Summer Recap

Let's revisit our summer, shall we? It was one of those great summers, filled with lots of family time, friends visiting, & new food finds.

Rebecca & Ian
Auntie Lynn

Reading w/grandpaReading to myself

I like this photo bc it looks like she is a 'walker'...but she is not. Still just cruising. Meeting cousin Emery in Santa Maria

Sending daddy off to Bolivia @ LAX Planet Earth w/LA Philharmonic @ The Hollywood Bowl

Joey's 32nd Birthday
I learned how to make joo-muk bbap. Easier than making ramen. It was just us 4 gals for awhile

Renegade Craft Fair...snagged some Happy Tape and stationary. Right up my alley!

At San Luis Obispo for Campmeeting. Aka the-summer-I-learned-not-to-travel-to-unknown-lands-with-a-toddler-and-left-promptly-after-3-days. G--best advice ever.

Squeezed in a fun playdate w/new buddy ChristianI just crossed my fingers that we wouldn't get pulled over during our 4-hour car ride. We didn't.
Back in LA, where sleep did not elude us:)

Adding a new brunch spot to the rotation, Le Pain Quotidien. Good coffee.

I've been living in LA 8 years, & this was my first trip to the California ScienCenter. Free admission, with $8 for parking. Spent at least an hour here in the toddler room

Ecosystems is here to stay! So cool!

I'm assuming it was cool, by baby's blank stare into ginormous aquarium
Good times w/auntie Jess

Class 302's shaved frozen condensed milk w/mangoes & strawberries. Trying to figure out how to make this at home.

Tim's homecoming with meat. 10 years in the making? Saying farewell to Chris & Traci. Enjoy Michigan for us.
Becca-locks. This one fit "just right."

Last hurrah w/my sister, who stayed w/us for 5 weeks this summer. At the grand opening for Intelligentia Coffee in Pasadena.
Some great news to leave you with--our next door neighbor Alice is now our full-time nanny! We couldn't be more pleased...
