Taking boys to try our new fav boba place 

My barber shop is open ... and there's a line for my (free) service ;) 

Mari had her first high school soccer game and SCHS won 4-1!  


We drove boys back to USC for Tyler's last home football game as a student. He's very proud of his perfect attendance @ all home football games x 4 years!  If only he can say that about school.  Way to end Tyler's "colllege football career" with a 29-10 win against rival UCLA. 

2 college boys and a high schooler, but forever my babies you'll be!
