Holiday Weekend Fun

We have had the most fun holiday weekend so far.

On Saturday, we went to visit the Peier family for brunch. Here is mom, Lisa, with sweet new baby Quincy and 18-month-old Atticus.

We had a delicious brunch with the Peiers and another family who also has two kids the same age as ours. We got to relax in the shade for a few minutes while the big kids played.


Lisa's husband squeezed fresh orange juice from the trees in their yard for our mimosas. How Californian is that?

Peter and the boys splashed in the pool...

...And at the water table.

Clara and I checked out the orange trees in the backyard.

I love this picture of the three moms with the three babies.


Today, we packed up and headed to the Annenberg Beach House in Santa Monica. It was 80 degrees when we left West Hollywood, but once we got to the beach it was only 65 and overcast. Still... there was nothing that was going to keep Peter away from this cool splash pad. Do you see us on the opposite side of the water?

"1, 2, 3, go, go GO!"

Clara even got in the beach spirit and put on her cute bathing suit for a few minutes. (Less than 5.)

After the splash pad, we walked down to the beach.

Peter played in the sand for about 30 seconds until he realized there was water a few feet away.

I'm not really sure what Clara thought of the beach. She probably would rather have been at home, but she was a good sport.

Peter and his dad 'plashing in the water...

... And reluctantly returning to our towels.

My three favorites on the beach. Happy 4th of July!
