Our Better Late Than Never Sedar

Our vegetarian sedar plate, complete with fake cow instead of shankbone!
Another lovely Passover with the Brown-Hauser Clan. This year we switched it up and had it at our place. The girl's beloved Aunt Liz and cousin Aleksy joined us as well. It was a sweet, relaxed, Sedar. Amara read for us, Justin played music and Havana just took it all in (she later told me she was shy.) We feasted on matzo ball soup, vegan chopped liver, salads and even had wild parsley from our yard (a last minute save thanks to Don!) for the ritual piece. We celebrated on the last day but hey, better late than never!

Alissa always comes up with great ideas. I loved these masks representing the plagues!






Our Siamese were feeling the vibe and hung out on the chairs nearby!






Takes to Aunt Liz for taking this photo. So rarely is there a photo of the four of us.

Roller Coaster Buddy

 Amara thought she wanted to ride the coasters at Legoland. But once on the ride she wasn't too sure.

Then she fell in love with the thrill of the sudden dips and sharp twists.

Annual WestCoCo Egg Hunt

Our WestCoCoMom's held their annual egg hunt this weekend. It's always a sweet, community based event that allows the little people to hunt eggs and to share some fun time with their buddies. This year, there were quite a few new families. Here are some of the little tots enjoying their sunny Sunday at the egg hunt (which is always held at the very peaceful Kennedy Grove.)





 



























Pinole's Most Wanted

 I came home from Bootcamp to find Luvey dressed like a bandit. It was one of the cutest things I had seen Amara do in a long time. (For those who don't know, Luvey and Elli, have been Amara's constant companions since she was just 6 weeks-Luvey- and 8 weeks-Ellie old.)

Even more adorable was how Amara had dressed up. I love the imagination and creativity that seems to be coming forth from her more and more as she grows.


17!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Havana is now 17! One more year until she reaches that milestone adulthood birthday. And while she is in her last year of childhood, Havana ...
