Happy 4th Birthday Jacob!

Yesterday, August 19th, we celebrated Jake's 4th birthday. Well, actually, we've been celebrating it for about a week now, but oh well. He's a big kid now. We took him to his favorite fancy restaurant: Chuck E Cheese. He got a new bike for his birthday with training wheels and a helmet. Unfortunately he's only ridden it once or twice because he got it the day before we left for Utah. But we'll be home soon. We love him so much and love having him in our family!

And here's Jake now.

Family Visit...and Pismo Beach (again)

My parents and brother, Stephen, and sister, Emily (who had been staying with us for the past month) came to visit the first weekend in August. We, of course, took them to the beach! Yup, Pismo Beach again. It was a great time though (regardless of the sunburns!). We're always glad to have family and friends (HINT Tara) come and stay with us. You're always welcome in sunny California!This is a cute picture of Logan burying Stephen in the sand.

This is the sandcastle that my Dad and Jake built.
