M & M & M

Sam and Jess came up North with the kiddies for another quick visit. Needless to say, the three M's enjoyed themselves immensely.

Maddie, Maya, and Max...part of an elite club.

If you are cool enough (and if your name starts with M), you might be allowed to join.

Membership benefits include making delicious coffee for the grown-ups, (Maya teaches Maddie based on her months of experience).

Big Kids

Our Mother's Group doesn't get together as often as we used to, but Sarah was nice enough to host us for a fun St. Patrick's themed get-together. Here's the latest group shot of the kiddies who are all getting so big.

Gabriel, Charlotte, Sadie, Maya, Olen and younger brother, Jonathan.

Now with funny faces.

So glad we are all still friends.

Cable Car!

After spending most of her early life in San Francisco, we realized that Maya had never been on the true San Francisco cable cars. So, after we said a sad goodbye to Lulu, we met up with Nick, Laura, and her parents for a thrilling day of public transportation and Fisherman's wharf.

On the cable car!

One...

...two...

...three.

Now for a ride on the carousel.

Yay San Francisco!

Lulu Visits

Lulu made a quick trip to San Francisco to visit Maya. She was delighted. We had a great time.

Lulu came with us to the Discovery Museum where we enjoyed various activities including ringing the bell...

...and climbing trees.

We had our share of rain during her visit, but Maya didn't mind.

Momma, Lulu, Maya, and Pete the cat (a gift from Lulu).

Stories before bed.

We love Lulu!
