Relaxing Wknd and a Beautiful Wedding!

I Have great kids!! I know that you are probably thinking that yours are pretty great, but mine are amazing!!! Yours too? Ok fine, but this is my place to brag :) The drive to Ca. and back went so well! We didn't really have a schedule so there was no hurry either way which was nice for a change. It usually feels like we are rushing through everything to get to what is happening next, to slow down and go at whatever pace we pleased, for once, was great. We let Soph nap when she needed and Jackson swim when he wanted. Jackson got dirty playing in the hot tub and sand at the Kirchhausen's house and at krizi's wedding and I didn't say a thing to him about it (it was hard for me). We ate whatever we pleased, whenever we pleased, paying no attention to a "regular food schedule." Walked to dinner in the rain one night and saw the slight (hour and a half) wedding delay as a photo op. We didn't have a care in the world... we pretended we didn't anyway:)
Everything on the big day was fantastical! It could not have been more perfect and fitting to Krizia. The relaxed feel of the whole occasion was just right for her, she was beautiful and absolutely on a cloud! Houman looked pretty happy as well;) The last minute ceremony was fitting, her dress had to have been made just for her, the kids were adorable (tears and all) and the cupcakes were delicious! The night was topped off with a campfire and s'mores on the beach, such a good idea! Everything, including our 9th grade talent show act, was perfect. Just Perfect!! And they rode off on their tandem bike and lived happily ever, ever after :)

I feel silly posting three pictures of just us but this is my tribute to my best friend:) I love her and she is the greatest! Which makes me the luckiest to have her as my best friend! I am so happy for her and hope for all the happiness in the world for her and her new husband. She deserves it. I can't wait to see her again...maybe in Australia (fingers crossed). And hope that she moves back soon! I love you Krizia!!

There Goes The Neighborhood

Looking for some "good guys" to harass?
Plotting their next crime?

Maybe just KILLIN' time?

I can't be quite sure what was going through their funny little minds but I think it was something pretty cool!
They invaded my house with as many weapons as they could round up, even had Sophie hostage at one point,
but Soph and I didn't mind one bit. It was the funniest thing I saw all day and Soph just sat and watched in amazement.
