mb!

we spent last weekend in manhattan beach, where my mom grew up. after bapa passed, my mom sold his house in palos verdes and re-invested in a little beach house and we are super excited to now have a place to hang out near the beautiful beach. manhattan is such a nice place to go to get away from the fog in the bay.

stella was loving the beach all weekend. she got to play at the super fancy totpark they have walking distance from the house. besides the lame dad's in their cargo shorts (literally every dude in the same outfit)... it was a pretty cool scene. the beach is about 7 blocks from the house and we walked there everyday to get our fill of fun in the sun and waves. stella was most interested in chasing the seagulls but definitely played in the water and it was nice to see that she wasn't afraid at all. we can't wait to hang out here over the years. we love mb!

salami

we went up to the cabin for the famous salami golf tournament, sorry to say that we don't have any pics from the dinner that night where stella partied like a rockstar! (also, rob's team came in second place so we did get yummy salami to take home) but here we are lazying around the cabin. isn't this blue romper the bomb!?!
