laguna beach.

This beach is honestly breathtaking. We couldn't believe how pretty it was. And the water is a completely different color here. Amazing.








she's too cute to not take pictures of.

these last pics are of our friend Stewart. I could have collaged them all but they are just too good, I had to show them in full view!









laguna beach is calling my name.

May EAT: top it off

May seemed to really fly by and I was in a pinch to squeeze in EAT before the month was over. So we went with quick and easy SUNDAES!

This is probably the worst picture taking I've ever done. I only managed to get pics of some toppings.

But when there is a cute baby to hold, friends to talk to and games to play, my priorities go elsewhere. I'll try harder this month.

i'm a dentist too

russell had to get some work done @ school one saturday, so i decided to tag along.
all work and no play is boring, so I got to have some fun too.
