Terra's First Bike Ride

Tim took Terra to REI to shop for her first helmet...she came away with a cute pink one with unicorns on it. The next day we headed out to Glendora to go on a nice bike ride. Todd and Jake came along for the fun.
 Ok Dad I am outta here!
 And off we go.
 Trent loves riding his bike.
 Todd on his mountain bike.
 Jake and his crazy fitting helmet.
 And then there's me.
 Terra had a great time...not sure why her shoe is on her hand. She had fun telling Tim to Go Go Go!
It's a hard ride at the end to the top.
 The view at the top...Cogswell Dam.
Job well done for everyone.

Tour of California finishes in Pasadena

A few years ago we followed the Tour of California, which started up in Auburn and then traveled down the coast. That was a great week. In years since then we have seen a stage here and there. And then there was this time in 2012 when Tim and Trent saw the finishing stage of the Tour de France...not too shabby. Well, this year there was a stage ending in Pasadena and at the last minute we decided to go. We took the gold line a few stops to Holly Avenue, walked around the festival for a bit and then saw the end of the stage. The cyclist came by us 4 times and it was so exciting. We missed cheering for Dave Zabriskie, but we had Peter Sagan to cheer for and he won the stage.
Hanging out in the backpack waiting for the gold line.
Cutie!
Chillin' on the gold line.
Looking towards the finishing line.
We got a great spot in the shade to watch the race.
Here they come.
Another cutie.
Peter Sagan the second cyclist with Bradley Wiggins behind him.
The cherry to top off the day...Mark Cavendish signing autographs. 
Tim got his hat signed, so cool!

Little Miss Terra (17 months)

Terra had another photo shoot with Carie a few weeks ago in downtown Orange. Terra was a little feisty for the shoot and not really wanting to be cooperative, but as Carie always does she got some great shots.
Love her OshKosh denim overalls from our good friends the Sentlingers.
Nope, I won't crack a smile.
Giving Terra some love and encouragement...please just work with us.
So serious.
Outfit change, but no really change with her cooperating.
This girl has lots to say...
She loves finding things on the ground and usually putting them in her mouth.
Just chillin'
Exploring.
So inquisitive.
