Random August Photos


So, Lollipop had a crazy allergic reaction where her cheeks swelled up and she broke out in hives. 


Doesn't she look funny?


I think she ate a bee maybe?! 


She was covered in hives. The vet had us give her Benadryl which took care of it but boy was it freaky to come home and see your dog with cheeks like that and bumps all over her!


Our beach bums!


We've spent a lot of time at the beach this summer with the kids boogie boarding. 








Lollipop always meets friends at the beach.


Genetics have blessed our daughter with an interesting smile. Yep, we've already had our first orthodontist appointment.


Pool party with our flamenco friends.



6 going on 16.


Beach run with Lollipop.


Lollipop is almost eight and the beach runs are now more like beach walks. :(


Love this sweet dog!


Sliding! 


Lovely dinner with my favorite ladies.

Thank you Sarah and Mike! 



Looking cute after a haircut.



Love his smile ;)


This one too.

Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day weekend kicked off with a Back to School Happy Hour at our house. 


Sofia and her Santa Barbara Jr. High School friends came over and the babysitter wheels began to turn for all the parents. 




Happy Hour turned into a Sleepover!







Saturday beach day!















A sign of a good day when they pass out well before bedtime on the couch. 


Sunday night date night for us! We LOVE the wine bar within the Public Market. It has become the first stop on all our dates and then we walk to one of the nearby restaurants downtown.




Oh and remember those Santa Barbara Jr. High Students? Yep, we decided it was time to let Sofia babysit for real. She actually knows our kids better than any sitter plus her parents are right next store ;) 


On actual Labor Day, the Stones hosted a lovely backyard bbq


Chris barbecued beer can chicken




Dance party with all the kids!


Someone was having a little too much fun ;)












All eyes on Adam's interesting conversation.


Who knows what he was talking about? 


Beauties!


Poor Chris. His beer can chicken didn't quite cook properly….


Thank you Stone Family! We had a fabulous time (raw chicken and all)! ;)
