Luke still loves his guitar

Rockin' out on his ukulele as usual.

Dinner at Roy's

This evening we borrowed a friend's convertible and drove down to Carmel - The Inn at Spanish Bay - for a great dinner at Roy's.
Good food, great scenery, and even a guy walking around the course playing bagpipes.
and we took a stroll on the beach at sunset.

Happy Father's Day!

Capitola Monday

The best place to recover from Surgery is the Capitola beach. Especially on a Monday.
Luke had his first kite flying lesson.
And we played in the waves. Luke has no fear, he sprints into the water any chance he gets.
Luke enjoyed blowing sand out of his spoon,
and trying to jump into the river...
We ate breakfast on the wharf. I still can't open my mouth all the way, but I was able to eat small bites of my omelet.

Stanley tools

My grandma's last name is Stanley so we like Stanley tools.

Grammy in town to help during my recovery

I'm feeling good and getting a lot of time to read and watch movies. Still drinking my strained food through my wired shut teeth. Glad Sharon is here to help Natalie and keep her company while I'm out of commission. Looking forward to getting the wires cut tomorrow.

Day after jaw surgery

Surgery went well and I'm feeling good. Although it's a little hard to eat with my jaw wired shut. The masks you see are a cooling mask for keeping the swelling down and an oxygen mask to help me breathe. Heading to Sacramento today so my family can help take care of me and Luke while I'm healing.

Half Moon Bay Surfing

Beach day with a couple other families.
The guys did a little surfing. I'm so out of shape I barely caught a few before I had to head back to shore. Luke had a good time playing with all the other kids.Then he crashed and took a good nap before we headed home.

Craig's Surprise Birthday Party

Joy planned a great surprise party for Craig, and it was very kid friendly.
Luke couldn't get enough of the inflatable jumpy gym thing...
and playing in it with his friend Annelise.His favorite part was throwing all the balls out.

Play Date at some new park with water fountains

Luke tried to drink the water from the fountain each time it shot up. Big slide!..
