Milestones and Holidays

We celebrated three occasions in a row last weekend - June 20 marked our one year mark in California, June 21 was Father's Day and June 22 was my 29th birthday.

Here are a couple shots of Josh from this time last year, shortly after we moved here, and a few from this past month. Wow - what a difference one year makes!!

Then...





Now...









And to top it off - Josh just got his first molar!

For Father's Day, Mike joined Dad and the neighbor Ken for a round of golf at Rancho Canada (a's pronounced like in father, not the country) in Carmel. It was a beautiful day and everyone had a good time. After golf, we had a cook-out at Ken's with some yummy burgers on the grill.





Since our stay at the B&B was also part celebration for my birthday, the big day was spent low-key, hanging with family. Dad took Josh and I out to lunch at a local place and then we had a family dinner at their place where Dad went all out and made a dinner that you just can't find locally - chicken fried steak - YUM! With a Coldstone Creamery Oreo ice cream cake to top it all off, it was a definitely a great birthday. I don't really know how I feel about being 29... it's a mix of emotions considering it's the last "20-something" birthday I'll have, but I guess I can find solace in that it's the last number that I'll actually have to remember, since I'm going to be "29" forever.
