Below is a photo recap of our recent activities. The first event to highlight is a visit with some of our family from Rhode Island. To get you in the mood, please listen closely to the video below and note the out-of-this-world East Coast accent that I have known and loved since childhood, and miss dearly being in California:

| The woman with the voice and "Baby Helen" |

| Auntie Mare lovin' life on the San Diego Bay |
 |
| My parents love to sail...I love to sail. I do not, however, like sharing the water with ginormous boats. |
I'll add some more pictures when I get them from my other family members - these were just mine taken from my little ole iPhone. Hey, it does the job, right?!
Here are some more recent shots...
 |
| Jeff and Avery filling the bucket with rocks, leaves and sand. We have a little nature lover on our hands...and Avery enjoys it too. |
 |
| Avery loves inclines. Avery loves nature. Avery loves going up and down the trail until we have blisters. |
 |
| My turn; and hike #19,876 |
 |
| Charging through the trail with the gusto of an avid adventurer... |

A big shout out to Uncle Fred who once again has taken wonderful pictures to capture the special day! We love you! And, another shout out to Cousin Jenna and Cousin Ryan as they start their next journey in New York, New York. We're going to miss you so much!!
