Willing Subjects

Jack & Maya were good sports this evening while I was practicing with my replacement wide angle lens. You see, I dropped my other one and broke it and my wonderful mom got me a new one.

Happy Birthday Dear Jack!


My son Jack is 7 years old today! Cheers to my wonderful son! I am biased, of course, but I think he is incredible!

Daylight Saving Time




Even though the first Monday morning of DST isn't easy, it is so worth the groggy, tired eyes when we are rewarded with sunshine that lasts long enough to take the kids to the park in the evening after dinner. Even though the evenings last the same amount of time, the extended daylight makes it feel like we have so much more time for fun. We went to the park and Jack and Maya played their hearts out.

The Spongebob


My kids love Spongebob. Maya was so excited to finally "meet" him in person! This was taken at Pier 39 this weekend. We took the kids on an adventure. We took the Ferry Boat from Vallejo to San Francisco and walked our way up Embarcadero and took pictures, goofed around and had a great day. This was Maya's first time in the city. We had a terrific day.

Maya has a picnic


Maya asked me for a sandwich and when I followed her into the kitchen, she had the pink towel and drinking glasses set up on the floor and told me she needed a sandwich for her picnic!
