for a beach clean up as part of Ronnie's girl scout service project. Ronnie filled an entire bucket with junk.

And I didn't miss Little League after all. KRON 4 news was there doing a piece on spring, and Ben was front and center! He's the cute one in the white helmet.

Boboa


Weekday dinners are HARD. And monotonous. Endless searching on pinterest for "fast family dinners" isn't even very helpful. So last night I gave in and took the kids for Chinese, and it was a fun break. The kids sat at the counter and watched them make boboa drinks while they ate.

We couldn't resist.

And I was so glad not to be on my hands and knees after dinner cleaning up Noe's remnants.

Don't worry - I left a big tip for that one.

Spiders - did you know?

Did you know that not only do spiders have eight (hairy) legs
spider 01 bottom

but they also have eight eyes!
spider 04 eyes

Do you see them all? You never know what you'll find when you look at an arachnid under SEM.
