We spent our second day in California with David's family (mostly). We met up with a few of his siblings/spouses and his mom and her two sisters for lunch at the Sonoma Chicken Coop in Campbell, CA. We enjoyed a delicious lunch and were able to hangout and chat for awhile. After lunch David and I shopped around Campbell for a bit before heading over to Santana Row - a gorgeous outdoor shopping venue with some super swanky and super high-end stores that we couldn't even afford to step foot into. We had a lot of fun just walking around together, talking, and enjoying the beautiful SUNSHINE. I even managed to get some yummy froyo at Pinkberry before heading to his aunt and uncle's house for dinner that evening.

My face rarely makes an appearance on this blog since I'm usually behind the camera -- so I'm taking this opportunity to say "Hi!". This shot was taken with my point and shoot while at Santana Row.

Wow -- this is WAY overdue. Sorry if you've been diligently checking the blog only to find my feet for the last month and a half!! Let's see if I can fix that here : ) I'm still going {pretty} strong with my picture-a-day project...just not so good and editing and posting them in a timely manner. I'm going to try to get better at that.

After an early flight out of CLE we landed at SFO around noon. We picked up our rental car and headed north...to Sausalito. We met up with Chris & Tessa for a delicious lunch over the bay. If you've never had the opportunity to visit San Francisco (or Sausalito)...you need to go. Sausalito is a cute little coastal town that reminds me of Italy. Not that I've ever been or anything...but it's what I imagine it would be like there!

I'm freshly pedicured and ready for my trip out west -- soooooo excited for a much needed break!

Just what you've always wanted...an up close picture of my feet...

I've had some of the busiest weeks at work and with photography lately that this was another one of those "Oh no, I need a picture today" days. So, I leave you with the forsythia wreath. I still love it!

I'm pretty sure it's literally been raining for a month straight here. Seriously, no exaggeration. It's getting to be a bit ridiculous actually. Because it's been unusually rainy and not-so-sunny we've anxiously been waiting for our tulips to bloom. They are SO close...but they're just not popping. We leave for California on Thursday and we're really hoping they bloom before then.

David snapped this picture on our way out the door for church this morning. So, technically I didn't take it...but close enough ; )

I captured Lucas as a newborn back in February and I can't believe he's already three months old. He is one of my Milestones clients which means that I'll get to watch him grow through three more photo sessions over the course of his first year. I really like this family and am excited to continue to work with them and get to know them!

Three months old is such a fun age to shoot. They're typically super smiley and happy, love to have their hands in their mouths, and aren't quite afraid of strangers yet. Lucas was very serious today and this picture just about sums him up right now...
