We had a pretty busy weekend, and instead of going into the details of the places we went and the friends we saw, I thought I’d just share some snapshots! I find that I’ve been leaving our camera behind a lot lately… while it takes great pictures, I’ve been lazy and just love the ease of using my phone to take quick snapshots and instantly share them online. I used to wonder what all the fuss was about Instagram, but after a few months of using it, I’ve been bitten by the bug and am now admittedly an avid Instagrammer!

So if you already follow me on Instagram, these pictures are old news, but here are some of our memorable moments from the past weekend!

Happy birthday Brent!
Happy birthday Brent! On Saturday, we got to celebrate Brent's 30th birthday over in Dublin with amazing food and great company.

Thanks Brent and Estella for having us over to celebrate with you all! πŸ˜€

On Saturday evening, we drove into the city to have a sushi dinner at Sanraku with Stephanie, who has been one of my dearest friends since college! She’s getting married in late September, and I couldn’t be happier for her! So glad that we could have dinner and catch up before she left to fly back to DC.

We miss you already, Steph!

 

On Sunday morning, Mio got to have some fun playing with a bunch of other tots in San Leandro…

In the afternoon, we went to Hayward to attend baby Easton’s first birthday party!

Happy birthday, Easton!

It’s been pretty hot lately, so I’ve been having fun dressing Mio up in cute little sundresses. We’ve been staying cool indoors while enjoying frozen fruit! πŸ™‚
