Sunset

This weekend Matt and I had the pleasure to spend time with good friends, Tim and Laura Knapp!  They showed us around their favorite spots when visiting Santa Cruz.  Among these were the antique and farmer's market  and  The Natural Bridges State Beach.  We were able to see the Monarch Butterflies that visit from October through February.  I was not able to get a great photo of them with my small camera but it is a beautiful site to see.  After exiting the park we watched the sunset.  It was a wonderful day of fun, nice weather and beautiful sites!  Thanks Knapps!

ZAHRA BABY

Meet Marie and Zahra, who is still cooking in mama's belly.   Marie is a family friend, who we love so much!   I was so excited when she asked if I could take belly shots of her while on her trip home from Chicago.  Marie, safe travels home.  We are praying for you and your new family.  Can't wait to meet Zahra next year!  Love you.

Making the most of it

Here are some photos of Matt and I on our anniversary trip.   For the first time, we drove on CA-1 from Monterey to Cambria and it was beautiful!  We have an amazing coastline!  While in Cambria, we visited The Hearst Castle.  It was pretty awesome and I can't wait to go back for another tour.  Despite me being ill, we made the most of it and had a great time!  Check out the whole album on Facebook!

Happy four year anniversary babe!

Matthew,  you are my favorite person in this world!  I'm blessed to be your wife!  xoxo

We had so much fun!

Oh happy night!

I was so excited when I got the mail today to see a few of my favorite magazines come.  All I need is a warm cup of Abuelita, my magazines and its a happy night!

The Kiddy Kats!

I cannot believe that they are all grown up!  It felt like yesterday that my sister had her first baby...Kayla and now she is a freshman in high school!  They are all so precious to me!

The Bucket Shoot: Karis Hart

My best friend Meredith was visiting from L.A. with her daughter Karis Hart and we decided to do a 7month photo shoot.  I am always hesitant to do baby/toddler shoots because its sometimes hard to get them to do what you want them to.  Not this little girl..... she is all smiles!  Cannot wait to see them again!
