As god as my witness, I will never be hungry again!

We grew our own food! ... If you count one tomato and one lime. (No, the lemon isn't ours. Blast!) Jeff and Marco picking the tomato (singular).
Please note the "progress" in our backyard. The fence, people, the fence! And our two potted life sources... tomato (still singular) and basil.
And just in case our backyard oasis doesn't pan out, Jeff made these individual Chicago-style pizzas.

Little Farm

Go here. That's all I can say. Little Farm in Tilden Park is just the cutest little spot. It's free, but BYOC - that is, bring your own celery (or lettuce) to feed the animals. Ducks, chicken, turkey, geese, goats, cows, sheep and rams. They even brought out goats and calves for petting.

He's been before, but this time Marco really loved it! I didn't take any pics because his beautiful date Willa took a little spill and was camera shy. Luckily, Marco likes tough ladies.

Here are some photos of Marco NOT sharing his Diego ball with Willa in the park afterwards.
Note: If you do decide to go, it's on the Berkeley side, far from the tunnel side. The opposite end from the Carousel and the Steam Train. I don't know why that place is so mysterious and directionally challenged.

Prom 2026

Flash forward to prom 2026 when all the good dates are taken and Marco has to take his friend's dumb little sister.This post in no way reflects the intelligence of Olive or our respect for her family.

Four More Years

Four years ago today we were partying on Catalina Island. We'll never forget that day. Thanks to our families that made it possible and special. Thanks to our friends that made it fun and memorable (depending on how much you remember.)
Thanks to my wife for being so great. I love this family we started that day.
