St Pat's Hoops to close out 5th grade!

Very hard to get pics of Jbird these days.. both because she's so fast, and she's totally NOT into me taking pics of her. Ha! Busted post came 31 Flaves... MVP of her 5th grade team, a great honor and it is awesome watching her shine. She's a crazy lady on the courts.. Just goes all out!




her biggest fans at the final game


Great sports.. even losing the game, always doing the cheer tunnel... Campbell wanted so desperately to participate.. sometimes sneaking into the line.

Take your daughter to work day

Jbird was so lucky to accompany dad on a photo shoot at the beach over Spring break... Surfing with some of her idols and helping out... so fun!

90 Party in (sunny!!??) Portland

Unreal weather for the late April birthday celebrations of Uncle Bill and Joe! (60 plus 30) The circus party was complete with a visit from the parade calliope,... kicking off the Rose Festival season... No details spared, not surprisingly..

the birthday boys...and Leo, again.

another Benz sheet cake in the making
strong man competition

cake walk and sweaty baby.. it was nearly 90 degrees ... I don't think it's been that hot either here or there this whole spring and summer since!
Kate the cake master's beautiful lemonade cake for her big sis
Totally unplanned outfits, just happened to all have?!

Spring into Summer... back to the Flower Fields




Every year I say we will go take pictures at the magical fields of ranunculus that appear in April right here in Carlsbad... and every year, the month flies by and the rainbow fields are dirt again as the flowers disappear.  This year we made it, but taking a good picture did prove difficult.
