ONE YEAR CELEBRATION!!

Eric and I had the privilege of driving down to celebrate Lauren's one year sober birthday!!

We had an awesome weekend and on the last day grabbed some photos!!

 Dalton (sober 2 years - we celebrated his "birthday" too!), Lauren, Eric and me.

 Our treasure!

 No day goes by without a few practice swings!!

 Lauren and Dalton

 Lauren and her daddy!!

Lunch at an amazing Thai place in Malibu with some of Lauren's dear friends!!

We are so proud of Lauren's day to day walk and we are amazed and humbled by the friends that sit at this table in support of her and each other.  Love you all!

Memories

Recently I have been looking through old pictures!  So much fun.  Here are a few pics that bring back so many memories!!

 

Lauren and Allie enjoying some Ice Cream.  They are about 4 and 2 in this picture!  This is from when Eric was in residency and we lived in Loma Linda in Southern California.  We had so many backyard picnics on this table!  I loved the table cloth because you could just wipe it clean!  I remember this being a time when the girls wanted to dress themselves.  They also loved to make homemade ice cream and eat it out of cones.  What a mess!!!  I would love to have some of these moments back!!

Hanging out in Hawaii at my parents house one summer.

At the Clovis Balloon Festival - this picture was taken about 5:30 AM.  After the balloons launched, we rushed home in time to see them land in the field next to the house near Woodward Park.

On a family hike in Carmel when the girls were in High School

This is one of our Christmas card pictures.  The girls were in high school - Lauren was a junior and Allie was a sophomore.  Not to sure what's up with my hair - but oh well!!!

Visiting Lauren

The past few days Allie, Jed and I had such fun visiting Lauren!  We spent Thursday evening and Friday with her, headed off to San Diego for the weekend (Lauren came down on Saturday) and then back to her house on Sunday and Monday!

We had such fun and here are a few pics from the weekend!!

We did get a family pic, but I'll post that later!

 Allie and Lauren our two beautiful girls!

 Grandma with baby Jed - he showed off his mad swimming skills to Auntie Lauren!

 Lauren and grandma sure do love little Jed!

Jed was so happy to see his Auntie!!  She was happy to see him too!
