Maternity Session


I had a maternity session a few weeks ago - I really like them! There are so many to choose from. There are a few pics on her blog if you want to check out - just click on Julie Cheshire on the right of my blog...

Trip to Pasadena

We just got home from our trip to Pasadena. We went to a wedding down there - and had such a great time!


The first night we were there - Garrett and Amy went to the rehearsal dinner, Steve went to a Dodger baseball game - and my parents and I were on kid duty! we walked to CPK for dinner and then gave the two boys their first bath together!
The next day was the wedding!
Here are my two boys! So handsome... were waiting for the golf cart to take us down to where the ceremony took place. 
It was pretty hot outside - luckily the ceremony was short and sweet! They had a parasail for each couple to hold up - you can see them in the background. 

During the cocktail hour - we let Mason run around outside - trying to burn a little energy

I can't believe how  grown up he is getting...

My parents...

Garrett, Amy and Caleb...

Then it was time for dinner - good thing Amy brought a banana - the kids were served fries and chicken tenders! Between Mason and Caleb our table was a disaster with all the snack food on the floor surrounding the highchairs. 

Here is the first dance - Kevin and Tammy Weaver
We have been family friends with the Weavers since I was in preschool. Garrett and Kevin have been best friends since they were little. 

Here is Mason getting serious with his dinner - dress shirt off and all!!!

Not only did they have wedding cake - but they also had a dessert (make your own sundae) bar. Mason and Steve hit that up - while I waited for the cake...


Then my son turned into this dancing fool! I have never seen him dance before - he was having such a great time at his first wedding.



The next day we headed for the Santa Monica beach. Mason really liked putting his feet in the sand and letting the waves wash over them. He also built sand castle with Steve and my dad. Don't you just love my dad's sun hat!


Another great family vacation!

well the belly is growing....Im 31 weeks - and counting!





It's been a long weekend! My sister came into town, she just finished her junior year at UC Davis, moved out of her apartment, and is going to Europe for 5 weeks tomorrow. I have been helping her pack, run errons, and prepare for her trip. She will be spending 1 week in London, and 4 weeks in Rome - traveling, and taking a class. Have a wonderful time Angela, we will all miss you, and will see you soon! She will be blogging - if you want to follow her travels along. 

Today is Fathers day! Mason woke up at 630 - and Steve took him to get donuts and starbucks for breakfast! Mason picked out a "special nummie" as he said - chocolate covered with red, white, and blue sprinkles. They brought the treats home - I made some eggs to go with the sugary treats - and me, Angela, Steve, and Mason ate breakfast. Then we went to visit my grandpa at his board and care in Castro Valley. My brother and his family met us there. Mason had a great time - we all sat outside in the beautiful sunshine and watched Mason run around the backyard for an hour straight. He was a hit with the elderly crew there - and grandpa really enjoyed seeing Mason and Caleb. For dinner we had a BBQ with our family - thanks everyone for bringing a dish to share... Happy Father's Day!
