Today was the first day of school. Here are our obligatory pictures! Second grade and fourth grade here we come.
Category: Autumn
We went to California for a couple weeks this summer. It was supposed to be a quick weekend Mommy only trip, but those plans changed.
Autumn got handcuffs on our camping trip with Alicia and Matt.
Playing Farkle with handcuffs!
Yummy treats.
We headed up to see Mommy’s friend, Mary Beth. Her pool is awesome!
The adult girls went out to dinner. Did you eat dinner or only dessert?
We roasted marshmallows and had smores!
Allie ran the SF Marathon, so we went to cheer her on. We stood at the finish line while Mommy watched her on the app. The app said she wasn’t done, but ZOOM, she went running by. That’s why there aren’t any pictures of her finishing!
She made it!
Autumn decided to relive her younger days and play with all the toys at Grandma’s.
We went out to dinner for Allie’s birthday. We gave her a crown, a pen, and a BIG ring.
Allie wanted ice cream sundae’s instead of cake.
One day after Autumn finished gymnastics camp we went to Capitola for some beach time. This beach is definately not Hawaii! Brrrrrr.
Dinner was at Zelda’s. Grandpa and Mommy got lobster. Autumn was freaking out because Grandpa’s lobster was looking at her!
Mommy signed Autumn up for gymnastics camp while we were there. She went to the place Mommy used to work.
One day we met Mommy’s friend and her kids and we painted and had yummy yogurt.
The real reason for the trip to CA was Mommy had tickets to see Hamilton with Allie. They said it was amazing!
Diane made german pancakes-we were with daddy so we didn’t get any.
Look at those yummy strawberries from the Campbell Farmer’s Market
S’mores pancakes-can’t got wrong there!
Mom promised us cake pops-Ahoy Matey!
Today we headed to Alcatraz. Grandma, Grandpa, Diane, Allie, Kevin, Autumn and I have never been there. We’ve been wanting to go there since last summer when we saw it going out to take Jerry’s ashes out to sea. Here’s our boat.
On the way out-Kevin’s legs were the only ones to reach the seats.
Whoa, Grandma, feel those waves?
Super sunny day. We could see Coit tower and the Golden Gate bridge.
Autumn and I were so excited to see sea gulls! We asked Mommy to take a picture.

The walk to Pier 39 for lunch.
Photo bombed by Kevin.
We stopped at Allie’s work to visit her friends. They took us trick or treating in the Spring to get treats around the office! Then we went to CREAM to have a treat. I got brownie with strawberry ice cream and mini gummy bears. Autumn got a brownie with chocolate ice cream and chocolate sprinkles.
Mom got oatmeal cookies with churro ice cream.
Messy faces!
