Summer is Here...

Ah, summer... you are everybody's favorite season in my house and you're finally here (we do live in LA for more than just the awesome job opportunities)! On Memorial Day we went to our good friends Ruth and Chris's house for a backyard barbecue. So fun to run around in the sunshine, play with all the little kids, eat some great barbecue, enjoy a drink or two, and just relax with friends... how summer was meant to be! Thanks Ruth and Chris... by the way we are all envious of your ginormus, fun, and wonderfully private backyard!

Birthday Party Madness...

Last Sunday the girls and I headed down to Los Angeles for Little Ben's birthday party. It was at this really neat play space with tons of stuff for them to just go crazy on, it was even a costume party... ah the joys of having your birthday celebrated with a major holiday. My Ben doesn't like that part at all, nothing against Halloween, he just wants his birthday to be just his birthday with no theme attached... anyways. It was a fun time had by all and Lizzie even was excited to eat birthday cake, she never eats cake... I guess if it's from Porto's she'll eat it! ;)

Sorry Ben, you missed out on the scrumptious chocolate banana cake!
