Shields in Mac Head to SLC!: September 2007

Handsome!

He was happy to get his haircut for school. I miss his long hair because his short hair makes him look so much older! He loves his bike.

We met our neighbors in South Beach to watch the Longboarding Competition. It started as an amazing day but when the wind picked up all of the kids just wanted to hide!

We made it through the first week of schol and we were ready to head back to Grammy and Grandpa's for some ocean relaxation!

Kenzie flew as Kearb pulled her! Kearb would let Levi go and he would slide all the way across the beach. So much fun! I caught some rays and watched the whales spray in the distant. AMAZING!
