Recap of June

It’s Summer! Time to enjoy family, the outdoors and vacation. This summer we decided to make a list of some of the fun things we want to do with our family.

q Go to Half Moon Bay and walk on the beach
q Go to San Francisco as a family of 4!
q Replenish our wood supply for future projects
q Vacation in Tahoe with family and friends
q Visit Gorilla BBQ again and introduce Isabella to the local king of BBQ
q Go on a weekend family trip somewhere…..San Francisco, Seattle, Santa Barbara, Solvang (not necessarily a city starting in an S though)
q Play in our backyard kiddie pool
q Drink a glass of wine under the stars on our new pergola
q Visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium
q Take Sophia to Disneyland
q Go to a movie with Sophia
q Attend my brother’s wedding & swoon over Sophia as the flower girl
q Take millions of photos of our girls doing all these fun activities
q Make 5 new recipes
q Fill our new freezer with lots of homemade meals & treats to enjoy when I am working again

I am sure this is just the start of this list…….

A re-cap of June, the first month of summer!!!

Attended 7 kiddie birthday parties and before the beginning of each one Sophia asked if the present for the child was for her. We would say no and she would be sad until she realized there was cake to eat at the party. At one of the last parties our friends handed us a birthday present for Sophia. She asked if it was for her and we said yes. Her response was “Finally, it’s about time”. It was too funny.









Displaying one of the many masterpieces that she made in preschool.


Cyrus built and finished our outdoor table, which will definitely be the centerpiece to many summer dinners!

Isabella continued to grow and amaze us. She turned 2 months old and got her first set of shots, which she managed quite well.

Our family right now at one of the birthday parties.
