Em and Luke came up for some rest and relaxation. We headed to Butterfly Beach; sand, waves, Ivy eating kelp. We love Aunty Em and Uncle Luke.







As always, we love being with our dear friends Dana and Gabe. We spent a great afternoon together, eating sandwiches at Mesa Lane beach, walking in the water and being together. Dana and Gabe just celebrated 9 years of marriage. Hooray!







Hanging out with our two most favorite red-heads: Claire and Dana. 

We went with our friend Luisa to the Animal Shelter to help her pick out a kitty. This little tabby was so cute and full of energy, but after playing with him for a while, we realized he just wasn't the one. But Ivy sure had a blast. Lu ended up adopting a little back kitty and named him Henri. 



One of our favorite things to do with some of our favorite people: wine tasting with Doug and Linda Smith. We spent a great afternoon at Stolpman winery, then enjoyed homemade pizza straight out of the homemade pizza OVEN. I mean, COME ON! This is good stuff people.






This summer our friends Dana and Gabe decided instead of taking a vacation, they would rent a place down in Ventura. They spent the summer there, surfing, reading, relaxing and walking on the beach. We went down to join them under our umbrella.

At the zoo with Leslie and Molly, Annie and Caleb. Ivy with foot propped up as usual.
