What a beautiful day for a birthday!
Our little Monkey turned 5 today. We took her on a hike with our friend Tanda where we had mountains on one side and a view of the coastline on the other side. She got a special dinner and her own antler before bed. And of course we sang Happy Birthday to her! 🙂
A time for thanks, family, many games of Setters of Catan, a deep-fried turkey, and love.
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
That’s right, Casey is now an Uncle! We welcomed Molly’s son Anthony on November 8th, 2013.
I painted this sign for him and gave it to Molly at her baby shower.
We can’t wait to see him grow up!
Remember the turtle article that I co-wrote and was published in Chelonian Conservation and Biology? Well, Bio Accumulation, a science blog, featured our paper and research!

My Mom and I headed out to the Santa Barbara Polo Fields early this morning to take a look at Oprah’s “yard sale.” It was an auction full of her personal belongings to benefit her Leadership Academy Foundation. We arrived super early so we had time to preview the items and take our pick of seats.
We were happily surprised to find out that Oprah herself was there! She came out at the start of the auction and stayed for about an hour. She took bids and told funny stories about the items. She got the crowd fired up for some bidding wars, which was entertaining to watch. Before she left, she posed for a few minutes for pictures. We were less than 3 feet away! It was a very fun morning 🙂
