Another Strike Out Violence day has come and gone. Another amazing event and everyone got some fun and meaning out of it. Too bad the Giants couldn’t pull off a win! Here are some photos from our day. 
Here we are waiting to go onto the field. Beautiful family shot.
Me and Ella before the ceremony. We were right there when the Diamondbacks were taking batting practice!

Sweet kiss caught on the jumbotron.

Sweet beautiful Ella.
On the kindergarten line! Ella and Emmi are very happy that they are in the same class.
Here’s one that I took from the other side. Ella is so sweet!
On Tuesday night, we went to the Giants game. Ella wore her Brian Wilson jersey that she got as a giveaway at a game a few weeks ago. The Giants lost but we had a lot of fun.
On Wednesday, mommy stayed home with Ella and they had a very fun adventure. Ella has been asking to go on this “Ride The Ducks” thing that goes on land and water. Ella and mommy met the boat thing downtown and went on the duck ride! Here is Ella in a taxi heading downtown. She loves riding in taxis.
Ella and mommy stopped at an art gallery while waiting for the boat. Ella decided that she wanted to quack at the art.
Ella playing a good tourist.
Here’s the Ride the Duck boat!
Getting ready for the joruney.
About to drive into the water.
The captain.
Beautiful city views from the Bay.
Ella has been begging for roller skates. Sunny found these skates that have 3 wheels on each skate. Ella loves them but she is also so scared. She doesn’t let go of us!
Fun with friends on the crazy swing after soccer camp.
Ella, mommy and Emmi. Emmi and Ella had a sleepover here on Wednesday night.

One last swing…
Ella loves all the big kids at camp and they love her right back!

A few of the animals we saw at the zoo today.
Ella loves the flamingos. We saw a few of these guys eggs a few months back!
One of the coolest parts about the SF Zoo is that there are peacocks wandering all over the place.
Our beauty at the zoo today. Sweet Ella is really growing up.
All smiles at Rock Band Land camp.
Beautiful Ella a few hours after the performance.
Ella hanging at the pool and hot tub in Cazadero this weekend where we spent Michael’s birthday.
Ella helped out with Phyllis and MIchael’s dog Artie.
Looks like a serious game of fruit ninja going on.
Michael trying to blow out his trick candles. Phyllis thinks it’s funny.
Ella really thought it was funny. Seems like Charlie and Hannah were bored and mommy was slightly entertained.
First day of soccer camp…big smile at 9:00 in the morning.
Playing with the big kids on a cool swing.
Ella and mommy were the first ones to arrive this morning. Ella had a blast on the swing.
An early morning climb for Ella and her friend Maya.
More fun times on the big swing.
Exploring with tap shoes on. This was their nature walk of the day.
Check out the bubble over their heads…I wonder what it says.
KJ was great at the bubble wand. He did it all by himself.
Juliet was an incredible bubble maker. She was so patient.
Towby chilled out with all of us.
A very happy Ella.
Watching the popsicles get made and the finished product.
Ella got upset with Sunny because Sunny started to take some of Ella’s stained glass art off our window. It was old and fading and we had discussed taking it off but I guess Ella wasn’t ready for it. The translation of the note is: Mommy – Ask for things before you do it when it is mine.
Here is an up beat message from Ella…I love it, yes I do
Searching for the perfect fruit at the farmer’s market.
I love Ella’s new tooth missing smile.
So we were walking home on the water, right behind the ballpark where the boats are and we hear these seagulls yelling at another bird. The other bird yelled back and it was an intense yell. All of a sudden, it took off flying – it had a huge wing span and then it landed high up in a tree. In my mind I was thinking, “What the hell was that? An ostrich? (I know they don’t fly – Ella told me!) Ella looks up and says, “Oh my god, a heron.” Of course, she was right!
Ella and her buddy Lou Seal.
Great balance! Ella is getting to be pretty good at taekwondo.
I took these pictures at around 6:30 tonight. Ella’s tooth was so wiggly…we knew that it was just a matter of time before…
Ella’s tooth came out!
Here is Ella’s sweet little tooth. It is now in possession of the tooth fairy. Ella will wake up to 2 gold dollar coins.
Ella doing an amazing job at gymnastics camp.

Happy family after the Giants won!
