California

We just got back from a FABULOUS weekend in California! We went down for Laura's (Adam's Sister) wedding and had such a great time! We arrived late on Wednesday and then headed off the next morning to visit our best friends, the Fransons, from there who live in Stevenson Ranch! We met them when we lived there and instantly became best friends! It was so fun to spend a few hours with them! Our kids and their kids get along SOOOOO great and had a blast playing all afternoon! Being with them makes us miss them SOOOOOOOOOO much!!! Thanks for a great afternoon guys!!

Annie, Kate, Drew, Lexi, Camille, Spencer, Garett (Logan didn't want to get wet on the tramp so he was standing next to me instead of being in the picture!)

Brothers separated as children! It's crazy how alike these two are!
Kate and Logan! All smiles!
Me and Frannie (that's what my family calls Julie since we have so many Julie's to keep track of already)

After spending the afternoon with the Fransons we drove out the Newbury Park to have a bar b que with the the LaBar's and the Weiss's!Both families are our good friends from Marcus and Millichap. Mitch LaBar is the one who first hired Adam and assigned him to Jonathon Wiess, who has been Adam's mentor and close friend since he started working there!

When Spencer was a baby we would babysit the LaBar's kids while Mitch and Susan went on their M & M trips! They have 5 kids and it was soooo fun to hang out with them! Susan is the most organized person on the planet and taught me how to run a household with lots of kids! The most valuable lesson I learned from her all those years ago was how to leave detailed, organized directions for babysitters when you are out of town! Anyone who has watched my kids for any length of time can definately attest to that, I'm sure! The Labars have a son named Garrett, who at the time we babysat was only 4 years old! He was the CUTEST kid ever and we loved him and his name so much that we named our Garett after him! This visit with them was the first time they had ever seen our Garett! It was sooo cute to see!

Seeing JW was great also! Unfortunately Jody couldn't be there but he brought Kevin with him! He is so grown up now! I can't believe that when we met them Kevin was 5 or 6 or something! Wow, does time fly! The Weiss's are such amazing people! They have ALWAYS been nothing but the most supportive friends to us! Adam and I are so blessed to have them as part of our lives! We love you JW's! Being around them and our other friends in Cali definately made us miss living there!
