Father's Day

Holy moly, it's been bananas around here! I started another part time job almost two weeks ago and am now working full time...still not sure if this is the right move for us or not, but I'll give it some time. I have to say though, trying to cram everything into the evening and weekends sucks...bad...anyway, onto the point of this post!

Today is Father's Day, yay! And our 7 year anniversary! We pretty much celebrated the former and not the latter, maybe next year we'll start celebrating anniversaries again?

Evey slept in, and by that I mean til 7:30, and Chris slept in too.

Then they woke up and we started off our day opening gifts and cards.

And putting on gifts, and this year's matching father-daughter shirts were super cute!

I'm going to do this matchy matchy as long as I'm able, bwah ha ha. We then went to breakfast at Squeeze In, which was scrumptious but kinda took forever.

You can write on the walls and furniture there!

After that we had a lunch time BBQ and invited some friends who were celebrating their first Father's Days. After that we kinda hung around.

And then went to Yogurt Beach!

I think Evey knows what this place is now, we were walking up to it and all of a sudden she started bouncing up and down and making excited noises...maybe we come here too much...

Baby girl definitely had too much yogurt,it took forever for her to fall asleep tonight!

And here's a flashback to last year's Father's Day. Happy Dad's day to Chris , my dad, and my dad-in-law: thanks for being awesome dads, I love you all!

Renaissance Faire!

We went to the Renn Faire in Tahoe yesterday! We've gone many times before, but this was the first one with the kiddo! Three out of five of the McLaughlins joined us as did some neighbors, so it was lovely spending time with all of them. I realized we hadn't been to a Renn Faire with the McLaughlins in 9 years! Before Aidan was born! So this was his first Renn Faire and the poor kid did not know what to make of some of the ridiculousness, like people talking funny, boobs hanging out, and weird clothes;) We had a great time and I can't wait to do it again next year!

Belated One Year Photos

The weekend before last we decided to go to Rancho San Rafael and take some one year photos of Evey, even though they were a bit late. We put her in a yellow tutu and plopped her in front of all kinds of pretty vegetation in the arboretum as well as the dinosaur park! Our friends met us at the park because they're 10 month old wasn't taking her afternoon nap that day either! We had a blast and had an impromptu dinner at their house afterwards.

One Year!

So these are the last of her monthly photos! No more, finito, kaput! It's kind of sad, but it means we're entering into a new phase, one in which she doesn't change significantly from month to month and is more like a regular kid. Here they are, the very last ones...

Evey's Birthday Party!

Yaaay! Evey's party was awesome, thanks to all of our friends and family who came, and also to those who couldn't make it! It was a ton of work, I don't know if we'll ever do something low key ever again (I blame my big sister, all her fault;), but it was all worth it! This post is picture heavy, just to warn you!

Chris made the ones in the flower bed spin!

Cute little birthday girl! She kept that crown on the entire time

Grandma and Grandpa came to join in on the fun!

Bubble time with the cousins!

Uncle Rusty! She was held by a lot of people, whether she wanted to be or not;)

I have to mention that Brady, our oldest nephew, was behind the camera for many of these, that's why there aren't too many photos of him. He's such a good photographer, thanks Brady!
