Alana's 4th Birthday Party!












A lot of friends and family showed up to celebrate with us. The kids played water games in the backyard, while the adults hung out inside and by the bbq. Alana helped make lemon and strawberry cupcakes with chocolate frosting that everyone loved! She also made out like a bandit on gifts and we want to thank everyone who got her something. She was overwhelmed with all the attention everyone gave her and couldn't stop talking about how much fun she is having playing with all of her new toys.

Met Some Friends At the Ballpark.



The day of Alana's birthday, Raf and I took her on the ferry from Alameda to the Giants Ballpark in San Francisco to see the Giants defeat the Diamondbacks 6-4. Raf and I are convinced Alana is a good luck charm because every time we go to the game, the Giants win!

(pictures will be added later. Alana used a Holga, so we have to wait for the film to be developed)

Alana says I am her best friend!

. . . Right after I caught her sneaking on to the computer!

The Tornado Went Straight Through Alana's Room and then Vanished . . .



. . . After Alana's Play-date!

It took Raf, Alana, and I two hours to organize everything and get it back to where it needs to be. Regardless, Alana had a really great time and Raf and I love seeing her laugh and have fun with her friends!

Alana and Trent's Camp Out!


Alana and her uncle, Trent, had a great time camping out in our backyard last night! Nothing beats eating smores and watching 'Walle' on a Saturday night!

Wine Tasting in Murphy's!







Raf, Alana, my Nana, and I headed up to the foothills for a short day trip to Murphy's to go wine Tasting. Alana hit up a few toy shops and I found a hip clothing store named after me!
