Happy Father's Day

We had a great afternoon at Meeks Bay with our Truckee friends!

Calvin and Kenzo enjoying a LOT of watermelon.
Eric and Tom.
Most everyone opting for some shade on this hot day!
Calvin and Travis provided some sweet dance moves for our entertainment!
It was Janet's birthday, so we had cupcakes to celebrate!

Note Kenzo's attention to the out of frame cupcakes with candles! 
All the guys: Tom, Dave, Eric, Adam & Jeff.

No, none of them offered to take a photo of all the girls. 
Happy Father's Day!!

Pretty sweet dad & son shot at our favorite spot around the lake!

Organization!

And this is tidied up.
"After!"

Ah, organization feels so good.

Just another weekend

Ah, another weekend to do weekend things! 

Kenzo loves his hard hat from Eytan & Van...it goes great with daddy's earplugs. He even says something to the effect of going to "work" when he grab the hat!
Face mess compliments of the strawberries at the Tahoe City Farmer's Market.
Tahoe Vista beach stop.
You can still make out the snow covered peaks of the west and south shore areas....
Someone was enjoying a popsicle while "helping" daddy around the yard.
Our neighbors outgrew their slide and brought it over for Kenzo - perfect! Let the plastic toy takeover begin.















So...I wanted a bookshelf-slash-toy-storage-cubby for Kenzo's room. 

The great thing about being married to a builder is that he can build things. The bad part is that he can build things instead of just ordering them on-line. 

Needless to say, we built the above mentioned piece of furniture.
Of course, ALL the tools had to be broken out and used! (Out of frame: air compressor, nail gun, and chop saw)
Funny how Eric disappeared when it had to be primed and painted...

Stay tuned for the finished product. Yeah, I know you're all on pins and needles for our furthest-from-Eames creation!

Weekend of no Weddings

With only a handful of floral events this summer, I could get used to this wedding-free weekend schedule!

Kenzo and daddy planted and watered a bunch of aspen trees around the yard...
 SO easily entertained!




 Washing the car...
My little detailer!
















And then down to Meeks Bay for a little beach action. The weather was perfect and no crowds...yet. 

Don't worry, there is a LOT of sunscreen on that little white body.
Gorgeous afternoon!
Finishing off in the shade. 

We saw lots of geese, two with their baby goslings. Kenzo kept saying "cute!"









And then, miracle of miracles....we went out to dinner sans baby! A birthday celebration for Chris at the River Ranch with Dave, Cathy, Chris, Danielle, Brad, Paul, Monica, and Monica - super fun and a great group of friends!

And it's snowing today. Welcome to June.
