The boys had a blast running around the CSU San Marcos campus learning about science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). They ASCII encoded their initials into a bracelet, launched air powered rockets, saw science demonstrations, and learned about first aid. Connor even got to hold a baby chick, which he loved!
Gavin was awarded his first place medal for his science fair project during the Friday Flag school assembly. It was both “dress crazy” day and St. Patrick’s Day, which explains the unique fashion choices you see in the photos. Congratulations again to Scientist Bub!
Aliciana was on hand to take some photos of the Turtleback kids running in the Apex Fun Run.

We met up with a few members of the Schwartz family for a build day at Home Depot. Connor was excited to get to build some wooden projects with his buddy Kyle.
Aliciana was lucky to get to go to the dairy farm with the kindergarten classes. The kids got to see how the cows take a shower and get milked, pet some farm animals, and play on lots of activity stations. Rolling down the giant pile of cotton seeds seems to have been a big hit.

It was a super long but fun packed day at Disneyland. We were there from 8:30am until 11:45pm… over 15 hours! We were able to get on tons of rides by making great use of the fast pass system.
Gavin’s mind was blown by Hyperspace Mountain but Connor was not a fan, although he enjoyed all the other rides. Gavin also got to go on Big Thunder Mountain twice in a row, using his brother’s fast pass and his own. He is becoming quite a fan of roller coasters.
