ummm....how cute is this?

What a difference a couple weeks make...

Our garden is our of control! The tall stalk like thing to the left is cilantro! Who new cilantro could grow so tall? The big leaves are squash. Our peppers and basil died but you can see the tomatoes are going strong! 


See the before here.


Isn't Abby the cutest guard dog ever?

Julia...

I got about 24 hours with The Wades last week. Minus my severe allergy attack it was a fanastic time. We went out and took pictures and Julia let me ask her anything I wanted. I learned a ton of basic stuff about my camera and a ton of post production tricks I cant wait to use. Then we went to an amazing dinner with my parents. Thanks a ton to Julia and Jona for hosting me. You have perfect guest quarters. I loved Maggie (even though she makes my want to cry) and I loved being in your house. Can't wait to see you in June! xoxo

Denver!

Happy Birthday Cheer (and Liz)!

Kate planned a fun day in SF for Cheer and I. We started with Mani/Pedis, lunch at our favorite meeting place (Cheesecake factory) and a little shopping. I love Birthday celebrations that start 3 weeks in advance and last days after the actual day!

The Sunset...

Brad, Abby and I went out to Half Moon Bay last week to shoot the sunset for my Photography class. I was so nervous I was going to miss but I got some great shots for my class and we stayed and had a yummy dinner overlooking the ocean. It was such a great afternoon. Thanks to Julia for the last minute tips. xoxo
