Fourth of July 2007






It was very hot this year! The new ballpark (Field of Dreams) across the freeway from our home was having a huge event all day. We wanted to go, but we're glad we didn't! It was just too hot to take Katarina out. But, we did enjoy our quiet day at home and Katarina (as you can see from the pictures above) was able to cool off in her little pool for a little bit. Since the fireworks were so close, we were able to see them from our street (it was difficult finding the right spot between all the two story houses). This was the first year Katarina stayed up that late and watched the fireworks show with us. She watched Daddy set off the ones he and her Nino bought too. Daddy had a little too much fun with that!

Seascape Family Vacation!

Image
We had the best time at the Seascape resort! Katarina had a blast at the pool and beach. It was nice not having to worry about where to be at certain times. We just did whatever we wanted and had a relaxing time. :) Jeff was able to go golfing and Dina did a 6 mile Wharf to Wharf run during the trip. It trailed from the Santa Cruz beach board walk to Capitola! Her time was 1:36 (so she didn't exactly RUN the entire time). We are now home safe and sound and back to reality! This is one place we look forward to returning to!

Photo shoot!

Image
Dina's former co-worker had recently asked if she could do a photo shoot of Katarina. She wanted to try out a new lens her husband bought her. So, of course, Mommy said yes since she LOVES pictures so much. There were too many cute ones to even post. The pictures just turned out adorable. Just letting Katarina play in the front yard for a bit allowed for great photos! It was so much fun (and nice to catch up with a friend for "adult" conversation).

Welcome Home Party for David

Image
Well, it has been awhile since a posting has been done about our family. Sunday was David's Welcome Home party. We had a full house since it was so cold outside we couldn't use the backyard. David was spoiled with many cute clothes and toys. Many brought presents even for Katarina so she wouldn't feel left out (which is appreciated, but not necessary). There was a lot of food to go around and we have leftovers galore! It was a wonderful day that introduced our son to the everyone! After everyone left, it was time to clean up. Thankfully there was a lot done by the extended family before they started leaving, so it really wasn't too bad. Dina did 3 loads of laundry after the party just from the new clothes the kids received! LOL! Getting toys out of the new packaging with the twist ties are a PAIN!!! On another note, this morning Dina took the kids downstairs to feed them breakfast. After David ate, Dina changed him out of his pajamas into a new outfit. He
