Bachelorette Party

Ryan and I went out yesterday for Gabe and Michelle's Bachelor/ Bachelorette party. The girls went to wine tasting at San Antonio Winery and the boys went to Dale Brother's Brewery. We met up to have dinner together at Beer Belly Deli in the Claremont Village. We had lots of fun and we can't wait for the big day!!

Happy Birthday Ampa!

We celebrated my dad's 60th birthday yesterday at my parents house. It was an Italian themed party complete with a big homemade pasta dinner. The weather cooled down just a bit so it was a nice change. The kids swam for most of the day

Lake Day

We headed up to Lake Arrowhead on Wednesday to escape the heat and meet up with our friends Simone and Travis. We spent the day relaxing on a private beach. It was a bit windy but very hot so the breeze felt nice. The kids loved it and now that we know where this place is we will definitely be back
