Summer Lovin', Happened So Fast

Well I must say, this summer is going by faster than you can say "call me maybe"! There has been so much going on lately, I feel like the entire month of July was jam-packed, and the coming months don't offer much relief. While there have been lots of downs lately, there have also been plenty of ups. Here are just some of the awesome things that have been going down:

A's game with Mended Little Hearts

More A's games

The San Francisco "Breast Fest" beer festival

So many beer sample, so little time

Swim lessons for Joaquin

Little monkey man

 Celebrating Holly and Jon's impending arrival



Spending time with besties

Taking tons of pics of this little guy (of course)

Memorial Weekend Outings

One of the reasons I love living in the Bay Area is there is always something to do... Whether it be an event, museum, theme park, sight-seeing, you name it... and being able to enjoy it through the eyes of a child makes just everything that much sweeter (even if it is a huge production just to get out the door when an 18 month old is involved).
On May 27th, the Golden Gate Bridge turned 75 years old. Naturally, there was a big festival thrown so Joaquin and I met up with Heather and Rob, and headed down to Fort Mason/Crissy Field to say "Happy Birthday" in person.

I am slightly obsessed with the "toy camera" effect on my new Canon

Soon to be Mr. and Mrs. Batzloff

Go Niners! (even though I am forever surrounded by Raiders fans!)

Me and my little man at the Golden Gate Bridge :)

The following day, we were lucky to have a day to spend with Jose, and decided to check out the San Ramon Wind Festival. Growing up, the Wind Festival was one of my mom's favorite events, and we used to go every year. I was very excited to share this little tradition with my own family.

Train ride #1

Big Slide!! The boys went on this ride as well

Train ride #2 (that little girl talked my ear off the whole time. So cute:) )
