------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allie had her pictures done at Sears and she was chosen as the cutest kid in her age group that month, so she's on display at the studio. They weren't her best shots either, she was too in to all the props they had around the room that she hardly stood still enough to get a single picture. But, they still turned out cute enough. Yes, I'm a proud mommy. (Sorry you can't see for yourself. I can't post them here).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Memorial Day weekend, we flew out to Phoenix to visit Mom & Dad F. Steve, Cassie, and the boys were there too so we got to spend some time with them also. We got to meet baby Luke for the first time. He's just as cute as the others boys.
We had a great time. We went swimming a few times, went to the zoo, and just hung out and relaxed. Allie had such a great time swimming and playing with her grandma, papa, and all her cousins. We often don't get to see our oldest niece much when we're there but since she was out of school, we were able to spend a lot of time with her. JP also had a lot of time off work, which is rare, so we were able to see the whole family a lot more than we normally do on a short visit.
Allie had her first K.rispy K.reme donut while we were there. Tim asked her if she liked it and as she savored every bite, she said, "I like donut, WOW!" She also had her first brain-freeze. She was sipping on a slushie when she said, "ahhhh, too much!" We looked back and she was holding her hands up to her forehead. She had some other great sayings on that trip but those are for another time as this post is ridiculously long.

This past weekend, we went down to SM for my cousin's wedding. It was a really short trip so we didn't get much in, but we were able to take Allie to the beach for a few minutes. She loved it! She loved running away from the waves (tide was strong and water cold). She wanted to do it over and over. When we told her it was time to go she said, "No, I stay at beach".

The wedding was outside at a beautiful country club. In typical Central Coast fashion, it was foggy and windy so it was quite cold out. But, it was beautiful. We then had appetizers out in a courtyard and then came in for a full sit-down dinner. But, like an idiot I left my camera in our car and rode with someone else to the wedding. Oops, no pics.
