Our daughter, Katie's birthday was July 22nd.
She just turned 29, I can't believe how fast time flies.
She and her boyfriend, Harry came to visit from Portland, Oregon.
We celebrated dinner out and
I made a chocolate cake for dessert.
I found this
Nordic Ware Vintage Bundt Cake Pan
at Williams Sonoma.
The cake always turns out so pretty!
Katie and Harry
The next day
we took our boat out on Mission Bay with the family.
The weather has been in the 90's in San Diego.
Perfect weather for swimming in the Bay.

It was so nice having the family together to celebrate
Katie's birthday!
Stan, Maggie (our lab), Kaylee (Scott's girlfriend), Scott, me, Harry (Katie's boyfriend), Katie and Carly.
The next day was so hot,
we all went swimming in our pool.
It was a wonderful weekend with the family.
Hope you're all having a great summer
with family and friends too!!
