Oprah at Costco

(Technical disclaimer: This picture was taken by Makena today on Kyle's Blackberry.)
We were sitting at Costco, eating pizza and hot dogs when we noticed this paparazzi swarm by the registers. It was Oprah and Rupert Murdoch (Dole) shopping! Too surreal. Living here, we see celebrities quite often (my favorites were Tom Selleck and Wayne Gretzky), but this was just odd. 2 minutes later they were out the door and everything was back to business as usual.

Duke's

Valentine's Day we were supposed to go to Duke's in Malibu, but ended up suit shopping and grabbing a bite at the food court in the mall. Yesterday we decided we needed a beach fix-too much rain lately and we felt a little land (house) locked. So it was off to Duke's. It was SO gloomy at the beach, but warm enough to sit outside. We devoured a gigantic dish of Nachos and watched some dolphins swim by. Not a bad way to spend the afternoon. On the way home it started to rain.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Wedding Slide Show Link

The slide show for Katie's Wedding turned out beautiful! And long :) My second shooter Tanya from Austin, Texas (thanks again, Tanya, you did an amazing job) and I took lots of photos and watching the slide show makes me feel like I'm reliving the Wedding. What a special couple and what a gorgeous Wedding. Great friends and family, too. I'm certain they will have a wonderful life together.

Flower Farm Part 5

Here are 3 favorites of mine, with a little texture added for warmth. Can't decide which one I like best.

Fire Baby

Isn't it amazing how this little guys fits perfectly into his Daddy's fire helmet? Actually, he liked it so much, he was sound asleep in it for the longest time. Cribs are overrated :)

Flower Farm Wedding Part 4

These have got to be my favorite pictures from the Wedding. I'll let them speak for themselves.

Cozy Baby Boy-3 days older

Some more shots of little Rider. I returned 3 days later to take more pictures, specifically to take pictures of him with his daddy's fireman uniform. He had changed so much and looked so cute that I took "regular" pictures as well. I'll post the fireman pictures soon.

Flower Farm Wedding Part 4

Some more bridesmaids pictures and a collage of the entire wedding party, including a first glimpse of Erik. My favorite picture is the one of Katie with her flower girl, looks dreamy and hazy.
