Oakland Zoo and Traintown

Well we had both Aunt Sari and Grandma/Grandpa visit recently and had plenty of side trips and fun. To start, here are some pictures from the Oakland Zoo (and rides area) and Traintown (in Sonoma). We were also down in Redwood City at one of the public water park areas on a hot summer day. More pics to come soon!

It's a fairly big picset so enjoy!

Photo Shoot - Kensi and Garreck (May 2009)

Here is a brief Kensi/Garreck photoshoot courtesy of my brother-in-law, Gabriel (thanks!). This is from mid-May 2009 while Heidi was in Naperville:

One of my favorites is Garreck in his "Guitar Hero" pose (see left). Heidi actually had to hide behind the canvas dropback to hold Kensi up for these :)

There are also some Kensi pics up at her site KensiChong.com - direct link right here.

Chicago Pics from May 2009

Ok, I finally uploaded some pics to our Flickr account. These are from our visit to Naperville (outside of Chicago) in May 2009.

Hope you are enjoying the summer!

Site Fixes

Ok, I fixed a few issues with the blogger template:

1. Comment link and box not working.
2. Post timestamp not showing the specific date.

Let me know if you see other issues, thanks!

Having Fun at the Beach

Heidi and I thought it would be fun to take the kids to the beach today since the weather was going to be in the 80s. After some brief research, I found a place called Heart's Desire Beach in the Tomales Bay State Park - it's located outside of Inverness, CA in Marin. It's actually on the bay but more ideal for kids since the water is warmer and there is limited wind.

We also ended up going to Limantour Beach, which *is* on the coast. The beach and sand here were very nice, but Garreck was a bit intimidated by the huge waves and surf - oh, and the "hot sand" :)

Here are the pics from Flickr - April 2009 Hearts Desire and Limantour Beach
