July

 

Halloweenie bo beanie turned 2!!

4th of July with Michael Joe’s side.
All kinds of illegal high-in-the-sky fireworks around the neighborhood:)

 

 

Lunch & swimming with Grammy ;)

We all decided his name should be Sheldon. 

My cute kitty comforting me after the near accident happened on the way home from Disneyland.  

He had NEVER done this & on this afternoon he did it twice. He knew. 

Gwinna Jovee is 9!  

We celebrated the day before because we travelled to the family reunion in Tahoe on her actual.  

We ate all kinds of junk food and she got many highlighters and fun new clothes & junk from everyone. 

REUNION 2021 

Happened the weekend after we went to Disneyland so we went into it pretty exhausted already.  

Lil did the best one!

Candy guessing jars & a fun Gwinna unicorn piñata! 

Sia was so excited to win with EXACTLY the right guess for the gummy worm jar!

  

Making the chunky chalk! 

Talent show time.  ‘Twas so much fun getting to hang out with Tanner and Dean & their parents too:) hehe.  I brought a few videos to show of our family creations (Noelle art & my crochet, Sia setups) and Gwinna read some stories! So brave.  Also, Sia DANCED with the most awesome serious face! So good.  
Lil showcased her family talents through pictures & Eli added some in the end as well:) 
Mom & Dad showed off some tai chi moves they’ve been working on. So nice & peaceful, even to watch.  

 

Our babies at the beach without their lame parents who prefer to be inside;) hahaha.  

Pictures of overrated food at the Manzanita restaurant at the Ritz hotel.  Not great.  We tried to make up for it eating around Truckee the next day…fish tacos, pie, our normal Thai order of Tom kha gai & spring rolls (at who knows where! I asked Michael to look at the name of it when we left but we both forgot!), specialty chocolate & of course later with the whole family Drunken Monkey sushi.  
Me & Michael had some long, lovely alone time eating & getting massaged…expect the massages almost killed us! I literally had a bruise & am honestly slightly traumatized by it.  Not excited to get another one anytime soon.  

This deep bathtub helped! :)

COUSINS.  Our girls are outnumbered! 

The beds were cozy. . . 

And the views were lovely

 

Many popsicles & a lot of swimming time at Grandma & Grandpa’s this summer😄

 

Annual window shopping collage 😝

Oh and I also need to note here that Michael had a video made for me from Karine & Paul from 90 day Fiance about how my baths are too long and of course he had Paul run at the end of it & its hilarious & perfect and I appreciate both of them more now.
