Family and Friends...

We met all most of the Holmstrom's down in Murrieta for Jared's blessing. So fun to get all the cousins together, and their numbers are growing!

 

 

My friend Scott got married last week. It was a beautiful wedding and his new wife Laurie is GORGEOUS!! I couldn't be more thrilled for both of them.

 

 

Ok, I dont go to too many non-LDS weddings so it was a little weird for me to take pictures during the ceremony, but everyone else was and so I thought why not? What a fun moment for me to capture (with my cheap digital camera)

Battle for the Bell....

Ok so when I went to FVHS some 10 years ago, the bell game was a HUGE deal. It was a football game which we played against our rival Edison. We had a great football team so we won all 4 years I was in high school. Fast forward 10 years and we are back in Huntington and Brian serves in the young mens in our ward. As an activity half our ward got together, had a tailgate party before hand and headed into the stadium. I even made this cute shirt for Jovi to wear, I was pretty excited. Then the game started and I quickly noticed FVHS is not what it used to be. Haha, needless to say, the game was not even close and we left early with out tail between our legs. Oh well, we had fun anyway and Jovi looked pretty cute if I say so myself!

 

 

Fall Activity

We headed on up to the Irvine Great Park to ride the chain, take fun pumpkin patch pictures and to introduce Jovi to ponies. As you can see from the pictures below, that went over swimmingly! I know he looks miserable but I think deep down he really was enjoying himself.

 

We did manage to have fun with some other activities. Happy Fall!

 

Aaaahhhh 10 YEARS!!

I never thought this day would come, let alone that I would actually go. Yup, it was recently my 10 year reunion. A friend of mine was in charge of it so I was suckered into going. Anyone that I had any desire in seeing I still keep in contact with so I really just went to support and hang out with my friends. I only took a few pictures because 14 months after having Jovi I am still not a fan of the camera.

CJ and Me. He will be graduating law school next year, I couldn't be more proud of him.

 

Katie and her husband Joel. Their little boy Kayden and Jovi have become great buddies.

 

Me, Erica and Katie

 

They also had a photo booth there and we got some great pictures with that, including some with my friend Alyson. Maybe someday I will figure out how to scan those and I can add them to this post. Someday....

Food...

This little man LOVES food. He will eat just about anything that we put in front of him, its super fun for us. This past week I gave him some spaghetti. I decided to just strip him down and let him go for it....priceless!

 

 

We recently decided to head downtown and take advantage of the awesome sunset we were having. And who can go downtown without getting ice cream?! Not this guy!

 

 

Welcome Jared!

We were able to pay a little visit to Steve and Rebecca's to meet the newest Holmstrom. Jovi loves his new cousin Jared, even though the feeling may not be mutual just yet...

 

Labor Day

For labor day we decided to go down to Central Park and watch a Civil War reenactment...it was awesome! I had no idea that they even did this and they were super into it. It was super fun to watch.
