Half Moon Back Dock

Here's a fun shot I took while walking around the docks at Half Moon Bay a couple of weeks ago! There was so much to see from the viewfinder that I was pretty overwhelmed! Hope you like it!

Snow has settled in nicely!

Our newest member of the family has settled in quite nicely! Snow loves to play and run around the house! He even has a buddy the bite & wrestle with, a little stuffed sea lion! The funny thing is, the sea lion is white also! Snow loves to try to get out, which he has a few times. However, we're really not in the mood to lose a cat or chase him all over the court! He's eating well, pooping in the cat box, and sleeping like a log when needed! He's been a fun addition to the family indeed!

Pacifica Sunset!

During the course of the three days I managed to get in a few cool shoots and I still have not looked thru all of them in close detail! Kinda behind! But I will need to get my butt on target for this weekend! I also did a GREAT shoot last night and will need to be ready for the mud run next sunday!

There's the link! Its a whole crazy family fun day! Bobby and Chris will run the 5k, Brady and Sean will will a 1K, Drew and Ainsley will run a 100 mud dash, Melis, Ryley, Gabe and Val will run a 10K....me? I will be shooting the muddy people and watching Mila! Should be a total BLAST!

Happy Birthday weekend in SF!

I swear I am the luckiest idiot on the planet! We attempted a 5 day cruise, then a 3 day...and finally we ended up in Pacifica for the weekend! This was a Birthday celebration of sorts for me and Gabe(turns 40 next week, I turned 12!). We enjoyed wine on the coast, great meals, walks, a run(yes, I went too and missed my bike), hung out at Golden Gate Park(where's the wine!?!?), an amazing dinner, more food, a lighthouse and 628 pictures!
We geeked out with the camera on the tripod and here's one of many! Too many actually! Thank you Melissa, Va & Gabe! Awesome! AWESOME!!!!!!

What a weekend folks!

Holy cow! What a loaded weekend! Ready?!?! Friday we headed over the Val & Gabe's to catch up since we missed each other last weekend and to finish up brakes on one of their cars! Val threw an Indian dish together for dinner and that rocked, plus some awesome Heringer Wine! The kids watched a movie for a bit but that got old quickly because they seemed too excited to play with shadows from the projector! BEDTIME!

The morning quickly arrived with mowing the front and edging of course! In the meantime a picnic was being prepared by the girls while the boys worked! We watched Ainsley's soccer game and we then enjoyed the yummy sandwiches before round two at the house! More mowing and we took the pool down, see ya next summer pool! Gabe loaded up the truck for a dump run with Brady while Melis, Drew and I drove home! Drew, Val, Ainsley and Mila all napped!

Got in a great call from my Dad tii, 'brigado Pai!

We later met Gabe, Mila and Brady at the Heringer Winery for an owl release party, something we had planned for a while and our first wine club event! Val and Ainsley attended a birthday party and met us in West Sac after the activities. The movie projetor was set up in the backyard with speakers for the kids to watch Madagascar 2. This time they all chilled and watched the movie out in the dark! Brady had a mini meltdown and wasn't feeling too hot! He worked his tail off, that's why! Adults and kids could not get to bed soon enough!

Sunday was another busy day! Melissa got brakes this weekend too! Gabe, Brady and Melissa fixed the screen door and Brady's window! Val got a nap(Rough night and not feeling it!) and a run. While Derek got a Blu-Ray player, Gabe got a run in also, a long one too! The afternoon consisted of setting up the Blu-Ray player and cleaning the gutters plus mowing(that was Brady of course!). Val & Gabe tried to find tiles for their laundry room, but ended up at the Nugget and brought us all dinner! Sara and Cora joined us for dinner...totally yummy, no left overs at all!

Not sure we've had such a fun and productive weekend! But if we have more of these we'll most likely build a ship!
