Repost @iamjoymoy . What do you wish someone would have told you when you were in 6th and 4th grade? . It felt like it was just yesterday we were celebrating the end of another school year. But it was actually 2+ months of fun ago. We are getting ready for another first day of school! . What advice/tips/words of wisdom do you have for kiddos starting a new school year?

It was so great that we got vouchers to a ball game as one of the many summer reading game prizes this year. Thanks to @aclibrary #castrovalleylibrary , we enjoyed an evening with friends at the ballpark and got to watch a fireworks show afterwards! . There are still a few games left for the Homerun Readers program, as well as the other educational programs the @athletics have available for the community. Check their website or our family blog for info on how to end your summer break with a fun time at a game. Maybe you'll see @stomper00 around or at the Fun Zone. . What family fun activities have you join in on this summer? Movies at the park? City-organized street parties? Nature camp?

We blogged about our Oahu trip already but life is getting in the way of blogging/Instagramming so we wanted to let you know we didn't forget about the food! We will be sharing some good eats soon. . Where do you like to dine on your travels - popular tourist areas or where the locals eat? If you've been to Oahu before, what we're some of your fave food finds?

Have you been following along with our Oahu trip recaps on the blog or at @iamjoymoy and @normmoy's IG accounts? We are halfway through and have enjoyed savoring the moments since returning home to a field trip, an end-of-school-year meeting, last performances, and upcoming 5th grade promotion fun. 🛬 We have received some questions from those who plan to go soon or someday. We will probably answer a few as we post, and if we haven't answered by the end, we can write a specific post with some Q+As. ❓ Leave any questions you have about traveling to Oahu or about traveling with kids in general. We may not be able to answer all, but we'll answer as many as we can or help you find the answers. If you want to know about fishing in Oahu, we can't answer those questions but I saw someone post mostly about that in one of the Oahu hashtags. If you want to know about more foodie things, we may be the guides for you! 😋

Well, that was fun but it's back to real life this week as we had a field trip to #InNOutBurger, different rehearsal schedule for upcoming show with #CantabellaChildrensChoir, and end-of-school-year meeting.

Still a favorite treat around here! If you haven't tried a green smoothie before, we highly recommend @simplegreensmoothies' Beginner's Luck! It's a winner every time. 💓 _ What's your favorite kind of smoothie?

Just stopping by to say hi! 🤓 _ Any plans for the weekend? 🌸

Spring is right around the corner. There was a day when the temp was in the 70s. Otherwise, it has been going back and forth between sunny and cold and downpour and cold or windy and cold. It probably isn't truly cold in terms of single digit temps but it is cold for our area. 🌦️⛅☀️🌤️🍃🌡️ What's the weather like where you live?

** Lessons from Cooking ** For those of us who are not super great cooks, be encouraged! We are learning that it doesn't always have to look fabulous or be fancy to taste good. This was a creamy/cheesy broccoli/corn rice casserole...it was not fancy but it was quick and it was a hit. _ Here's what we've been doing: 1. Pick a dish/recipe. 2. Buy the stuff or shop your pantry. 3. Make it (mostly) according to the recipe. 4. Review what worked or didn't work, what did everyone like or didn't like, what do you want to change or add... 5. Repeat with review notes OR refrain from adding to future meal plans. _ What cooking lessons have you learned?
