CJ in Calif with Grandma for a week

While Mommy and Daddy came to California for a wedding in Rancho Santa Fe and then Mommy had to work in San Francisco and LA and Daddy had to go back to NY, CJ got to spend a whole week with his Grandma in Calif. And what a wonderful, memorable, spoiling, bonding time we had!

CJ enjoyed the rides and the pumpkins at Pa's Patch

Nick and Katie's Wedding Weekend

This weekend was Nick and Katie's wedding in Newport! Some of our favorite pictures are below, or see all the photos here.

Here's the adorable B&B where we stayed.

On our way to breakfast, we spotted a little photo opp in front of the Grace hotel.

After breakfast, we had time for a some arcade.

Before lunch, CJ had to run some energy out.

On the way back to the hotel, we spotted the perfect pumpkin patch.

Later that evening, the wedding location was beautiful.

It was really windy. Don't we look color-coordinated?

The boys looked good too.

And here's a pic of the happy couple.

And the other happy couple!

Pumpkin Picking

We're getting ready for Halloween! Took CJ to the pumpkin patch today. He was more interested in the slide and the toys than the pumpkins. A few pictures are below, or check out all the pictures here.

Moo!

Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Finally, the pumpkins!

Hurricane Irene

CJ (and all of us) experienced our first Hurricane this weekend. Somehow, CJ slept through it! The worst hit between 11pm and 3am Saturday night. Here are a few pictures of the aftermath at our house after.

Our basement at 1am

Our basement the next morning. Not safe to enter for a better photo since the water was above the electrical sockets and we weren't sure we turned off the right breaker switch (which also happens to be in the door on the left in this photo). The carpet is actually floating. In total, we had about 18" of water.

Grandpa came to save the day!
