Wonderful weekend

We had a busy weekend jam packed with lots of fun activities.

Friday night we went to dinner at some friends house and Lucca got to play with four of his buddies. They have a great yard and the kids had so much fun running around.

Sat. we went to the Mt. Vernon street fair. The fair itself could be missed, but we were lucky enough to have caught the "Prozac Mountain" band. I've never seen Lucca have so much fun. He got to strum the guitar and just stared up at the musicians, clapped at the crowd and danced for an hour. It was pure bliss to watch.

Here he is dancing to the music.

Lucca fell in love with this woman. We didn't know her, but he kept running over to her and giving her a big bear hug. Then he just climbed up on her lap and they watched the show together.

Sunday I had brunch with most of the bookclub gals. These ladies are my Seattle family. I love them all and we always have such a great time together. I'm so blessed to be a part of such an amazing community of women.

Needless to say, I'm wiped today. Lucca and I are on the couch, watching cartoons, eating leftover pizza for breakfast because I was too busy playing to go to the grocery store.

Happy Monday.

Camera Bag

I've had my eye on some camera bags lately. I really want a bag that can hold my camera, lens and Lucca stuff all in one bag. Right now I'm lugging around both a diaper and a camera bag which is a lot of stuff.

Here are my fav's -- let me know which one is your fav.

The first one is Epiphanie.

Second is Kelly Moore

Third is an Etsy find.

Oh sunny days...

Yesterday was such a gorgeous day! I was amazed how invigorated I felt first thing in the am. Apparently there really is something to that Seasonal Affective disorder! Lucca and I had a great day going to preschool, a long walk and then the perfect picnic with Papa. We took fish tacos and a bottle of wine and headed down to the water for some fun in the sun. I think it's our new way to dine. So much more relaxing to let Lucca run around and throw rocks in the water while Shan and I actually had a conversation. It was the perfect night and made me so excited for summer. Bring it on.

Let's go fly a kite

Shan got a kite for Father's day last year and we hadn't taken it out yet for a test run. Last weekend was our chance - we had blue skies, sun, wind and most importantly...motivation. You'll have to look close in that first picture because we got the kite out 500 feet over the ocean. Pretty cool.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter! These pics make me so happy. Lucca looked SO cute in his little man outfit. I couldn't get over it. The easter bunny came to our house this afternoon and Lucca loved finding all of his treasures. He also left a cute basket with a piggy bank and some coin filled eggs. Despite Papa having the flu, and mama having too many margaritas the night before we managed buck up for Lucca and had a great day.
