Happy Birthday Daddy

Marc & Luke Nov 19 2011
In November we celebrated Marc's 4?th birthday! We took a last minute over night vacation to Encinitas which is a few minutes away from San Diego. We spent the day strolling their main street and did some light shopping. Luke really enjoys hotel stays as he gets to sleep with mommy and daddy in a large bed and gets to freely crawl around a big room. It was nice to get away, even if it was just for one night.

Happy Halloween 2011

We celebrated Halloween at our usual spot...10th street in Manhattan Beach at Casa de McDermott  (aka our friend kari's house).  As usual Kari had a delicious spread of cheeses and wine. Although this is technically Luke's 2nd Halloween, last year he was just over a month old and wasn't really into the festivities. This year he really enjoyed people watching. We also took him to a few houses and scored some good candy for mommy and daddy!

30 Weeks and Baby Gifts!
Thank you to all those who came out to our babyshower. We are very grateful to those who came all the way from Northern California (Berekly and San Jose) Luke will be very lucky to be surrounded by such wonderful friends and family. A special thanks to my sisters for putting together a beautiful baby shower, Shelley for making the cake, Irene for the homemade jamaica to add to our authentic mexican meal, Gaby for her veggie enchiladas and Linda and Bernie for providing all the fresh fruit!
We received such wonderful gifts and there is no doubt Luke will be the best dressed infant in town! He will definitely be stylin' with all the 'music' onesies he received. (RUN DMC, PINK FLOYD, BEATLES, AC/DC)

WE ARE FAMILY

UNO FAMILY REUNION

JUNE 25, 2010

There is nothing quite like family. Culture and heritage are very important to us. We both embrace this with open arms and will teach our son that family is always #1 and its important to know where we came from.

We attended the Uno family reunion held at the Japanese American Museum in Little Tokyo. The Uno family is Marc's maternal grandfathers side of the family. It was exciting to look at old family pictures dating back to the early 1900's and learn about the Uno family history and meeting many of Marc's distant relatives. The reunion consisted of a guided tour of the museum, a sushi making lesson, and a talent show.

I am extremely lucky to have my family so close and to be able to see them often. Something i sometimes take for granted.
