Happy Anniversary Gramma and Pops!

What an incredible couple...37 years of wedded bliss! They seem more in love today than ever and they make us so proud.

Poor Girdie has resulted to sitting on the arm of the couch and pouting staring out the window. We love our puppy but she is so depressed! It is so hard for her to not be 'top dog' anymore!

Summer Lovin

Charlee had her first dip in the Pacific Ocean over the weekend. She cried when her toes went in but then seemed to like it! We are sure this is the first of many days at the beach for our future!

Day Trippin!

Gramma and Charlee and I had a busy day yesterday on a road trip from OC to Santa Monica to Santa Barbara and back. We had such an incredible time with our family and Charlee was an angel in the car which made the trip even better.


4 Generations with Great Grandma Mary



Cousin Natalie was in town from Oakland and came to visit us...we were so excited to see her 2 times in a couple of weeks!


Charlee watching Great Grandma Mary talk-- she was enamored


'I am a good girl in the car!'


Diane brought Hanna to come see us...they really liked each other and Charlee thought Hanna was very fun to look at. I can't wait to see these two playing together at Thanksgivings for years to come!




Great Aunt Janet is one of our favorite people...here she is with Hanna, Charlee and Gramma.


With the blankie she knit for Charlee


Travellin is tierinn!


We were so surprised and excited when cousin Mike and cousin James stopped by after work to visit. Charlee was super smiley and excited to see them.

60th and 80th!

We had an amazing time in Hemet celebrating two very special occasions- Art's 80th birthday and Art and Lois's 60th wedding anniversary. We hope we look as good and are as active as these two when we hit this stage! Charlee was so good during the party and enjoyed spending quality outdoor time on the Lester's beautiful golf course side patio.
