A Day Out!

Last Sunday we went on a drive. Along the way we stopped off at this large field behind a church. Kiely, our dog, enjoyed running and we brought out a blanket and just relaxed and captured some nice moments.

Teagan playing with my watch.

James and Teagan, still holding my watch!

Daddy must have done something pretty funny!


Trying to get a self taken family photo, I didn't mean to get so much of my armpit!

In this video, above,we caught Teagan saying "Dada" he has been saying it for a few weeks now.

This one, we were just trying to see his teeth but caught him standing on his own, with a surprise bonus at the end.

Shakira's Wedding

July 18th of this year we went to my cousin, Shakira's wedding. She is the second one of us grandchildren to get married, me being the first of course. The wedding was up in San Fransisco and was difficult to find, but after a phone call and talking to one of the servers we made it!
I wish you all the best of luck to you, Brandon and Shakira, congratulations!

The beautiful bride!

James with Teagan, he was so good during the ceremony, but he started babbling once while it was quiet and we all laughed.

Here is supposed to be a nice shot of my brother's girlfriend, Ashley and I, but my Aunt Jackie walked through as we were taking the picture, typical scattered mother of the bride! haha.

Me, all cleaned up!

My mom and her husband, Dick.

My "little" brother, Adam, and I.

My cousin, Austin, and I.

English Boys

Since was a little boy, his Grandma Kathleen, has been taking him to the British Foods Shop in Campbell, California. While we were down there this summer we were able to all go and get some lovely goodies.

Teagan and James outside the shop, appropriately in front of the huge flag.

Oh what fun, little English men pens with fuzzy hats!

Crawling Baby

Teagan has been wanting to crawl for about a month now. He has been figuring it out. While James' best friend Phil and his wife, Angie ,and their daughter, Havanna, was here he finally did it and we caught it on tape.Now he really is up and moving, pulling himself up onto his feet while holding on to the couch or our legs.

"Ok, I'm excited to try!"

"Ohhh, this is harder then I thought..."

Taking a break to smile at Mom.

A good rear end shot! But, (no pound intended) he is up on all fours!

We put out a toy as a teaser to get him going. Havanna is tempted to get the toy herself, but Angie doesn't let her.
