As Gordon pointed out in an email today, I am woefully behind on the blog thing. I would give an excuse, but it would reflect poorly on the technological condition of my dear in-laws' house, so I merely apologize.

A lot has happened. We flew to California on June 3 and Christopher met Granddad and Grandmom for the first time.




We spent a lot of time playing and having fun to gether with the grandparents. On Monday, we went to the Natural Bridges formation on the Santa Cruz coastline. There were seabirds of all types and tide pools with crabs and sea anemoenamenas (how do you spell that?) and all sorts of beauty all around. And we forgot the camera.

The kids love Granddd's back yard, especially the pond.



They also got some nifty clothes as gifts.


There was a great amusement park called bonfante gardens with cool trees. (They are sycamore trees that are repeatedly grafted together to make odd geometric shapes.)
