Erin's Bridal Shower: Last month, Elena and I went to my parents' for a quick weekend trip. Erin has been my best friend since I was 5 and she is getting married soon! Erin and I were so lucky to grow up across the street from each other and even luckier that our parents still live in the same houses! She is definitely family to me. We grew up together. She was a constant in my life during all those awful times when you're trying to figure out where you fit in. We did almost everything together back when we both lived at home. When I left for college, we had to sort through our closets to try to remember which clothes were mine and which were hers.
Erin has such a good heart and is such an fun yet genuine person. I'm so glad to know that she will always be a part of my life no matter where we live/what else is going on/how old we get. :)
Erin is marrying Bami (who is a great, great guy) in July and I was so happy to be able to make the drive for her shower. My doctor gave me the okay the morning I left. He had told me not to travel by plane anymore back in April and I was worried that he wouldn't want me to drive home again even though it's only about 4 hours, but he said it was okay. The shower was very well attended and the bride-to-be looked so happy and beautiful. It was a wonderful afternoon.

I always take the camera too because I love documenting how much Elena loves it - hopefully baby boy will feel the same way. I have even put Elena to sleep listening to a cd of waves since she was a baby. I have always LOVED the ocean.

The water was warmer this time then our last trip in April. We compared it to August in Santa Cruz. :) This is a pic of my sister Bethany and Elena:

Hanging out with family: With Adam home from college, it feels like a family reunion to go home now that Bethany lives so close to Mom and Dad. If only Andy and Shiree were closer...Granny playing with Elena:
