April pics

What we've been up to...

We attempted to watch the astronauts land in the ocean. We didn't see anything but it was a beautiful night! 



Josh and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary in Laguna Beach at the most incredible hotel! We ate, drank, hiked, played tennis, and lay by the pool - it was glorious. 







Thank you, Grandma, for holding down the fort! 



Owen had another performance at school - Selena - he sang it every day for a month! Haha



Ryan and his buddies at school 


Emmy played in the powder puff football game at school. She got an interception! 


Owen's baseball team went to a Padres game 


Emmy had a killer lacrosse season. This girl is badass and was the only junior to get an award at the end-of-year ceremony.








Owen pitched a lights-out game! The kid was pulled in to pitch with 2 kids on base, no out, and let up no runs. Then followed up with another no-hit inning to win the game :) He also happens to be the youngest and smallest on the team! The team hired a professional photographer for the game. The pics are so good! 










I had the best Mother's Day being spoiled and spending time with my incredible kids
