Our Sweet Girl

Sara's new Minnie Mouse dress. Sara still loves to eat and gets very animated while doing it.

She started standing without holding onto anything at 11 months old - still haven't been able to get a picture of it.

Ventura Vacation

Bill and Sara enjoying Ventura Beach - Sara's first time in the ocean (or at least her feet).

Sara had fun playing with cousins Melody and Emma Joy
Many thanks to Mom & Gunnar for making this such a great vacation.

Tea Parties & Garden Decor

I found this cute tea table and chairs at a great price on Craig's List that will look perfect in Sara's room. I know she is still a bit small for the tea party thing but it was too cute to pass up. She seems to like it.

My new favorite garden decoration. I have been lookimg at these bird houses for years on the internet and finally bought one. It is very large and looks so pretty in the backyard.

Palm Desert July 09

We spent 4 days in Palm Desert on a timeshare sales promo at the end of July. It was very hot at 114 degrees and a low of 85 degrees in the middle of the night. We stayed cool playing in the pool most of the day.

Sara loved watching the geese each morning from the balcony.

Daddy and Sara enjoying the sunset together.

Hard to believe she is already 10 months old.

Sara loved the baby pool we used on the balcony - the best way to keep cool between her naps.

Happy 4th of July
