Welcome to Pasadena

Well, actually we are in South Pasadena but it is pretty much the same thing. We are slowing getting settled and I think it is taking so long because we have already been playing so much! Matt's school starts on the 25th so we have been trying to really enjoy our three weeks to play. But this area is so beautiful and we are really enjoying getting to know our way around. Does this house look familar? The Father of the Bride was filmed about a mile from our apartment and yes, it feels just as cozy and perfect in real life as it does on the big screen!
Another famous home only about a quarter mile from us is Bill Gate's father's home in National Treasure. That was harder to explain than I thought but did you get that?
We have definitely been hitting the beach. Manhattan beach and Malibu are two beaches close to here that we have gone to. Crew loves it and Matt is loving having an ocean closer too.
Remember a few months ago when I mentioned Matt was making a board? Well, he finished it and against his will I am posting a picture because I am really amazed at what he created and it was fun to see him take it out on its "maiden voyage" Luckily it floats! And he also got to catch some pretty good rides on it too.Crew sitting back and soaking in some sun. Let's be honest, he needs it!


Something new Crew is into is "dip" He loves Ranch dressing and this is a picture of him after licking his plate clean. Now we just need to get him to eat the veggies that you are suppose to dip in it!
