A GREAT 4th of July wekend!

This past weekend we had one of the busy and craziest weekends that I can recall in a while. Conan and I packed up the family and headed up to Mendocino for a great 4th of July weekend!!! We had the pleasure of staying at one of my best friends house. Alise and Lings house was SO cute!! Each morning Alise and I would do yoga out of the bluffs over looking the ocean and Cameran looked forward to gathering all the eggs from the chickens! The whole family had a blast and we can't wait to go up again and send time with everyone!! 4th of July parade in Mendocino!! My Beautiful Sister and I enjoying the music in the park!! Time to play in the sand!! I'm still changing diapers with sand in them:) My beautiful friends Katrina & Alise.. Love you guys SOOOOO MUCH!!! Conan having some much needed guy alone time!!!

Just one good photo PLEASE!!

So I don't know what it is about Cameran lately but every time I pull out the camera she is striking these cheesy poses. I can honestly say I can't think of the last time I got a decent picture of her, she is ALWAYS look away from the camera or giving me her poses! Whats a mom to do! Just ONE good picture that's all I'm asking for!!!!!

What can I say children have NO respect for photographers!!

Armstrong Woods

SO in preparation for our big hike up Half Dome this coming June Conan and I are trying to GET IN SHAPE. Which those of you who know that I'm not really the GETTING IN SHAPE KIND OF GIRL! I kept hearing about this place called Armstrong Woods so we decided to pack up the girls and give the hike a try. What I thought would be torture ended up being a blast. The girls did SO great and the hike was HARD but felt great in the end. But best of all I got some great pictures of the girls which I'm pretty excited about!

Out of control Roses,

I just wanted to share with you guys the out of control roses that are taking place in our back yard. I have never seen roses that are so in bloom and stay in bloom for weeks now. This weekend Cameran and I went around and cute roses for the bathrooms, bedroom and kitchen and still it didn’t make a dent in the amount of roses we have in our back yard. There are so many I cant seem to cut them fast enough. They not only smell GREAT but I have loved waking up in the morning and having my cup of tea and looking at the plethora of roses in the yardJ

Cameran and her new BFF

This past weekend we went to Tita’s house (Conan’s Mom) and sent some quality time just hanging around and playing. A couple months ago Conan’s friend Peter needed a place to keep his brothers girlfriends horse so Conan being the quick thinker he is offered up his moms three in a half acre property that is in desperate need of a horse to help manage all the over grown grass. Conan only made one condition with Peter and that was they we could tell Cameran that it was her horse! So as far as she’s concerned Daddy bought her a horse!!!! I guess you could say it has been love at first sight, all Cameran talks about is her new best friend Blondie. Last night as we were saying our good night prayer the whole prayer was about her new BFF. Each weekend we go to Tita’s house and feed Blondie, comb her and then Cameran just hopes up on her back and they go for a walk. Its been SO great watching Cameran with Blondie I truly think that she loves Cameran as much as Cameran LOVES her!! SO all I can say is move over princess there’s a new love in Cameran’s life!!

Two of the best weekends EVER!!!

For the pat couple of weekends we went to go see both of our grandparents which would be Cameran and Carley’ great grandparents. Better known as GiGi, Papa and Great Grandpa. Great Grandpa lives in Sutter Creek and it was the first time we have made the trek up there to visit. Great Grandpa’s house was a blast there was so much to do. Both the girls collected the eggs from the chicken coup, played with the pollywogs in the pond and tried to ride the baby goats.
As for GiGi and Papa’s house we seem to go there at least once every other month. This visit was short but lots of fun. We went fishing in the pond, went for a walk and enjoyed the sunshine and GiGi’s good cooking.
I just love the pace of life at both their house’s it makes me miss being in the country.

Great Grandpa's House

GiGi's and Papa' House

Oh yeah... we also ended our weekend by attending Sydney's first birthday party at the park. Nicole and Rob Sydney's parents hired a face painter and a clown Cameran didn't leave either one of their sides through out the whole party NO JOKE! Plus we had the melt down of all melt downs when it was time to take a bath and wash off all or her face paint! Whats a parent to do......

Never a Quite Moment

Last night while Conan and I were lying in bed we took a deep breath and just enjoyed the sound of silence! Lately the girls have been more wound up then ever, it seem like every moment they are awake their bouncing off the walls, pulling each others hair, making messes and just being CRAZY. As Conan and i talked last night, we both came to the conclusion that we can't wait until they have kids of there own. Our hope is that their kids someday drive them as crazy and they have driven us!

Picture Perfect Wedding

I Know that all of our friends and family's have been asking to see pictures of our weding that Conan and I photographed in Sayulita, Mexico a couple weeks back. Both Nicole (the bride) and Dan (the groom) were two of the nicest people we have ever meet. I hope you guys like the photo's
