Fall 2009


I love the fall in southern california! the weather is perfect! we have been pretty busy the last few months. Brian toured with his friends' band, and Navy and i spent a month visiting family. first we went to salt lake, then to idaho, then portland. unfortunately i don't have any pictures cuz brian had our camera with him. i do however have lot's of pictures of what we have been up to since coming home. so here they are:
A beautiful fall evening at the lighthouse.
This is the first day we saw brian again after his tour and our trips. We met up with him in santa barbara at his friend tyler's wedding. Navy was so happy to have her dad again!
A family picture at the wedding.
Afternoon at the beach! it is october and we are at the beach!! life couldn't get better!
making "chocolate sand soup".
Beach babe

brian and i had a night off (thanks sal and shane) and bri took me to a concert in LA. it was so fun! we saw Mika and he was awesome.


date night!

Our tinkerbell. so there will be quite a few tinkerbell pictures. sorry. i just thought she was sooo cute!
Scary witch face

navy won cutest costume award at a church party. There were three wards worth of kids there.
Watching the kids hit a pinata.
She decided she wanted to be Belle for trick or treating.
Then we went to a street party downtown. As we were leaving a grabbed some of navy's crayola markers and painted brian and i up.
Navy loved the other princesses.

Life is good and we are looking forward to the holidays' and a time to give thanks. speaking of giving thanks, sally has started a thing called mom's morning off where she babysits kid's that she knows for super cheap, one day a week. it is WONDERFUL! navy loves it and i love it. thanks sal. we love you!

#1 - Great job on posting a bit about you and not just Navy. (Still have to work on a post dedicated solely to you).
#2 - Forgot to ask, what was Navy's initial reaction to seeing her daddy again with short hair?
#3 - You're totally cross-eyed in that pic of you in the glasses at the Mika concert. Haha.
