Our day at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach...

We got an education by Gracie. "Now mommy, that is a Nemo fish, and that is a Dory fish..."













Gracie had a great time petting the sting rays...













What? A shark? Nah, daddy told me that this was a dolphin!













Here's Gracie standing in from of a mine that hasn't exploded...yet.













Just kidding, it's just a weather bouy.

Gracie's first day of Gymnastics...

Head over heels...
Gracie doesn't know what's going on.
One second she's looking at the blue wall.
Next thing she knows, mommys upside down...

















Balancing on the beam seems to be a walk in the park...













Rolling practice...a key fundamental in Gymnastics, but also great practice for rolling down grass hills...

But what do you do when life hands you tomatoes?

Look at the size of this guy...

If I take my shoes off...can I make ketchup?

...Garden fresh









I don't even really like tomatoes...

Happy 4th of July!

Yup, we got the matching shirts and everything...

Gracie's day at the Huntington Library...

A pose by the cactus? OK. I'm ready for my close up Mr. DeMille...
























You want me to lean back? OK...

You want me to follow the little white rabbit down this path? OK...


Nice Puppy. Mommy can I take him home? OK...

"What's in there?"
"It's a secret garden"
"Some secret, there's like 100 people in there".

Peas...

Earlier in March, Grace and Karen planted vegetables. These are fresh sweet peas from our garden...

Smile for the camera that's sitting in a creek balancing on a rock, just before falling in...

Concentrate...otherwise daddy will drop me in the creek like he did with the camera...
