It feels just like yesterday that Parker was born and yet, he's already more than a year old. I remember my parents always gushing over pictures of us when we were little and now I find myself doing the same, missing my sweet little baby. Even though I miss those days, I wouldn't trade them because I have such a sweet little boy now and it is so much fun to watch him grow. This first picture is from last year in August when we went to Pebble Beach. In an effort to show you how much Parker has grown, we tried to recreate the same picture this year so you could see the differences. I didn't have this first picture with me in Pebble so we were just guessing when we took the second one. We got close enough.
A few of us went on a drive down to Big Sur. Look at this beautiful beach! I love the color of the water.
Brandon and David were trying to climb this rock. They were not successful... too much water. It kept filling up waist high before they could attempt the climb.
Parker loves his Aunt Jamie!
Our second day at the beach
I took Parker down to the water's edge. He loved watching his Daddy play in the water. It was a little too cold for Parker though, because he would start shivering every time the water touched him.
SHARK! Just kidding... there were four or five dolphins swimming near the guys.
The boys spent the whole week imitating each other. They were hilarious!
The boys were sharing some kind of inside joke. It may have involved unkind hand gestures.
Parker always sticks his tongue out when he's concentrating. He gets that from my Dad!
Note to self: Sand tastes terrible!
Uncle Preston helped the boys build sand castles and then he dug a big hole for them to sit in. That entertained them for awhile.
This was in the backyard of the house. Overall, we had a great trip!
