Cici had a Birthday!

We celebrated my mom's birthday, than none other...Mexican. Our family's favorite! I can remember back to El Torro on Johnsferry Road and thinking what a treat, when my parent's and I would enjoy a meal there. My parent's often ate lunch there and run into each other, not knowing the other would be there, because their places of business was extremely close as well as our house. I know random childhood memories.








Happy Birthday, we all LOVE You!!!!

The 4th of July...a little behind but so be it!

We made it back to the beach in lovely P.C. Beach, FL. There were no signs of oil and hopefully it will stay that way. It was nice to get to the beach one more time this summer. We were able to take a few...400 plus, family pictures minus Lindsay & Jeff :-(, with the help of some amazing friends, Elizabeth & Brian Downey. Brian is really a gifted photographer and really should charge for his services.








Our lovely photographer couple!



It was a pretty chill vacation. The kids, I mean, Brayden enjoyed the fireworks this year. Gabriella made it to the beach and watched from the boardwalk and then fell asleep to be awaken on the beach by fireworks. JOY! She finally calmed down and watched for a minute and then wanted to head back. It rained one afternoon and Brian and Gabriella played in the rain and splashed in the puddles.

1st Haircut

Brayden got his haircut today for the first time. It was more like a trim but the boy needed some relief of his hair our of his eyes. What a cute place we went to, Pigtails & Crewcuts. We hadn't been there before and what a darling shop. Brayden was treated to a taxi car salon chair and a squeaky duck bubble wand while his hair was being snipped. BTW we didn't cut off too many of the curls!
