A day at the Races

We headed to the Del Mar Races with friends. It was a good time without kids. Thanks Amy for being our driver! :) Too bad none of us were big winners!

Vanessa, me, Amy, Sara and Erin!

Love this guy!

Showering Bri and Emerson

Look Whooo's having a girl!! August 29th was a perfect day to shower Bri and Emerson with love! Her shower was at Sundried Tomato Cafe in Laguna and it was perfect. It was quaint, sweet and delicious. The weather was amazing, the food was delicious and the company was divine! Everyone had a great time. Alyssa, Bonnie, Jen and I put it together for Bri and I think it was very special for her. Thanks for all your help girls! Now we have to meet the babe!

The beautiful mama to be!

Some of the silly guests!

Precious moment

Caught these two cuddling on the couch!

Playing at Grandma and Grandpa's

Mike and I headed to the races with friends and the kids had a sleepover with Grandma and Grandpa. These were a couple shots I took before I left. Maddy loves the Big Wheel at Grandma's house. I told her when I was little I loved mine too. And Brody- he ALWAYS has a bat in his hand. Grandpa loves that he is a Dodger fan! :)

Seein' Shamu

A couple of weeks ago we headed south to Sea World. The kids loved it. We went with Gamma, Auntie Bri and Grey! It was a perfect day. We saw Shamu, the penguins, the dolphins and polar bears. We played at The Bay of Play and had yummy yogurt. It was a great way to tire the kids out and they all slept on the way home- which is rare.

Celebrating in Napa

Mike and I spent the weekend in Napa celebrating six years of marriage! The weather was amazing! The wine was amazing! It was so fun to be together and celebrate the day we said

 "I Do".

Started off with lunch at the AMAZING Gott's. Best food in Napa!

My Guy!

The vines!

The Grapes!

Tasting!

The grounds of Robert Mondavi - one of our favs!

So cool to see the grapes on the vines!

Picnic lunch

Cheers to another six years and more...
