It's Independance day and I can think of no better way to spend it than with family and friends. My daughter Claire chose to ride her razor in the West Lake Pond Parade, while my son Jackson rode in a two seater wagon with his buddy Shea. As usual, it was a fun family adventure mixed with friends we hadn't seen in a while and some professional networking - it's always a nice crowd!



Yes, that's Jason (my husband) wearing an Old School Republican shirt. I'm not sure how well that went over in Santa Cruz! And yes, that's my 2 year old son Jackson with a red faux-hawk perched on his shoulders. As you can tell we really get into our Holiday decor!

After a short pause for naptime, we will hit the BBQ scene at the family farm. This will be another mix of family and friends with tons of food!



From my virtual world to yours, I wish you ALL a happy and safe holiday. I do wonder how you plan to spend your 4th of July?
