Happy Birthday, Pops!

Uploading photos has been slowing down my blogging lately. Life has been full, we have both been working more which has been a little hectic but we are grateful for our jobs.

Dad's birthday was earlier this month. We asked him to host as we did last year but of course we brought all the fixings!

My cute and silly dad has a bunch of rabbits in his yard. He gets older produce from the store and feeds them. It is pretty ridiculous! He sent us photos on Easter of the bunny making it's appearance.

They are his pets. Here he's showing the kids the basking rabbits in his yard.

We had so much fun celebrating a FUN, WITTY, HANDSOME, LOVING, and THOUGHTFUL Dad. What a fun Papa!

T ball playing Kid


A few months ago I was chatting with my hairdresser/friend about our sons doing t-ball. We were both kinda on the fence. But we decided to do it and also request being on each other's team. She happened to know a few other kiddo's on the team which was great. We didn't but have really enjoyed getting to meet other people with kids the same age. I even knew one of the moms from my RD internship; she was one of my professors!

The school where practice and games are has a play yard nearby. Ara loves this.

Owen's first game was missed due to us being in Monterey. So we were jazzed for his real first game. He may or may not have had about 18 people there cheering him on. 

Ara and Zo had a ball at the park as well.


Mama J was there
Owen started out as catcher, which was funny as they don't practice being catcher at practice! He wouldn't move or bend his body very well, it was pretty funny!


He loved having an audience. This kid was in his element!

Zo and Ara were happy in the Arms of lovely Owen cheerers.


We all had a great hour! It was so special to see our boy play tball, 2 years out from his last heart surgery. It was a full circle moment for many of us, realizing how quickly that time has passed, and how well he is doing now. We can't wait for his next game!
