Beach Time





We went to Moonlight with my dad, Kelsea, Megan, and Evan. We met up with Beverly, Thomas, Colton, Aaron, Daniel, and Skyler. June cheered my dad and Thomas on against Skyler and Daniel in beach volleyball. June loved the attention from everyone. It was fun seeing our cousins and the guys Kelsea grew up with. They are all so grown up now. I remember looking out into our backyard one day when we were young and seeing Kelsea and Skyler laying on beach towels on plants (not the grass) looking at the sky while eating potato chips. They were funny kids.

Mary Poppins

My mom took Kelsea and me to see Mary Poppins tonight. It was a lot of fun. I loved musicals when I was a kid and I still love the music. I remember the first time I saw Seven Brides for Seven Brothers with my cousins at my grandma's house. It blew my mind. Once we had our own copy at home I pretended t0 be sick so I could miss school and practice the dance moves from the barnyard dance. Unfortunately it was a little to advanced for me and some of the moves were difficult without a partner.

I also love Sound of Music, My Fair Lady, Music Man, and Oklahoma. I saw a lot of them for the first time at my grandma's house on her beta player. Bev introduced Calvin to Seven Brides for Seven Brothers recently and the only part he requests to watch on repeat is the barnyard fight. I hope these movies don't feel too dated for our kids to enjoy.

Oakland Zoo



Waiting for the merry-go-round
After gagging herself

We had a really fun day at the zoo with Grandma, Rebecca, Steve, and Christopher. June would get excited when she saw an animal and would point at it. She was thrilled to ride the merry-go-round and the train. She didn't nap all day and started having a rough time when we were walking around Walnut Creek after the zoo. She decided to take her spoon from the back pocket of her stroller and use it as a gagging device. She threw up all over herself. She thinks her gagging reflex is quite hilarious.

Christopher and June



June has been having a good time with her cousin Christopher. She is very happy to have a buddy. June has recently started saying "hi" to greet people. It's the perfect word for our friendly little girl.

Del Rio



Kate, Annie, and Branden came into town to visit their grandparents and we got to tag along for some of their activities. June loved being around her cousins.
