Bryan's Lion

Three years ago, Bryan won one of the top awards in his field, a Bronze Lion at the Cannes International Advertising Festival. Think of the massive number of commercials that play worldwide..... Those commercials are divided into categories (i.e. Household Products, Alcoholic Drinks, Sweet Foods and Snacks, etc.). It was a once in a lifetime thing! Well.......Actually - Bryan won another Bronze Lion this year!!! Yay!! I'm so happy for him!

My Mom came to visit in late June! We had a blast! We had a very busy week which included Mom helping me weed the raspberries, boating (waterskiing, tubing & knee boarding), football camp for Griffin & Isaac, movies, golf and piano lessons, Cub Scout Den mtg, a night at the A's vs. Giants, girls' night out with my girlfriends (Mom included) for a dinner and a movie....

She was a great help and it was fun having her here.
Thanks Mom!

We spent this past Saturday afternoon and evening celebrating my Grandpa Hagman's 90th Birthday party. All of my brothers and sisters and families met up at our Dad's home for the party! It was great listening to my Grandpa's WWII Flight Navigator stories. He is a sweet man. I appreciate all of the kindness and love that he has shown me through the years. He always made me feel like one of his own grandchildren. It was a beautiful day.
