Fathers and Sons

Friday night was fathers and sons. It was down at Churches, right on the sand. JB and CJ went down with Steve and Tommy.  
The boys and their dads.  JB feels so lucky that he has such a fun little guy to take camping.  And I feel so lucky to have a little girlfriend to hang out with when daddy and CJ are gone.
These little guys had so much fun playing together.  They became such good buddies.
Hey look it's Tommy Curren.  These guys were destined to be friends.
The Gigantic tent all the boys stayed in.  

Modest Mouse and REM

Our dear friends Deron and Cora took us to go see Modest Mouse and REM play at the Hollywood bowl. We had so much fun. It was a great concert.

Modest Mouse is one of JB's favorite bands so it was such a thrill for him.

REM was really good too. We only wished they played more of their hits. They played songs from their new album which we didn't know.  It was an amazing show! 

Nice Boy Chart

We made a nice boy chart to encourage CJ to be nice to his baby sister. Every time he shared a toy or was gentle and loving to her we gave him a sticker. When her filled out the chart he got a Little Einstiens Pat Pat Rocket.

Way to go little man!

We Love GG and Papa Joe!

Today we went down to GG and Papa Joe's home in Oceanside. We always have so much fun playing toys and eating yummy snacks. They are so sweet and loving, CJ and little M love them so much.

Summer Fun in HB

One of the things I love most about Huntington is the great group of moms and little kiddies. I can easily name 10 more moms that could have been here this day. Everyone is so down to earth, kind, and beautiful on the inside and out. I feel so lucky to have so many great friends.

Crazy Saturday

We had such a fun weekend. On Saturday we went to Sano and surfed in the morning. Then we went straight up to HB for a birthday party for Eden Sumner. It was a great party with lots of yummy food, fun games, and prizes for the kids, not to mention sprinkles cup cakes. After the party we headed over to the Baltzer's for a swim party. It was a non-stop day, and CJ did not even take a nap the whole day. He is still recovering on his sleep. This morning he took a nap at 10 am!

Daddy made a bamboo hut on the beach.  The kids had so much fun playing in it.

Eden and M playing toys together.  They are such good little buddies.

Mother's Day Weekend at the River

We drove out to the Colorado River for Mother's day weekend. It was so beautiful out there. The weather was perfect, high 80's. We had so much fun as a family playing in the water, making banana pancakes, watching movies, and giving CJ a haircut.

Miss B loves her glasses.  It is one of her many words.  It is funny hearing it come out of such a tiny little girl.  She is 17 months and has barely hit 19 pounds. 

CJ loves to play on the board and pretend like he is surfing.  Hopefully he will let us take him out again this summer.  Last year I think He was a little bit braver.

Baby sis loves playing in the water, splashing, and throwing rocks.

Surfer girls.

Happy Mothers day to me.  I have the best kids in the world.  I love them soooooooo much!

I DON'T WANT A HAIRCUT!!!!!!!!
A few chocolate chips later...
The results.  Good job Daddy.  No more helmet hair.

The Boys

Every Sunday my mom cooks dinner, and the family gets together. CJ has so much fun playing with cousins Lang and Jett. They do get a little wild, and they do need a referee constantly, but they do love each other so much!

Here they are on their "boat" rowing along.


Here they are playing music together. I think they would make a pretty cute band.
