Catching up

We loved having Brooke here with us this week. She is definitely our favorite family member and will be paying for her to come back and visit again. We just don't understand how it's possible for one person to be so awesome. We love her so much. She's the best.

A New Favorite

Thanks Tiff for introducing me to this site. It's a new favorite. If you are a mother, sister, or daughter you need to check it out.

A Fun Day with the Family

Thanks to daytrippingmom and just-spotted we had a fantastic day in Long Beach. We took a guided tour of the tidepools here and then headed over to this festival to watch the pirates and then we ended the day here, touching sting-rays, sharks, and star fish. I love family days!

Happy Easter!

Easter was a lot of fun this year. Saturday we took Tea to an Easter Egg Hunt/BBQ. She had a great time with all of the kids and loved the chocolate! Today we went to church and heard some great lessons on the Easter story and then we enjoyed dinner with some friends.

Look Mom & Dad, I'm Walking!

Lil Tea took her first steps 3 weeks ago and hasn't slowed down since... (please ignore the laundry and tired mommy in the background)

Outside on a Warm Day

Our neighbors have two dogs that lil Tea loves to watch. She loves to go outside and wave to them.

I Love My Oranges!

Our Lil Bear

Lil Tea loves her bear pjs. In fact the other day we put her hood on and she didn't take it off for hours.

Santa Monica 10K

I did it! I ran a 10k under an hour! It was a beautiful morning and fun race! I have to thank my friend Tiffany for pushing me and helping me reach my goal. After the race we hung out by the beach, Tea loved the sand! We sat in the sand making circles with her hands for about 15 minutes. It was so fun to watch her. Then our friend Stasy made us a great lunch before we headed home. We had a great weekend!
