Thanks Kids!

Our birthdays came in February and our kids got us a great gift, a night stay at the Half Moon Bay Ritz Carlton. Everyone knows how our March went so we weren't able to use our gift till Mothers Day. It was fantastic. We were in a room that had access to the club which we took full advantage of by eating and drinking our way through the stay. We were treated to wine and chocolate dipped strawberries in our room in the evening. We sat by the fire pit watching the ocean and 18th hole of the golf course.
It was a nice way to celebrate the end of our brush with cancer. Tom is doing so well. All he is waiting for now is his full energy level to return. This being said after the man played 62 holes at his favorite golf course! Cancer reminds you of just how fragile life is and to take nothing for granted. The enormity of that does fade some as things get better. We want to always remember though how blessed we are and how loved we feel. That will never fade. Thank you.

Harris Ranch

I am so sorry Jenn!!
On our trip to Irvine we got to visit Jenn Jenn!!! For all of you that must make the Highway 5 run occasionally - good news!! Jennifer is working at Harris Ranch. We called as we approached and she placed an order for Tri-tip sandwiches (yum). When we arrived we were able to sit on the patio and inhaled (unfortunately we were on a tight time line for the rehearsal dinner) the delicious sandwiches. Best of all we got to see and hug Jenn. We were able to meet her boss, the general manager of the whole shebang. We also caught a glimpse of the owner walking through the grounds. Now if only her horse could go to work with her.

When Brides Take Charge!

This weekend we traveled to Irivine for the wedding of Mary Beth & Scott. Mary Beth is Jamie's good friend from waterpolo at SJSU. At some point Mary Beth decided her buddy was going to be next in line. Mary Beth does some over the head warm ups then suddenly turns and sends a pass straight at Jamie! Jamie hardly had to catch them I think they would of stuck if the flowers had actually hit her. It was all pretty cute. That is what good buddies are for!
We also got to spend some time at our favorite B&B with Tom & Rhonda! Thanks Haley and Keaton for sharing your comfy beds and Rhonda for the delicious breakfast. It was good to see Tom coach one of his final soccer games....a chapter has passed for him as Keaton will move on in his soccer career.
We also got to spend quality time with Shawn but that is a whole other post!!!

Hi everyone!!

Hope you are all doing well!! I miss seeing what everyone is doing on here! The posts are getting sparse!

This isn't a great photo by any means but it just makes me laugh because I picture a baby boy who had so much fun bouncing on his new elephant that he popped off the seat. He looks a little drunk! Must be some bad milk (that's for you Dad)
Welcome home Aunt Jamie too!! Can't wait to hear about the trip!

Down Under

Here are two of my favorite pictures until I get them onto Picasa! New Zealand is beautiful, despite the long long flight down under it was really fun:
Milford Sound is gorgeous!

More to come shortly!
