Riley Crashes Boys Night Out - Part Two

After the factory tour, Riley and the boys ate at "The Hop Yard". Riley enjoyed lentil soup - and is doing some antics for the camera.

After dinner, they headed to a Shark's game in San Jose. The game was three hours, but held Riley's attention for the entire game. (I would not have had such a long attention span!). She especially loved the Shark's mascot and the drum that he'd beat.

A Long Time Coming.....Brewery Tour

Last week Riley got to go on an grown-up -boys-night-outing with her daddy and her BFF, Ian.

I enjoyed a night at home, catching up on work-outside-of-work projects, drinking tea and enjoying a bizarre sense of calm!

The first stop on the night-out, was a free tour at the Budweiser factory in Fairfield. It was less than educational for the adults, who already know a lot about the process, and whose tour guide, did not. However, Riley enjoyed seeing the bottling line, touching the tanks and tasting a beech wood chip.

Ridiculous PJ Mitt

We took these photos while trying to get some front and profile photos for Riley's Tiger-Woods-Golf-game generated character. She preferred to make ridiculous faces for the camera.


Out for a Winter Walk

Last week I took these photos of Riley getting ready for a winter walk. It's a struggle getting her dressed for cold weather. We try to simultaneously put on her hat, blankets, and mittens (if we're feeling adventurous).Invariably she will remove some of the items while we're securing the next item.
