August 08



Gareth was leading at a friend's church in Oceanside in San Diego County, so we made the most of it and had a mini-break with the lovely Tony and Bobbi



We did the zoo on a very hot day - the hippos were cool, though (double meaning intended!)



Sunset on Carlsbad beach after fish and chips and Coldstone Creamery ice cream. Perfect.



Us!

Washington DC part 4 - and the tooth fairy!

The rain began to fall only as we ended the evening. This photo is backstage - there were more than three people there!!

A view of the stage from backstage. Toby danced with some new friends, watched closely by his own bodyguard who followed Lizzy and the kids everywhere!

And the day we got back from DC, just before Gareth left for Nashville for a week, Daisy's tooth fell out! Good timing! The tooth fairy came but apparently had some things to say about thumb sucking...
