Bibi's kitchen after her birthday!!!

Thank you all for making my birthday so special! I got showered with treats, cards, flowers and messages from all different technologies. What a special day!

Bibi's birthday evening celebration!

Our Bible Study group also got pampered with another Croatian cake and yet another candle. Thank you, Suzana! You're awesome!!!

Bibi's birthday - April 21st!

In the morning Bibi & Noemi got together and had a great time at the Library and a nice last minute lunch at home

Bibi's friend Suzana stayed up until 2 am making this absolutely yummy Croatian confection (gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free!) Very special day! Hubby also showed up with a beautiful flower bouquet to wrap up a great day!

Suzana treated Bibi to dinner at Whole Foods in Fresno and a nice time to catch up sans kids

We had a beautiful play date in Exeter with Saze and her girls. They had fun hanging out in the sun and playing on the grass. Good times!
The next day, Gloria & Ken treated our friends and us to a beautiful birthday lunch celebration at their home. We enjoyed delicious food, great company and an absolutely perfect day. We're blessed indeed!!

Our finished project

Our backyard is almost finished! We'll put in a little garden and colorful accent pots in the future but the main things are done. The girls enjoy playing in the backyard and so do our guests. We can't wait to enjoy our Meyer lemons, apricots and peaches next year!

Healdsburg Square & Rio Lindo Academy

Seeing our wedding reception caterer, Ted Lang, after 10 years!
Taking a picture right outside the Rio Lindo SDA Church where we got married almost 11 years ago ...
Momma Pride and the girls: love at first sight. We had such a great time hanging out together and catching up!
