only best ten days I've had in california - did so much too. all those pictures will tell you.. well, I didn't shoot at every events but at least some of them and I had to pull only a few pictures from each events .. I have zillion pictures! we went to dog park daily, saw 17 friends out of 19, cruising the bay area well.

pardon me there are most of my niece, emily - I got to see her most of time and I've never seen her crying, a reallyreally good baby! she loves laughing.. hope you enjoy!

Great pictures! The quilts are all amazing, love the fishy ones, and the kitty one is adorable, too! And yup, Emily sure looks like Auntie Gina! What a good baby, at least in the pictures she always looks happy!
