The FIFTH Annual Family Photo at Bianchi

Don't ever doubt the power of this family, a digital SLR, and a 2 second delay remote shutter! Today, on our drive back from Lompoc (where we were for Nicole's baby shower), we stopped by Bianchi to take the 5th annual family photo! To see them all visit the album here. 

We cannot believe how much our little guy has grown since our visit there last year (he was only 11 months, not yet walking, just a few teeth, but still so much fun)! Start the countdown...this little love turns 2 in about 5 weeks! 

Our Little Bookworm

Little man likes to go to bed with a book these days. It's pretty adorable. 

Capitola

I used to joke that we moved from our old townhouse to our current house in San Jose to be "closer to the beach". Halfway kidding, but it's definitely true. We're less than half an hour from Santa Cruz and Capitola...and if we weren't so darn busy this Summer, I think we'd be out there nearly every weekend! While Jess & Payton were here visiting, we headed out to Capitola with "Uncle Ivy" and "Auntie Carlene". Great day, warm weather, and happy little ones!

Backyard BBQ & Pool Fun

Fourth of July weekend, we had a bunch of friends over for some pool fun and BBQ action! I love seeing our backyard full of little ones...and just love the memories we are making this Summer! How cute are these kids!?
