more from California

My dad and Sue arrived today and are visiting for a week so I need to get some more CA pics up in order to make room for Grandaddy and Nana pics this week! Meghan and Charlotte get here on Thursday too so we'll have a super-fun houseful. YAY!

Here are a few of my faves from our last day out there. Brent had never been to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk before so we made a point of stopping there one evening. It was pretty much abandoned since all of the rides and concessions weren't open for the season yet but that made it even better for photo ops! Two of Sarah's favorites peeps joined us for our adventure - Aunt May May and Aunt Lori ("ooohOReee")...











Thanks for looking...even if you all HAVE been slacker commenters lately... ;)

I love the bright colors on the boardwalk! Sarah looks like she had a lot of fun on your adventure!

Oh, you brought back some memories of my family's XC trip in 2005 from Charleston, SC to Santa Cruz and back- we went to the boardwalk, it was summer and BUSY!! I also loved the colors and got some great shots- your first is my favorite...

Slacker here. I stop by your blog daily but rarely comment, sorry. It must be frustrating to know you get so many hits and very little feedback! But I want you to know how much I adore your work and your witty bloggings. Your pictures and family are so beautiful! Someday if you ever get back to CA and venture more towards Napa I would love to have you photograph my family!:)
And, props for doing photo a day! I rarely have time to *think* about taking a picture, much less have a blog devoted to it!

I visit your blog a lot but never comment...so I am a slacker :-) I just admire your work and love looking at your pictures. Looks like you had a great time!

I'm a slacker! I check out your pigbear blog and photography blog daily but I never comment! I love them both. I admire your picture taking and try to pick up little tricks from the pictures I see on your blogs! If you are ever in Nebraska I would love for you to photograph our family! Have a great day!

So pleased to see the photos. What a big girl, your Sarah is. Glad you were able to show Brent the Boardwalk. I did "my" time during my teen years...great fun!

Love you all...

And Pigtails on Pigbear. Nothing could be cuter.

I've been trying to post on your photog site so you don't feel so neglected there!! (the other comment from "Jennifer" is not me!) Too bad the Boardwalk was closed - they have the best corn dogs!! But it definitely made for better picture taking. No pictures from the beach?

Hey, hey, hey. . . you can't call us slacker commenters when you've been a slacker poster :-)

Glad to see some pictures of your trip. They are beautiful, as usual!

Love all the color in the first two. Looks like a wonderful time. Enjoy your family.

I am officially de-lurking myself! I love visiting your blog and looking at your pictures- they are gorgeous! I really love the colors in these- the pinks are so vibrant!
