You can tell she's pretty happy about it too!

 

366 days ago...

 

My wife gave birth to a lovely little girl. Well, at the time, she looked like a lovely little raisin, but still...

Happy Birthday, Lily!

The whole happy family

 

Matt, Josie, Roman and Whitney!

We're really eager for Grandpa Gary and Grandma Regina to arrive!

 

Welcome to our latest nephew, Roman!

 

Think Matt (Dad) is excited?

Wouldn't have believed this until I saw it.

Busy. Happy. Says it all.

 

Twas a lovely day.

 

And we got someone to take our picture!

It's a great view

 

Especially over the fountains.

Lisa and Lily are ready for the ride

 

Sterling Vineyard uses a cable car lift to get you there!

 

Owen is slightly apprehensive about it...

Well, it's obvious...

 

It's the MOST WONDERFUL DRUGSTORE, in St Helena, CA. We went up to Napa Valley for a night.

What is Lily smiling about?

 

Besides just having chewed on her toes?

Owen is ready to go.

 

Can you tell?

Anyone see the potential for trouble brewing?

 

Also, possible "owies"

Lily's favorite part?

 

Playing in the giant corn-box. Instead of sand, that's corn. They loved it!

Owen's favorite part?

 

The tractors and diggers behind the livestock stalls!!

Owen demonstrates the Electric Chicken dance.

 

Words simply cannot describe it.

Lily was amused by the giant animatronic tree...

 

I'm sure there'll be therapy later in life to deal with that.

Fish Hat!

 

Need I say more?

Why vets do NOT get paid enough...

 

Spot this woman's right arm...


UP TO HER SHOULDER, PEOPLE!!!

How to have fun at the State Fair.

 

Step 1. Bring a young child.
Step 2. Let young child walk an alpaca.
Step 3. Photograph step 2.

Went to play D&D this past weekend

 

And this is a fairly typical scene at my buddy Gene's house....

Or maybe this one...

 

Not sure...

Lisa and Lily

 

I think this will be my new desktop wallpaper...

Nanna Dee is also here...

 

Not that Owen is a big fan or anything...
