August - Tour de California

Instead of blogging, I spent the month of August on vacation in California.  In one month, I managed to squeeze a lot in!  I didn't spend more than 3 nights in a row at any one place and it was wonderful.  I spent at least a night in each of the following places: Pasadena, Huntington Beach, Seal Beach, Piedmont, Yosemite, Atherton, San Francisco, Cayucos, Santa Barbara, and Pismo Beach.  I'm a little tired just writing that list, but I wish I could do it all over again!  I got to attend two baby showers for my sister-in-law, go to a beautiful wedding in Yosemite for two of our dear friends, visit loads of friends, help plan (sort of) an engagement for one of my besties, see my other sister-in-law's new apartment in the big city (of SF), do a girls' weekend at the beach, celebrate a belated birthday with my Dad and Grandma, and go to the Charles Family reunion.  I had the best time and am so grateful for all of my family and friends.  It is sad being so far away, but I am so happy for the opportunity I had to hang out in California for so long.  And without further ado, here is the picture tour: 

Miss Rebecca Lynn is soon to be a Mrs!  So excited for
her & Jules!  XOXO
Charles cousins (at Angela's first baby shower) - sorry for cutting
you off Dawn, Daniel & Goose
Angela's second baby shower - a loverly tea
I couldn't resist!  Tucker is by far the cutest naked piano
player I have ever seen.  And, no, thankfully I haven't seen any others.
Hottest groomsman!
We loved being in Yosemite and saw a huge deer right by
our cabin - so awesome 


Sadly, the only pictures I have from my visit with Lindsay are of her
classroom, but I had so much fun helping her out & seeing her
amazing creativity.  Love you, Ms. Balzer!



Again, I don't have any pictures actually of Maggie from my visit in SF - I just have this one 
picture of a delicious cookie milkshake that I got after we saw Planes together.  

Girls weekend (plus three of the cutest little boys) in Cayucos! 
No birthday is complete without an ice cream cake
Love you, Sarah!  
I love these faces.  Wish we were all snuggling right now!
Me & Pops
Cousins! 
Little Naomi is too precious
Charles Family Reunion 2013 - I love my family!

Lunch date at McDonald's.  I love these boys & their momma!
Also, on a last note, my niece is due in just about two weeks and I could not be more excited!!  Drew and I are so excited to meet her and be an aunt & uncle.  We love you, Ainsley Grace!
