flower fields

We went to the flower fields in Carlsbad; saw they were having a bluegrass festival and thought it would be a fun thing to do on a Saturday afternoon. i heart fun little family outings. I always wondered why parents brought their kids to the things like the zoo when they were too young to remember it......why?........now i know why.and i'm one of those parents. it's fun to do little family things. some day soon we'll tackle the zoo.

here we are makin some memories.

my loves

i had to get a shot with daddy in there.

i did not even realize I was taking a pic of her in the same pose as me....Aaron found the picture. how cute are the little naked butt cracks? If only fat roles looked this good on me now! hehe.

our entourage

Oh the Beck girls. We just love them. They're kinda like our family away from family. AND.......they live right down the street from us. Sweet beautiful Leanne was the first girl I handed a resume to at the salon I worked at in Poway. I actually thought she was a college girl (turns out she is married with three girls...what a smokin hot mamma). We ended up finding out that we live like TWO blocks apart(and then I found out she likes wine......so then I knew we'd be friends..HELLO wine buddy). we love us some Beck girls!


the other day they came over to meet up and walk to the park. I had Charlie ready and decided to wait outside for them because it was such a nice day. One by one they came into view......4girls, 2dogs, a shopping cart, a stroller, and 2dirty naked babydolls. LOL hillarious. I ran in to grab the camera. it was too funny not to document.


Charlotte loved the entertainment

when the girls get tired, momma has to multi task....no more shopping carts on these outings!

three babies.......2of them dirty and naked in a shopping cart. Classy baby friends you've found, Charlotte.
She LOVES watching the big girls and being a part of the shenanigans.

We will miss living so very close to our girls, because we are gonna be closing on a house in Santee either this Friday or next Monday....(blog post to follow)......but Santee isn't too far away!

We'll still see each other...I just love me some Becks.
