A warm breeze, grass waving gently and a big comfy chair
*Sigh* Hello Gorgeous.
Does this not make you want to just sink into that chair in the tall grass? I'm telling you, this sitting just represents August to me.
If I could wrap up August in one image and put a bow on it, this would be it.
If I were Italian I would go *muah* Perfecto!!
But alas, I am not Italian. So a simple smile and a sigh will have to do for now....
Oh sweet Kady. Sweet Kady who totally trusted us and our crazy ideas. As soon as she showed us the dress I knew exactly what we would do with it.
We really did have such a great time with Kady. Thank you again for a really fun afternoon. :)
So any of you that know us very well at all know that we have a brother/son Jacob who is a Senior this year!
*gasp*
We know. We both just got gray hair. Just wait until you see his pictures. You'll have gray hair too!
So normally I get to tell you how much I have enjoyed getting to know our seniors and find out so many great things about them. Well, being Jacob's big sister I know him pretty well. I have been so blessed to be back in the area and see him through most of his high school experience. I can honestly say he is the best young man I know. He has grown into someone I am proud to be not only related to, but also friends with. He is trustworthy, faithful, hilarious, and of course handsome! Looking through his pictures I am reminded of when he was little and how much I used to torture him and of course he just put up with it. Now he's all grown up and turned into an amazing person, despite our relentless picking.
We really are proud of you Jacob and are so proud of who you are and who you will become.
Love Amanda and Mama
(And yes, I know he'll probably kill me for getting all mushy, but it's ok, I'm still older than him :P)
We are just *LOVING* our 2011 Seniors!!
(in a sing song voice)
Seriously. Loving. This.
And how can you not love this?!
Jessie was so much fun! But we knew with all that personality boxed into that itty bitty body she would be a blast! And she did not disappoint! She had so many different looks, so many different sides, and so many great ideas!
Thanks Jessie (and Karri!) for a fun filled afternoon!! :)
Hope you enjoy your sneak peak and can't wait for you to see the rest!
What makes a "day-at-the-office"* a really great day?
A day that involves donuts, smoothies, frozen yogurt, hot dogs and lots of great company. :)
And yes. Technically we were still "working"
And you know what? Today they are having a HUGE celebration from 10-6!
So go out and enjoy some sunshine along with your hot dog and a bounce house!
*We're totally kidding. We don't have those around here.
Some of our closest friends, Mike and Lisa Duarte own and operate their small family winery,
Duarte Family Vineyards. Their amazing wines, Popie Wines, are now being poured in Auburn at an amazing location,
Villa Fiorente, along with three other wineries. This breathtaking location offers a unique experience with four very different wineries.
They are having a special sneak peek weekend this Saturday and Sunday. They will be serving mini lamb kabobs made with
Sinclair Family Farm's grass fed lamb, herb roasted red potatoes, and of course lots of great wines to sample! For ONLY $5!
The Villa is located at 10555 Harris Road in Auburn California
And yes, you will find us there this weekend. :)
(These pictures are from harvest this past fall. We haven't had a chance to take pictures at the Villa yet, but stay tuned to see some soon!)
